The report then speculates, “Studios are able to make interim claims for VGTR before a game is completed, and the huge claims being put in by Rockstar are likely related to the production costs of GTA VI. TaxWatchUK reports that Edinburgh-based Rockstar North latest published accounts reveal a huge increase in claims for video games tax relief. But I did read your tweet )” and “While I read every message from you, please know that because of contract stipulations sometimes I’m unable to comment on certain projects,” – sounds promising.Īnother GTA 6 rumour comes from Rockstar’s tax returns of all things. Consejo has been addressing, and not addressing, the rumours on Twitter, simply stoking the fire with replies like “I can neither confirm nor deny this. However, that’s not stopping fans from getting excited at a potential remake of the iconic Vice City.īefore that, the last GTA 6 rumour comes from the online CV for actor Jorge Consejo, who lists GTA 6 as a title where he plays a character listed as ‘The Mexican’ from 2018. Of course, this could all be rubbish and the fake could have been planned to match the older map. The new map shows a central American-inspired island in early stages of development, but looks roughly the same shape as the older leak. A supposedly leaked screenshot of the GTA 6 map made its way onto GTA forums and Reddit, but its apparent validity comes from the fact that it matches a similar leak from 2018. This GTA 6 rumour is from all the way back in 2018, and is a bit out there, so bear with us on this one. Apparently, this is because a modern setting is more easily expanded upon in GTA Online – and on that note, the new online mode may take place on an ‘evolving map’ that changes on every release. This theory also works with a few other rumours mentioned in Henderson’s July 2021 video, in which he discusses the theory that GTA 6 is set in modern-day Vice City, and not the ‘80s as some suspected. Although there’s still no timeline on GTA 6, it means the next GTA might be slightly smaller when it does release. To mitigate crunch time is another reason the next GTA could be shorter, as Kotaku says in its report, “One plan that management has laid out for the next game, a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, is to start out with a moderately sized release (which, by Rockstar’s standards, would still be a large game) that is then expanded with regular updates over time, which may help mitigate stress and crunch.” Rockstar employees are speaking out about the positive changes the company is making after it was scrutinised following the crunch time over Red Dead Redemption 2. It could also mean that such “games may be a bit shorter” while still being robustly supported post-launch. In an interview with, Take-Two Interactive CEO, Strauss Zelnick, suggested that better development tools and bigger teams could shorten these gaps. Nowadays we tend to wait the best part of a decade between new games like GTA and Borderlands, but that might not necessarily be the case going forward. A video posted by Battlefield and Call of Duty leaker Tom Henderson reports that the game has supposedly been pushed back from 2023, as Rockstar has reportedly taken steps to improve workplace conditions and avoid crunch. Rumours suggest GTA 6 has been pushed back to 2024 or 2025. Safe to say, it’s been a little longer than that. When is GTA 6 coming out? If the series’ typical development timeline of about four to five years between entries is anything to go by, we should have got GTA 6 in 2018. Below you’ll find everything we know about GTA 6: Our insatiable appetite for biting satire and a good carjacking knows no bounds. We’ve rounded up all the latest GTA 6 rumours in one place with our suggestions for what we’d like to see, no matter what form the new Grand Theft Auto ends up taking. While Grand Theft Auto 6 hasn’t been announced yet we’re very much hoping for some GTA 6 news soon. So, naturally, we’re thinking hard about what’s coming next: GTA 6. This is largely thanks to Rockstar’s excellent and consistent updates to GTA Online.

The game’s sales numbers are off the charts, too, and player numbers remain impressive years on from release. No wonder we’re so desperate for a GTA 6 release date. The previous Grand Theft Auto game was almost inconceivably massive and entertaining.

As you know, however, we got Red Dead Redemption, instead. When is the GTA 6 release date? It’s hard to say, as Rockstar usually releases a new entry into the franchise every four to five years, which means we should have had one three years ago.
