Outside of the first trailer, the game’s locale, and the plot, there isn’t much information about Grand Theft Auto 6. Still, one former Rockstar Games developer dropped some teases that should hopefully keep fans excited about the next game in the iconic video game franchise.
Spotted on Comicbook.com via the GTA VI O’clock podcast, developer Ben Hinchliffe — who left Rockstar Games in 2021, but not before he did some work on the highly anticipated video game will continue a streak of greatness and push the envelope like previous Rockstar Games like Red Dead Redemption II and GTA V when they first launched.
Red Dead Redemption II was a technical masterpiece, leaping graphically and technically from the first game. It proved Rockstar Studios is second to none when making sandbox games.
Roughly 6-years later, Red Dead Redemption II is still at the pinnacle of greatness in its genre, and based on what Hinchliffe said during the interview, only GTA 6 would be the game to blow it away.
Per Comicbook.com:
“You only have to look at how every game Rockstar has done has evolved in some way,” said Hinchcliffe while speaking to GTA VI O’clock. “And you could argue that manta before… that every element of the game moves forward in terms of feeling more realistic and people acting and behaving more realistic as every game is iterated through each cycle.”
Hinchliffe continued: “It will blow people away. It will sell an absolute ton as it always does, right? People will be taking about it for ages just like with GTA 5. And I’m really excited for people to get their hands on it and get in and play it, just because I think they [Rockstar] has raised the bar again just like they always do.”
Well damn.
There is word on the video game streets that a second trailer is on the horizon as the game slowly and secretly approaches its 2025 release date.
We will keep our eyes and ears open for more GTA 6 news.
