We know that Rockstar has been working on GTA 6 for quite some time, although it is a project that is carried out with absolute secrecy, so unfortunately we do not have any solid details to share with you yet. However, thanks to a status update Rockstar themselves made on their official website, we were able to confirm this this project is getting complicatedso much so that they were forced to focus more of their resources on the development of the said game.

To realize this, you don’t need to read between the lines or stretch the interpretation, it follows directly from Rockstar’s latest statements. I gave you literal translation so you can see for yourself:

“Over the past few years, we’ve been steadily shifting more development resources towards the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, and we understand more than ever the need to exceed player expectations and make this next entry the best it can be. and as a result we make some changes to the way we support Red Dead Online.»

The text goes on to say that they plan to improve existing game modes instead of adding new modes, and that We shouldn’t expect major content updates either. in the short or medium term. They also take the opportunity to thank the community for their support. There is no doubt that they will reduce the resources allocated to Red Dead Redemption 2 Online to support the development of GTA 6, which honestly seems right to me, as this will ultimately be their next star game, and it is imperative that it lives up to the expectations it has generated (and there are not few of them).

What can we expect from GTA 6?

It’s a good question and the answer is not at all simple because, as we said, the rumors and leaks that have been coming out lately are not very reliable. Still, I think it exists five key points that will eventually come true almost certainly in GTA 6 and I will share them with you:

• GTA 6 will be an exclusive title for next generation consoles as well as for PC.
• You’ll take advantage of today’s most advanced technologies, including ray tracing, multiple scaling methods (NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS), and DirectStorage.
• Its launch will take place between 2024 and 2025.
• It will have a more ambitious and complete online mode than the one we saw in GTA V, it will be an essential part of keeping Rockstar’s income.
• It will take place in the present, it will not take us another decade, as happened for example with GTA Vice City, a title that, strangely enough, is still considered one of the best in the franchise. I personally like it the most, mainly because of the setting and the soundtrack.

It is too early to talk about the possible requirements of GTA 6, but we can be sure that they will be next generation titlesand that we will need a six-core and twelve-thread CPU, 16 GB of RAM and a GeForce RTX 2060 or Radeon RX 6600 to run it in optimal conditions.
