"GTA Online" continues to be extremely successful, but more and more gamers are eagerly waiting for "GTA 6".
It's already boiling hot in the rumor mill.
Although "GTA 6" * has still not been officially announced, due to various leaks, the gigantic success of its predecessor "GTA 5" and a track very clearly interspersed by Studio Rockstar Games itself, it is considered certain that the game will be
in the coming years will appear
.
However, when it comes to the content of the game, fans and gamers know depressingly little - most of it is based on leaks and rumors.
If you compare these and check the trustworthiness of the respective source, you get some information that at least halfway could reveal something about "GTA 6".
What these are and what the status of other important topics related to the blockbuster game looks like is presented below.

GTA 6: We already know that about the successor to GTA 5
As mentioned at the beginning, we know
very little
about "GTA 6"
.
The only information that is certain is that the game is due to appear at some point.
Not only was the predecessor such a great financial success for the Rockstar Games studio that a successor is more or less a matter of course, Rockstar also hid a
hint about the game
in a teaser for “GTA Online”
: The video shows coordinates that if checked via Google Maps, show a street whose shape resembles a Roman six.
Several rumors also suggest that "GTA 6", like "GTA 5",
will offer several playable characters
- and one of them is said to be a woman, for the first time in the long history of the video game series.
The final piece of information about GTA 6 that is considered quasi-safe is also the most depressing:
it will be a long time before the game is released
.

GTA 6: The rumors and leaks about the release and setting
According to the well-known video game journalist Jason Schreier, "GTA 6" is in the
early stages of development
.
Although it is the next big game from Rockstar Games, the release is still years in the future, according to Schreier.
This forecast is supported by the credible rock star experts "Tez2" and "Yan2295", writes
GameStar
.
In the case of a more specific release period, however, the many experts and leakers have different views; the forecasts are for the end of 2023 at the earliest and 2025 at the latest.
When it comes to the setting, fans and experts are largely in the dark.
Two theories
currently dominate
the debate:
Settting theory 1
: "GTA 6" takes place in Vice City in the 1980s.
This is indicated by some rather flimsy leaks, which have been declared false by industry insider Tom Henderson, among others.
This is supported by the fact that publisher Take-Two uses the web domains “gtavi.com” and
"Gtavicecityonline.com" registered.
But that could also have happened because of the next expansion for "GTA Online", which could make a trip to Vice City.
Settting theory 2
: The majority of industry insiders, however, suspect a modern setting.
This is due, among other things, to the success of “GTA Online” - a modern setting would enable a larger and more unusual “adventure playground” feeling through more varied options.
Henderson also claimed that in "GTA 6" you would be paid for various missions in the crypto currency Bitcoin (in the game, of course), which also speaks for a modern setting.

GTA 6: What will the game offer in terms of play?
As
GameStar
reports, publisher Take-Two has filed a patent that would ultimately enable smarter and more independent NPCs (non-player characters).
A
livelier and more realistic population in "GTA 6"
could be expected.
The cities and the surrounding area should also change during the game and react to the actions of the player.
Insider Henderson reinforced this theory and states that the game world should continue to develop and change, similar to "Call of Duty: Warzone",
new areas would be added with updates and expansions
and familiar
areas would be
redesigned.

GTA 6: when will the game be announced?
For a long time there has been speculation about when and above all how "GTA 6" will finally be announced.
For example, many rumors had predicted in early 2021 that the first
trailer
would be shown
at the Super Bowl
- but that was not the case, although the Super Bowl would generally be a good candidate due to its gigantic number of viewers.
For 2022, the NFL final is definitely an option again.
Another assumption:
“GTA 6” is to be announced at a large in-game event in “GTA Online”
- that would definitely make the number of players soar.
It would also fit in with the current trend in the gaming world, as other games have already successfully made such in-game announcements - “Fortnite” is a prime example of this.
GTA 6: what platforms will it appear on?
Since "GTA 6" is still a few years in the future, it is very likely that it will no longer appear like current titles for Last Gen and Next Gen but only for PlayStation 5
and Xbox Series X / S and PC.
As with other Rockstar titles, it can be assumed that the PC version will only get a port some time after it was first published.
And finally: Of course, "GTA 6" on one is
great Multiplayer
-
Part
set - this was "GTA Online", the multiplayer mode of "GTA 5" simply too successful. But what will that look like? Will the existing online mode be transferred to "GTA 6"? Will there be an
entirely new online mode
to replace the old one? Or will two online modes coexist in the future? According to
GameStar
,
Take-TWO CEO Strauss Zelnick said in 2020
that GTA 6 and GTA Online could easily
coexist
. How exactly that will look like remains, like so many things in "GTA 6", initially unclear. (fh) *
