Everything we know about GTA 6

All the early info and rumors on the most anticipated video game in the world 

Considering GTA 5 is the second most successful video game of all time, Rockstar is obviously going to release a sixth Grand Theft Auto. Here are all the early GTA 6 rumors and bits of educated guesswork currently doing the rounds...

THE NEXT GTA HAS BEEN IN DEVELOPMENT SINCE 2012

Development on the sixth GTA began even before Grand Theft Auto 5 was released. Production started in 2015, though six years on, Rockstar has yet to officially announce the latest entry of its peerlessly popular open world series.   

GTA 6 MAY STAR A FEMALE PROTAGONIST

According to Call of Duty leaker Tom Henderson, GTA 6 may feature both a male and female protagonist. Considering how well GTA 5's character-swapping worked, we're all for a return of multiple leads.

IT'S A NEXT-GEN EXCLUSIVE

GTA 6 will definitely come to PS5 and Xbox Series X, but we can't see it hitting PS4 or Xbox One. Seeing as the last-gen consoles can barely run GTA 5 at 30fps, there's surely no way they could run a next-gen Grand Theft Auto. 

Rockstar tends to announce GTAs two years before it releases them. GTA 4 was revealed May 2006 and launched April 2008, while GTA 5 was unveiled Oct 2011 and hit shelves Sep 2013. If GTA 6 is announced this year, we're probably looking at a 2023 release.

DON'T EXPECT GTA 6
TO BE OUT BEFORE 2023

COULD GTA 6 BE SET IN MULTIPLE COUNTRIES?

We've already seen the series play around with multiple states/cities/towns in a single game - see San Andreas or GTA 5's North Yankton prologue. Current rumors suggest GTA 6 is codenamed 'PROJECT AMERICAS', and will take place in both Vice City and a take on Rio de Janeiro. 

IT MAY HAVE A DRUG EMPIRE MECHANIC

An alleged GTA 6 leak from Reddit suggests the game has a drug empire-building system similar to the one in Vice City Stories. Think GTA Online's drug peddling missions, then dial it up to 10.
