Believe it or not, it’s been over a decade since the last GTA game. While plenty of people still spend hundreds of hours GTA Online, everyone was (not very) patiently waiting for Rockstar to finally confirm that it was working on a modern entry. Despite many leaks and rumors, the team maintained good form until the end of 2023. Now that the game has finally been confirmed, we have a lot more solid ground to discuss when it comes to what Grand Theft Auto 6 will offer. This is going to be the biggest game of this generation and definitely the most anticipated upcoming game, so let’s hook up the car and raid to get all the information about GTA6.
GTA 6 release date window
GTA6 According to reports, the premiere is scheduled for autumn 2025. Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, parent company of Rockstar Games, confirmed the launch window in a May 2024 earnings call.
“Our forecasts reflect the narrowing of Rockstar Games’ previously established calendar 2025 window to the fall of calendar 2025 for Grand Theft Auto VI. We are confident that Rockstar Games will deliver unparalleled entertainment, and our expectations for the title’s commercial impact continue to grow,” Zelnick explained in press release prospects for fiscal year 2025 were discussed.
While interview for CNBC in November 2024, Zelnick once again commented on the release window GTA6, stating, “Well, there are slippages in the industry and we are not immune to it. However, we have narrowed down the date because we are very confident about it.” So, while there’s always the risk of issues causing a delay, everything appears to be on track for the game to meet its Fall 2025 deadline.
GTA 6 trailer
The GTA6 the trailer was scheduled to be released on December 5, 2023, but was removed a day earlier after a leaked version found its way online. Either way, we now have our first look at the world and characters.
Heroes GTA6 will be a pair, not a single character or trio as in previous games. The first is Lucia, who appears to have a criminal past considering she appears in a prison uniform in the trailer. The second main character is a male character for whom we don’t have a name yet, but he is certainly her partner in crime – and, at first glance, in romance.
Perhaps the most essential part of each GTA game this setting, and for GTA6Rockstar takes us back to Vice City. Of course, this time we will see it in the current world, and not in the tardy 1980s as before. The trailer shows a variety of environments, from beaches and bustling city streets to suburbs and swamps.
GTA 6 platforms
GTA6 it has only been officially confirmed that it will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S at launch. While we can safely say that this game won’t be coming to last-gen consoles or the Switch, its absence on PC seems like an odd omission. GTA5 It took two years to come to PC, but Red Dead Redemption 2 it didn’t come out until about two weeks later, so it’s possible that the PC release will be a little later, but it would still be a massive disappointment for this player base. This leaves Nintendo’s next console up in the air as well.
GTA 6 gameplay
The trailer didn’t show any real gameplay GTA6 and instead everything was cinematic. Based on this, however, we can make a lot of assumptions about what the game will look like.
So, to get this out of the way, you can rest basic knowing this GTA6 will feature plenty of shooting, driving, and criminal activities. The trailer showed heists, high-speed chases and lots of partying. Beyond that, however, we mostly have to speculate or rely on very venerable leaks. We think that GTA6 will continue the trend of allowing players to switch between first and third person perspectives. This has been added GTA5 and included at launch Red Dead Redemption 2.
If the trailer is any indication, the number of characters and action on screen at any given time means the world will be denser than ever. Each NPC looks unique and feels very “alive” when interacting with the world. In addition to shooting and running over them, we hope to see many more ways to interact with regular NPCs.
In such a enormous world, you can expect plenty of side activities, mini-games, and other fun activities to discover and waste hours on. Each title has upped the ante in terms of extras, but we don’t think so GTA6 missing here.
Will GTA 6 have GTA Online?
Probably the most observable change that has occurred GTA V was implementation GTA Online. This mode has become a staple of the game, providing millions of players (and dollars) for shared experiences. The base game is excellent, but GTA Online is what has preserved GTA V relevant almost ten years after its premiere.
The point is that we will almost certainly get some sort of multiplayer functionality GTA6. There’s no word on whether this will mean the entire game will be online-only or if there will be a dedicated multiplayer mode like the previous installment, but we can almost guarantee it will have an online mode.
Considering how successful it was GTA Online happened, it is unlikely that Rockstar will abandon the multiplayer feature in the next installment.
Strangely enough, GTA 6 version GTA Online apparently it won’t cover dedicated servers. This happens through an insider Thesis that he said: “Take-Two rejected the dedicated server proposal a few years ago. They thought it was too expensive for them.”
The real question is whether this is anything modern GTA Online will be available at launch or will be released gradually. The first version was released almost a month later GTA5, AND Red DeadOnline it took even longer – almost seven months. We don’t expect it to last that long GTA6but Rockstar may want to give players a few weeks to play the main game before tempting them with an online mode. A return to the headlines would be like a second premiere.
When will GTA 6 be available for pre-order?
As expected, GTA6 Pre-orders are not yet available. Since the game won’t be released until 2025 at the earliest, we don’t expect to receive any pre-order information until that date is set later that year. Of course, it could be even further away if these delays turn out to be real. In any case, we will keep you informed about the pre-order GTA6 as soon as it is available.
