GTA 6 Release Date: All the latest details on the new Grand Theft Auto. Everything you need to know about the next game in Rockstar's biggest franchise, and all the GTA 6 news we can find.
When is the GTA 6 release date? It's hard to say since Rockstar usually releases a new record to the franchise every four to five years, which means we should have done that last year. However, as you know, we got Red Dead Redemption instead. This is unlikely to be a rough compromise, especially since we finally have Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC.
The previous game, Grand Theft Auto, was almost incredibly massive and entertaining. Unsurprisingly, we are so desperate for a GTA 6 release date. The game's sales figures are off the charts either, and player numbers remain impressive a few years after release. This is largely due to Rockstar's excellent and constant updates for GTA Online. So, naturally, we think a lot about what's coming next: GTA 6.
While Grand Theft Auto 6 has yet to be announced, we really hope there is news of GTA 6 coming soon. Our insatiable appetite for satire biting and good carjacking knows no bounds. We've rounded up all the latest GTA 6 rumors in one place with our suggestions for what we'd like to see, regardless of what form the new Grand Theft Auto ultimately takes. Below you will find everything we know about GTA 6:
RELEASE DATE GTA 6
When is GTA 6 coming out? If the typical chronology of the development of a series is approximately four to five years between entries, then we should have received GTA 6 in 2018. But since Rockstar is fully focused on Red Dead Redemption 2 and its own online take, it is in the air when we can expect it.
We know that when stuntman Tim Neff's resume surfaced claiming he had credits for Grand Theft Auto 6 and Red Dead Redemption 2, it turned out to be fake. In fact, it should have been obvious: the resume did not match Neff's IMDB page, had spelling errors, and was not immediately taken down by Rockstar once the story was widely known.
When we asked Neff for details, he said, “This is not my page, account or resume. I don't even know this site. I've been working on GTA 5 for a very long time and haven't done anything since then. Sorry for the confusion. Looks like I was trolled a lot on the internet. ”
This is also not the first time GTA 6 has appeared on someone's resume. A 3D artist who briefly worked at Rockstar's India subsidiary included the mention of GTA 6 on his resume before it was deleted. According to Michael Bibin, he worked on creating real-world concept cars for GTA 5 and GTA 6. GTA forum member ApolloThunder also noted that Michael was credited to the Red Dead Redemption 2 thank you page, which confirms the claim that he worked with Rockstar in the past, at least.
GTA 6 NEWS
We currently tend to wait most of the decade between new games like GTA and Borderlands, but that may not necessarily be the case in the future. In an interview with gamesindustry.biz, Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnik suggested that better development tools and larger teams can close these gaps. It could also mean that these “games might be a little shorter,” although they are still reliably supported after launch.
To soften the crunch time, another reason the next GTA might be shorter, as Kotaku says in his report, “One plan that management has made for the next game, a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, is to start with a mid-sized release (which will still be a big game by Rockstar standards), which is then expanded with regular updates over time, which can help mitigate stress and crunching. "Rockstar employees talk about the positive changes the company makes after it was scrutinized after crunch time over Red Dead Redemption 2. While there is still no timeline for GTA 6, this means the next GTA may be slightly smaller when it comes out.
In fact, we could all go home now: is Grand Theft Auto 6 out on, uh, PlayStation 2 yet? Last year, we took notice of the dubious GTA 6 box art above in a photo posted to Reddit from a bootlegging stand in Brazil. Using our well-researched nous report, we discovered that the art of the box might not be entirely legal. Either that, or the rock star is showing consoles from two generations ago some kind of unlikely love, and Summer Glau made her debut in her live-action video game.
Speaking of GTA 6 announcement hoaxes, Another one appeared in July 2018, courtesy of GTA Online. If you entered Rockstar's endlessly successful multiplayer mode around the same time, you may have seen a message that read “GTA VI Coming 2019.” This message only appears on the GTA Online platforms that are most vulnerable to hackers, so perhaps a particularly mischievous kind worked out how to place an ad on the Rockstar system. Also, there is very little news about GTA 6 around.
