GTA 6: What is currently known about it? There are rumors, leaks, and some reliable information.
After six years of GTA 5 and despite the regular release of new content, many players are beginning to wonder about the continuation of the franchise. Probably a new work and no spin-off in the Vice City or San Andreas, many rumors have emerged lately.
From the story about the characters, the locations, and the release date, we offer you a summary of all the information we currently know about GTA 6, or rather, suspect, of course, all the following information is just the result of rumors and possible leaks and therefore must be considered retrospectively until Rockstar confirms it.
The story of Grand Theft Auto 6
Although some rumors have mentioned the 1970s and 1980s as the period for the GTA 6 adventure, there has been no confirmation yet from Rockstar Games on the subject. As for the main plot, nobody seems to have dared speculate yet, although there are occasional references to drug trafficking. This is probably the part of the next work that has been least affected by rumors.
The map of the new GTA
While a return to Vice City was mentioned several times, the presence of South American influence was also the focus of rumors about GTA 6, with the possibility of traveling between Vice City, the equivalent of the American city of Miami, and South America being discussed first. Some time ago, however, a Reddit user claimed he was on the map of the next Grand Theft Auto and therefore undertook to draw from memory the map he had seen before sharing it.
Life in GTA 6 would, therefore, be based on two large cities, San Fierro and Las Venturas, and at the same time offer many environments. However, many people have claimed that this information was wrong, so only time will tell whether this contribution is right or wrong.
The characters
While the first reference was to a female protagonist, more recent rumors point to two main characters, a man and a woman. It will probably be possible to change characters like GTA 5 when this happens.
Special attention will also be given to the NPCs to give the impression of a real-life outside the main story. A rumor supported by the many actions and interactions of the NPCs in GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, a trend that wouldn’t surprise if developed further in the next Grand Theft Auto.
The release date of GTA 6
The release date of GTA 6 is probably the most rumored. While some are planning an announcement in December 2019, others are considering an announcement in the fall of 2020. After the exchange on Instagram about the collaboration between Rockstar Games and the American rap group City Morgue, some expect an announcement or even a release of the new GTA in the summer of 2020. Everything seems to be in line with the next generation of consoles with the PS5 and Scarlett.
One thing is certain, Grand Theft Auto VI is about to be actively developed under the name “Project America”.
