GTA 6, the highly awaited after Rockstar Games action saga, begins to
talk about it and recently inflamed the canvas.
Two major news specialists and leaks in the video game revealed much
information around the sixth pane of the franchise.
This is Tom Henderson, an insider specialist in Call of Duty and
Battlefield, and Jason Schreier, the highly respected Bloomberg journalist.
If we believe their sources, GTA 6 is in development at Rockstar, and it
is also a little more knowledgeable about its content and on a potential
release date.
An exit date on the 2025 horizon?
It's every Twitter that is in emotion, and for good reason, Grand Theft
Auto is one of the most legendary franchises in the history of a video game.
As a reminder, GTA 5 recently crossed
the 140 million copies sold since its release in 2013, and still lives glorious
days thanks to a multiplayer GTA online frequently refreshed by many content
additions.
To say that GTA 6 is expected would be a euphemism, only Rockstar remains particularly silent about it. However, according to Tom Henderson and Jason Schreier, it seems that his exit would be scheduled for 2024-2025.
In addition, the American firm had to review its methods of development
because of a recent controversy surrounding its practice of the "crunch".
This is why Rockstar seems to have revised its downward ambitions with
GTA 6, especially in terms of the size of the card.
It is also partly why we should not
expect an output before 2024-2025. A more flexible calendar that should best
accommodate development teams, and ensure an output only on Next-Gen consoles.
We must also keep in mind that this
decision makes sense from a marketing point of view.
Today the console market is in full
transition between two generations and suffers from big supply problems.
That's why wait before the massive diffusion of new consoles in the
living rooms around the world before taking out a title like the next Grand
Theft Auto seems to be a reasonable idea.
GTA Gameplay 6
Always according to Henderson and Schreier, GTA 6 should take place in a
modern world, which contradicts the previous rumors about a universe in the
70-80s.
Indeed, a contemporary period would
more match the ambitions of online mode, offering many opportunities for
collaboration and partnerships with celebrities or labels, like GTA 5 online.
Another recent news concerns the GTA card 6. There should be several
different locations, including a remastered version of the legendary Vice City.
This card would be medium in size and should be "scalable",
which can be modified over events and content additions after launch.
It is also known that this sixth part, as its elder will include several
playable characters, including a woman, a first in the universe so far
masculine from the Grand Theft Auto.
An exit on which platforms?
- Although its release date is relatively distant, it would not be illogical to wait for GTA 6 only on new generation consoles.
- It is very likely that by 2024, these consoles are omnipresent on the market, and that it is the greatest possible hearing.
- Also, remember that the technical characteristics of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S seem much more adapted to an as ambitious title as the next Grand Theft Auto.
- As for a PC exit, it is very likely that it can take place one or more years after the output on consoles, if we rely on the model of GTA V.
