undoubtedly, GTA VI is one of the most anticipated games of recent years. And it seems unbelievable, but nine years have passed since its predecessor GTA V was released. A much longer period than what happened between the previous installments of the saga, which is partly due to the larger size of GTA V (and hopefully GTA VI), but it still makes us fans of the saga count the days. saga.

We haven’t had any news relevant to this future release since February, but in just 24 hours information has been produced that suggests good, very good news in this regard. And it’s because, although there is still a long wait for GTA VI to arrive, it seems that Rockstar has decided to put on the turbo and if the leaks are confirmed, we would even have a planned date for its arrival on the market (if there is no delay, of course).

News about the acceleration of development is found in Gizchina, which tells us Rockstar has launched an aggressive hiring campaign, with up to 233 offers in Hitmaker, to which open trials would be added by other means. Among the job openings, the company is hiring professional animation assistants, technical game designers, 3D character artists, photogrammetry artists, and animation system programmers, among others, with offices in Toronto, Bangalore, New York, and London.

If this happened a few months ago, we could attribute it to the Red Dead Redemption and GTA IV remasters the company was working on. However, after the GTA Trilogy fiasco, we recently learned that both projects would be cancelled, to which we must add that Red Dead Redemption II online would also be delayed. In other words, all these extra resources would go exclusively to GTA IV.

And for a few hours it made more sense because alleged statements by an unidentified Rockstar employeewhich would state the following:

«Right now we are finalizing all designs, working on bugs and hiring marketing managers as September to October 2023 will be a busy few months for our marketing teams. In the past, we couldn’t provide release time estimates because they weren’t reliable enough, but today I can 100% confirm that October 29, 2023 will be GTA VI’s release date..»

If this date is confirmed, if Rockstar plans to release GTA VI on October 29 next yearit makes sense that in just over a year, it intends to beef up its human infrastructure, as there’s certainly still a lot of work to be done to complete the development, which we expect should leave us speechless.