RUMORS OF GTA 6
The latest GTA 6 rumor comes from actor Jorge Concejo's online resume, who lists GTA 6 as the title, where he plays a character listed as "Mexican" from 2018. Concejo addressed and did not address the rumors on Twitter, simply igniting the fire with responses like, "I can neither confirm nor deny this. But I did read your tweet;)" and “although I read every message you send, Please know that due to the terms of the contract, sometimes I cannot comment on some projects, ”sounds promising.
Another GTA 6 rumor comes from Rockstar's tax filings about all things. TaxWatchUK reports that the latest published accounts of Edinburgh's Rockstar North show a huge increase in claims for tax breaks for video games. The report then goes on to say, “Studios may have interim claims against VGTR prior to game completion, and Rockstar's huge claims are likely related to production costs for GTA VI. games. "
Of course, there have been many job postings over the years too. Rockstar Leeds has posted a job posting for an environmental artist whose job will specifically be to "create and texture environmental assets for the largest and best open world environments in the industry." This may well indicate the development of GTA 6, although nothing more concrete can be gleaned.
At Rockstar North, they are looking for a character costume and wardrobe stylist who “deeply appreciates the history and cultural significance that clothing plays in society; from past eras to modern, global street styles and trends” - if this is for GTA 6, then it looks like we can go back in time, at least for some campaigns.
Twitter user @ Yan2295, a former Rockstar insider known to have leaked information in the past, drew attention to a number of potential hints circulating online.
New York-based rap group City Morgue posted an article on Instagram claiming to be collaborating with Rockstar on Summer 2020. We're betting this isn't for the Red Dead Redemption DLC, but hey, you never know for sure.
A photograph of an email purportedly written by location manager Leah Sokolovski, on behalf of the Rockstar Games development team, is circulating on Reddit and Twitter to visit the 'primarily ... interior spaces' in Florida so they can explore and photograph these locations to inspire in-game If it's legal, then it fits nicely with the Americas theory advertised by YouTube's Inside Gaming, which suggests we'll be visiting Vice City (Rockstar's Miami) and South America in GTA 6. The Vice City theory is even more credible due to the fact that the simple fact that we're talking about GTA VI ... VI-ce City? - No? It works so well.
As for when we can expect more news on GTA 6, actor Stephen Ogg, the voice of Trevor in GTA 5, mentioned on a Brazilian game show that we can expect GTA 6 "soon" and that "games take 7-8 years to do, do the math. " Okay, let's count. GTA 5 was released in September 2013, making the expected GTA 6 release date 2020 or 2021.
HISTORY of GTA 6
The history of GTA 6 can take any shape. In the Grand Theft Auto series, narratives spanned a wide range of ideas and connotations, from the cynical critique of capitalism depicted in GTA 4 to the relatively light and humorous GTA 5.
We don't know any specific bits of GTA 6's history yet. It remains to be seen if there will be multiple protagonists again, but we'd love to see how GTA 6 heralds the inclusion of GTA's first female protagonist. In an interview with The Guardian in 2013, Dan Houser explained why a woman is not played in GTA V and how the team might do so in the future.
“We didn't really think about it [GTA V] this time. This does not mean that we could not or would not want to. this character set is just what came to us: it wasn't "we have X and Y, so we need Z", we didn't try to do it from the checklist - I don't think it will ever give you something believable or attractive.
“In the future, maybe we'll make a game with a female lead? Certainly. We just haven't found the right game for this yet, but it's one of those things we always think about. It wasn't natural for this game, but definitely for the right game in the future - with the right themes, it can be fantastic. ”
We agree, of course. If a rock star could infuse a female protagonist with her typically anarchic sense of humor, she could become one of the great computer game players. And since last time we got a triple set of protagonists - the first for the series - why don't we have a little more variety in our main characters for GTA 6? Who knows, maybe this time they'll even be on the side of the law, like these GTA V modders.
