GTA 6: What we know so far

The anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) is palpable, with fans eagerly awaiting the next installment of Rockstar Games' iconic open-world franchise. While Rockstar has been tight-lipped about many details, a mix of official announcements, leaks, and insider information has given us a glimpse into what we can expect. Here's everything we know so far about GTA 6.

Setting and Locations

We're heading back to Vice City

One of the most exciting pieces of information is the return to Vice City, the fictional city based on Miami, which was last seen in GTA: Vice City. This nostalgic throwback promises to bring a vibrant, neon-lit landscape filled with palm trees, beaches, and a bustling city life reminiscent of the 1980s but updated for modern times.

Multiple Cities and Regions

Rumors suggest that GTA 6 will feature multiple cities and regions, including a potential trip to locations inspired by South America. This could offer a diverse range of environments, from urban jungles to lush rainforests, providing a vast and varied playground for players.

Characters and Storyline

Dual Protagonists

GTA 6 will have a playable female protagonist - confirming previous reports, it seems she will be Latina and indeed "one of a pair of leading characters in a story influenced by the bank robbers Bonnie and Clyde," as she's shown with a male lover and partner in crime. A playable female protagonist is a first for the Grand Theft Auto series. It seems she'll be accompanied by a male partner, too

Evolving World

Rockstar is known for its attention to detail and immersive storytelling. GTA 6 is expected to feature an evolving world where the environment and storyline change over time. This dynamic world might include real-time events, weather changes, and perhaps even economic fluctuations that affect gameplay.

Gameplay Mechanics

Enhanced AI and NPCs

Rockstar aims to push the boundaries of AI with GTA 6. Expect smarter NPCs that react more realistically to the player's actions, creating a more immersive and believable world. The improved AI will enhance both the everyday interactions and the more intense moments, such as police chases and gang confrontations.

Advanced Graphics and Physics

With the leap to next-gen consoles and high-end PCs, GTA 6 is set to deliver stunning graphics and more realistic physics. From lifelike character animations to detailed environments and realistic vehicle handling, the game is expected to be a visual and sensory feast.

Release Date

As of now, Rockstar has not officially announced a release date for GTA 6. However, industry insiders speculate that the game could launch sometime towards the last quarter of 2025. Rockstar's history of taking their time to polish their games means we can expect a high-quality release, even if it means waiting a bit longer.

We know GTA 6 will be available on Xbox Series X / S and PlayStation 5 when it's released in 2025.

When, and whether, the game will be launched on PC is still a mystery though. Traditionally, each installment of the series has been available on PC, so there's a good chance Rockstar will provide this important information at a later date.
