It’s clear that GTA 6 is one of the most anticipated games of the moment, and it’s also one of the ones that has spawned the most rumors and fake leaks. We’ve been seeing information about this title for a few years now, and I think so good time to do some tidying up and separate those that have been proven false from those that have official merit, as well as review some interesting rumors that are still highly credible.

All this will give us a solid foundation everything we really know about GTA 6, what could eventually come true and what we can expect from this game in general. Keep in mind that even those things that have official confirmation value may eventually change partially or even completely, since the said game is still in development, has an unconfirmed release date, and therefore could end up receiving important changes.

GTA 6 is the most important game that Rockstar has on its schedule right now, so we can be sure They will take care of the development as much as possible. Therefore, there could also be delays that will ultimately delay its launch even further than expected and beyond what the most reliable rumors we’ve seen so far have suggested. Without further ado, let’s dive straight into the truths, the lies, and the “possibles” surrounding GTA 6.

Five truths about GTA 6

1.-GTA 6 has been in development for several years

That’s something that was confirmed by Take-Two itself, the publisher of the Rockstar franchise, on several occasions over the past few years. In this sense, Rockstar itself has confirmed that the development of the game is going slowly and that they do not plan to speed it up if it means sacrificing its final quality.

We don’t know how long GTA 6 has been in development, but it’s most likely that it went from the initial concept stage to the deep creation stage. between 2017 and 2018.

2.-It will be a more “politically correct” GTA

It started as a rumor that focused on a commitment to both gender and racial inclusion, and was finally confirmed by a leak of the game that happened about a year ago. In it we could see that GTA 6 had female co-leaderand that it will be of the Latin American race.

That “politically correct” It also extends to using certain groups and making certain mocks and parodies of them. The idea will be similar to what we saw in GTA V Next Gen, where certain retailers and marginalized groups were eliminated, and where transgender characters also disappeared.

3.-Rockstar wants GTA 6 to be “perfect”

And it is quite normal for the studio to strive for perfection. Just a few months ago, Take-Two talked about this topic. Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two, he confirmed in an interviewand also noted that they are working to offer something truly innovative that raises the bar and offers an experience like no one has seen before.

The idea of ​​perfection can vary greatly from person to person, that’s clear, but ultimately it’s also clear that there is a minimum common ground that must define that idea of ​​perfection. To fulfill it, GTA 6 must reach the market well polished and optimized.

4.-We have already seen the actual gameplay of GTA 6 and know its technical side

This was thanks to the huge leak that happened last year. In it, we could see many details about the plot of this new work, its setting, its protagonists, and also get to know it better from a technical point of view. Generally speaking The impressions that GTA 6 gave in this leak were not goodbut we must remember that we are working according to Rockstar himselfearly stage games.

We can’t judge a triple game of this caliber by a leak like this, so now all we can do is wait for Rockstar to officially announce it and actually show it off. what they were able to achieve on a technical level.

5.-His development is on the right track

Confirmed by Take-Two, also during an interview given by Strauss Zelnick, its CEO, who said that the game is also lives in a very active phase of development and that it is very advanced. This gave rise to some rumors that ultimately did not come true, such as a hypothetical presentation of the game much earlier than expected.

May GTA 6 be found in a very advanced stage of development and active is normal for the dates we’re in and doesn’t necessarily mean they’re about to launch, so we have to be careful with this type of information.

Five lies about GTA 6

1.-GTA 6 as a PS5 exclusive

It was a rumor that grew out of other rumors and alleged leaks from a few years ago, such as the appearance of references to GTA 6 for PS5 in the pro profile of a former Rockstar employee. What started out as a rumor talking about an outright exclusivity ended up turning into a supposed temporary exclusivity, but It’s completely fake.

For Rockstar, launching GTA 6 as an exclusive on Sony’s console would be like shooting yourself in the foot for all it would mean in terms of lost income. This game is coming to Microsoft consoles as well as PC.