MAP GTA 6
The rumor mill swirled with talk of GTA 6's London setting. But while England's big smoke is said to be the only non-American setting a rock star would consider, Houser seemed to debunk the rumor in a Guardian interview with him. He said: “I think for us, my gut feeling is that GTA London was cool for the time, but games were more limited back then. These days I think we would like to install the game in the UK, install in London , whatever, but I don't know if it will be a GTA game.
"I think there are a lot of great stories to tell about the UK, great showcase environments, great gameplay mechanics that might have to do with the UK - I just don't think it will necessarily be GTA."
TechRadar, citing an unnamed insider, claims that Rockstar was looking at Tokyo as a possible Grand Theft Auto setup around the time Vice City was in development. However, aside from the problems with installing the game outside of the US, the developer has also been pushed aside by a “problematic” road system. Of course, Rockstar already has a playset in Tokyo - you can see more of it in the Midnight Club 2 video below.
Another persistent rumor is that GTA 6 will not be limited to one city, but will cover the entire United States. Now, we have no doubt that Rockstar has the ambition or the dollars it needs to make this happen, but it will take too much driving - and therefore not enough heist - in our book.
There are several ways Rockstar can make this a reality for the GTA 6 map. First, the US GTA 6 could be a truncated version of a real-world country, as we found in the gameplay of Crew 2. Or, different cities in America could function as a quasi-open world - as related but separate game environments in The Witcher 3, one of the best RPGs on PC.
However, there are rumors that GTA 6 will take place in two locations. First, it's a rock-star version of South Florida Vice City, in other words. The bulk of the game is rumored to return to the setting of the classic 2002 series, but it is also claimed that some missions will take you to an unknown part of South America. This information suggests that the GTA 6 map will be a departure from GTA 5 one, in which Blaine County Los Santos has merged with no loading screens.
Imagine running away from the police after a high-octane robbery one moment and taking an artistic selfie in the Grand Canyon the next? Whatever Rockstar chooses to customize GTA 6, this rumor is tempting.
Regardless of which GTA 6 setting you choose, you can ensure that it showcases Rockstar's irreverent and cutting sense of humor, filled with a host of distractions to distract you from the game's core missions.
So what would we like to see in the GTA 6 setting? It would be great to see how GTA 6 travels to Nevada. Like Fallout: New Vegas world, only with a little less nuclear annihilation ... hopefully. Hangover-style it would be a lot of fun to rave in Las Vegas casinos and strip clubs. Just as long as we don't have needy friends like Roman from GTA 4 to babysit them.
GAME PROCESS GTA 6
If the rumor that a new game in the series could recreate the entire US is confirmed, there will be a huge number of events to choose from. But the surface area of the location is one thing, but whether it's fun to play GTA 6 is quite another.
Luckily, Rockstar then has a solid track record of delivering gameplay that keeps us coming back for more. If side missions kept us from the main story after many hours in the predecessors of GTA 6, the giant, full-size ones could keep us forever.
What innovations can the gameplay of GTA 6 provide? Maybe we'll see our new protagonist planning the assassinations, how we did the heists in GTA V? Something like Rocksteady first appeared with Batman: Arkham Asylum in 2009, in which we channel our detective powers to catch our enemies, ending the classic Grand Theft Auto car chase?
In GTA V, side activities ranged from daring banking assignments to rewarding rounds of golf and celebrity paparazzi hunting. The sheer popularity of GTA V's carefully planned co-op heists certainly means they'll be returning in GTA 6 in some form, and we can't wait to see what Rockstar comes up with.
TRAILER GTA 6
Since we don't know yet if this game exists, there are no GTA 6 trailers to show them. However, we have GTA V 4K gameplay, which is the closest to you at the moment. Luckily, Rockstar is pushing technological boundaries with every GTA title, so we can only imagine what GTA 6 will look like.
So, we don't know much about GTA 6 - trust us, we feel as bad as you do. Until then, enjoy our list of the best sandbox games on PC above.
