The news was revealed by the franchise’s studio, Rockstar, on Wednesday (8), to the delight of fans eager for any news about the game.
This announcement comes one month after the tenth anniversary of the launch of “GTA 5”, the last game in the series.
A decade later, the online multiplayer mode, GTA Online, still appears among the most played titles today. Since its launch, the game has grossed an average of $500 million annually, according to data from PC Gamer.
In December, Rockstar celebrates its 25th anniversary. The studio is responsible for incredibly successful games such as “Red Dead Redemption 2,” “Max Payne 3,” “Midnight Club” and others.
In fact, the technologies of these games are used in “GTA V”: the car control system came from “Midnight Club 3” and the aiming system from “Max Payne 3”.
But more than 20 years ago, with the release of “GTA 3” for the PlayStation 2 in 2001, the series established itself as one of the most beloved games, and the following games, “GTA: Vice City”, “GTA”: San Andreas” (perhaps the most popular Anyone who owns a PS2) and “GTA 4” has been a critical and sales success.
The more than ten-year delay of the new “GTA” is also due to the success of “GTA Online”: the studio focused on constant updates so that the game remained at the top of sales.

What the studio officially said about the game
The company said in a statement: “We are pleased to confirm that development of the next part of the Grand Theft Auto series is well underway.”

According to “Variety” and the specialized site PC Gamer, over the weekend, a user posted a 3-GB file on a forum dedicated to the game, which included 90 video clips with pictures from “GTA 6.”
Where the events of “GTA 6” will take place.
In the “GTA” series, we play in several fictional locations inspired by the real world: Liberty City from “GTA 3” and “GTA 4”; Vice City from “GTA: Vice City”; And Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas, which make up the famous city of San Andreas from “GTA: San Andreas”. In “GTA V” we play in a version of San Andreas with a focus on the city of Los Santos.
Information contained in the “GTA 6” leak indicates that the new game city may once again be Vice City, a version inspired by the city of Miami in the United States.
The technologies and visual improvements that the new game will feature have not been announced. However, Take-Two has filed a patent for character animation technology that promises “highly realistic, dynamic animation” for characters, which will “move and interact realistically with their environments.”
It is also expected that the systems used in “Red Dead Redemption 2”, such as changing weather and environments, will appear in an improved version in “GTA 6”.