2.-Its launch was supposed to take place at the end of 2023

This was a rumor that gained momentum in recent months, but was finally practically denied as the latest dates for the game’s supposed announcement were not fulfilled, as discussed below. In this sense, it is important to remember that there was actually no official data to give strength to the idea of ​​a possible launch of the game in 2023.

We still don’t have an official release date for GTA 6, but from what we’ve seen in recent comments from Rockstar, Take-Two, and their own revenue projections, the title is most likely it goes to 2024 or 2025.

3.-The selling price of the game will be 150 euros

It is true that the prices of games have increased significantly over the years, but this information did not make sense. GTA 6 is a highly anticipated game and will most likely offer many hours of fun, but even then, putting a price tag of 150 euros would be really crazy. it would move away from the average user.

Few players would be willing to pay 150 euros for a game and that would of course eventually affect their revenue, which of course would be very negative for Rockstar.

4.-Her announcement was supposed to take place on October 26, 2023

This rumor is related to the other one we hinted at. relatively recently it was said that Rockstar was going to show off GTA 6 on October 26th, a rumor that apparently didn’t come true, only kill more rumours who said that the title will hit the market before the end of this year.

Be patient, At best, we will go to 2024and according to some information, GTA 6 may be delayed until 2025.

5.-Rockstar confirmed that GTA 6 will not be released on PS4 and Xbox One

This has been a rumor that has moved heavily in recent months, but The truth is that it has not been confirmedand both the GTA 6 leak we saw at the time and some more recent rumors suggest that the title could eventually come to market with a cross-platform approach similar to what we saw with GTA V.

Note that the latter is also unconfirmed at this time All options are openThis means that a new Rockstar product can arrive as a current-gen exclusive, but the opposite can also happen.

Five very likely rumors

1.-GTA 6 could arrive in 2024 to 2025

This is something that has no official confirmation but comes from many reliable sources. Microsoft itself has hinted at a 2024 launch, and Take-Two has indicated a possible launch GTA 6 in 2024 to 2025. That strip seems the most likely of any we’ve seen so far, though we still don’t have an official date.

Keep in mind that if Rockstar really wants to release GTA 6 as an intergenerational transition title You won’t be able to rest on your laurels for long, as both the PS4 and Xbox One have already entered the end of their life cycle.

2.-It will use RAGE 9 graphics engine

It was one of the most interesting pieces of information we saw recently in this article where we told you that Rockstar is building GTA 6 on a significantly improved version of the GTA V graphics engineknown as RAGE 9. It could become one of the most advanced graphics engines today.

This new graphics engine will make it possible achieve an important generational leapalthough at the same time it should be flexible enough enough to run on previous generation consoles if Rockstar wants to go for this cross-gen launch like I told you before.

3.-Its price could be 80 euros

That price would certainly make sense given how the current landscape looks. Many type A game developers They increased the price of their games up to 70 or 80 euros, and that’s what Take-Two could do with the new Rockstar product.

It is true that selling a game for 80 euros represents a significant increase, but remains within the current general standard and in the end it turns out to be “sensible” in that sense. It would also offer a more balanced value in relation to game content and quality.

4.-GTA 6 got a deep review after the last leak

This is a rumor that makes a lot of sense precisely because of the general rejection the game received after that massive leak that happened a year ago. Evil tongues say that GTA 6 actually is It was in a more advanced state than Rockstar wanted to admit.and that in consequence he had no choice but to proceed with important changes and modifications.

These modifications would have a positive impact on the game, that is not debatable, but at the same time they could they delayed its launch.

5.-It will have a launch in two phases, like GTA V

We must keep in mind that this rumor is likely, but It depends on the launch of GTA 6 as a cross-generational title.. If that happens, Take-Two may launch the PS4 and Xbox One version first, which will have a much more modest and simpler technical design than the PS5, Xbox Series S-Series X and PC versions.

This “next generation” version would arrive later, as happened with GTA V at the time very significant graphical and technical improvements and the PC build may offer exclusive settings and configurations.
