![]() (Image credit: Rockstar Games) GTA 6 release date: when could it be? Until then, we'll be gathering whatever info slips out the back door. Don't expect to get a full look at GTA 6 until Rockstar's feeling good and ready. GTA Online is still chugging along a decade after release, to the tune of half a billion dollars a year. Rockstar has no need to rush GTA 6 info out the door, however. Leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt, obviously, but that illicit footage gave us a good idea of what to expect from GTA 6: specifically, a return to Vice City as a pair of criminal protagonists. September 2022 saw a substantial leak of GTA 6 test build footage, which Rockstar confirmed as the product of a network intrusion. Of course, that hasn't stopped others from trying to do some illuminating of their own. For now, Rockstar's keeping us in the dark. Nice to know it exists, certainly, but we're still waiting on an official reveal of any real information about what direction Grand Theft Auto is heading next. My bet is early/mid 2025 though.GTA 6 might have spent years as a rumor, but Rockstar confirmed the inevitable sequel's ongoing development in a February 2022 announcement. There is no way we're getting it any time before mid 2024. 3) There are rumours about an RDR1 Remake, and IF they are true, once again it increases the time GTA VI's production will take, possibly 6 or maybe 7 years. ![]() 2) We had a pandemic going on, further increasing the time it takes. Now you have to keep in mind the fact that: 1) Rockstar stopped crunching, increasing the time it takes. RDR2 was probably in pre-production for 3 years as they worked on GTA V, and full production for 5 years, and that time is with crunch. GTA VI has been in full production for 3-3.5 years AT MOST. They had a couple of devs working on GTA Online and that's it, maybe a couple on GTA VI's pre-production but nothing more. This is incorrect, they had around 2000 employees in 2018. ![]() GTAO won't last forever, and I doubt if it doing well or badly affects the development of any game in the studios, I'll be honest and I'll probably be VERY wrong, but I think 2022 and early 2023 could be the last years active life of GTAO, I say this in terms of updates with heists and new missions, I dare say that they are already planning a final DLC for the game since 2020 to connect with the Online of the next GTA title, again, I can be totally wrong but I really doubt that GTAO makes any difference now, maybe I'm underestimating too much but ok. ![]() It may not seem like it, but if it weren't for those days when GTA5 was free on the Epic Store, I very much doubt the game would stay alive until today, the Online mode is increasingly infested with toxic players (Tryhards, Griefers) and modders, playing GTAO these days is literally leaving your IP free for hackers to see, and this is very dangerous, modders can ban you from the game forever and you can't do anything to defend yourself. GTAO is slowly dying, I can assure you that. (This is also why I don't think their anti-crunch argument makes sense to delay the game to 2025, rockstar usually makes games for 5 years this time they'd of had 8, and with my prediction even 9).įeel free to discuss and critique in the comments, I want to see how well my argument would stand.Įdit: For everyone saying "They're waiting for everyone to get a PS5/Xbox Series X", couldn't they just launch with PC immediately, instead of delaying it? It would bring in the money aswell as a console launch would and also people would still want to buy it, It's GTA it's a once-in-a-decade game at this point. Therefore I think a late 2022 first trailer and then a late 2023 - early 2024 release date is the most plausible. First by ~1,500 devs then supplemented by everyone coming off of RDR 2. RDR 2 was made by 2,000-3,000 devs, that would leave 1,500 developers completely free (discounting around 500 for GTA online and stuff)Īnd since GTA V was released in late 2013, we can assume they started developing GTA VI very early 2014 (since I don't think R* would take christmas away from their devs, but what do I know) This means that the game has been in development for 8 years. ![]() Rockstar has roughly ~5,000 developers in different studios (give or take). GTA IV Announced 2007, dropped 2008 (1 year, 1 month after first trailer) GTA V Announced in 2011, dropped 2013 (1 year 10 months after first trailer) RDR 2 announced in 2016, set to be dropped on 2017, but then delayed. Looking back to previous rockstar releases, trailer-to-release times and so on we can decipher when the next game will be out and possibly when it'll be announced.Īnyways, R* has tendencies to drop trailers 1-2 years before release: ![]()
