What did I just read? It can’t be? It can be and we may see a new GTA is one in the next five years. There’s even a chance for GTA 6 to come out next year.
Free-To-Play And Next-Gen Console Exclusive GTA 6?
There are many doubts and hopes around the release of GTA 6, like – it’s going to be only a PS5 exclusive and that the new GTA won’t be available for current consoles.
But with those doubts, there are also hopes, for example, that The New GTA will be free-to-play, considering that free-to-play games have been trending lately. Though, it’s unlikely to happen because firstly, GTA as a game is a little bit different from free-to-play games like Fortnite and other F2P games and secondly it’s all doubts, speculations, and hopes, so it’s better to not think about that too much.
Google Theft Auto 6
However, earlier this week, we had the chance to find out that Rockstar Games is partnering with the Google Stadia streaming platform — On the list of companies collaborating with Google on their new project, Rockstar Games’ name was found.
For us and Google those are great news, since Rockstar Games has some grande things they can add to the service, and yes it could be GTA 6…or maybe Rockstar Table Tennis 2?
But again…there’s a little bit of doubt because Rockstar Games was one of the majority of the collaborators that hadn’t listed any specific ongoing game projects coming to Stadia. And that means – anything can be expected from Rockstar Games, including Grand Theft Auto 6 and even the forgotten Bully 2.
Rockstar Wants To Speed Up The Process
Recalling what we mentioned about GTA 6 being available to next-generation consoles isn’t an easy job and some extra workforce is needed to do the job more efficiently and that could be the reason why Rockstar Games are expanding their Developer team.
Recently it came to light that Game Development Studios Starbreeze is troubling financially and to not go down completely, Starbreeze Studios started selling off assets to other companies, and guess what, Rockstar Games used the situation and bought 91.82 percent share of Starbreeze Studios by purchasing an Indian game art studio called Dhruva Interactive for $7.9 million.
And what’s even spicier is that the Indian Dhruva Interactive has an above-average experience with the OPEN WORLD GENRE and do you know what type of game Grand Theft Auto?
Dhruva Interactive previously has worked on games like Sea Of Thieves, Forza’s games, and more. Also, Starbreeze Studios worked on the Payday Games and other well-known games, so those guys aren’t nonamers and know how to do their job.
There’s no reason to be skeptical about the Dhruva Boys – that’s for sure because giants like Sony, Capcom, Bethesda, Ubisoft, and EA have been their clients, so buying this studio really should be a win for Rockstar Games and surely will speed up the process of the new GTA 6 development.
Yet, we don’t know what specifically Dhruva Interactive will work on.
It could be making the new world of GTA 6 or maybe something else.
Some Things We Could Expect From GTA 6
Obviously, like always when long-waited games reach the time when they could or should be announced – a lot of major leaks start showing up and with the situation of GTA 6, it’s no different.
One of the details previous leaks have exposed – is that GTA 6 is already in the process of making and developing, leaks also revealed its model will be a little bit different from GTA V or Red Dead 2.
“There are big plans online and with major content like newer towns,” – noted a leaker via PasteBin a few weeks back.
“Rockstar Games are working closely with Sony and Microsoft on cloud gaming which will help them enable online to be a continuous process.”
I don’t know about you, but for me, those leaks sound exciting, especially about the newer towns.
Also, the collaboration with Sony makes the speculation about exclusivity for PS5 possible.
The Future Is Bright
With all these crazy news and leaks reaching your brains, I can bet you are starting to feel quite excited, but there’s still a waiting process ahead for us and during this time, even more, leaks will start to show, up so we have to keep an eye on that.
To conclude, GTA 6 could be coming out anytime starting from next year, so we better must show some excitement.
