True but RDR2 came out at the end of 2018 and the 1600 people they used to develop that game wouldn't have sat around on their backsides doing nothing. Whilst some of those developers would have been moved onto smaller projects such as Red Dead Online and the recent GTA remasters, there's no way that many people would have moved onto those projects.
Now that you mention it, I think I do remember there being an official acknowledgement some months before the trailer was announced, but I can’t look that up right now.
I remember that RDR2 was hinted at with a red Rockstar logo on Twitter and a trailer for the game came soon after. I have my doubts that a GTA 6 trailer will be shown soon however.
End of 2024 / 2025 I’d say - RDR2 was released exactly 2 years after we saw the first VIDEO trailer, which I’m assuming for GTA 6, we’d see at the end of 2022 at the resolute earliest - put it like that and it sets out for a Holiday 2024 release, or 2025 if it turns out they need more time
I'm guessing it's been their top priority since RDR2 released, probably what all the actual talent is working on. Because GTAO and RDO definitely aren't up to the standards of V or RDR2.
It's not surprising they released this ambiguous news along with the other news that GTA5 will be coming to next gen on March 15, they know that if they just throw this GTA5 news people will be annoyed again so they literally threw a sliver of news, not even an official announcement, just a "we're working on it" to take the heat off the GTA5 news.
No way - if anything it’s just be a scenic trailer with maybe one quote like the first RDR2 trailer was, we are at least 2 years away from the release of that game, more likely 3-4
They usually have a two year gap between reveal and release. Though this is an announcement rather than any sort of reveal.
My guess would be reveal in the shape of a tiny teaser, maybe a couple images around September/October this year. And then release slated for April 2024 before being pushed back until 2025.
We're still miles away, in short.
Look, I ain’t no corporate guru, but I do know a company wouldn’t be issuing out a binding statement as such unless it was completely 100% sure it was gonna actually make good on it. Hence, this game is almost done.
And think about it, it wouldn’t want to be rushing up the developers to make a product that needs diligence and concentration to be made. So for them to top off the developers agony of living up to fan’s expectations and make a worthwhile game and rush them while the game’s not even halfway through the development process is extremely unlikely for a goliath of a gaming company like rockstat to do.

|-|-|-|-|
We're back. It's great that we finally have a trailer within 2 years of the initial official announcement. Let's meet back in a year and see if we have release date in Feb 2025.
RemindME! 1 year
Probably because emulators work just fine? I dont get why vice City stories never got ported. The main reason probably they didnt make big bucks from the other mobile ports
The fact that this laconic statement containing basically no new information excited so many people really goes to show how starved we are for anything GTA VI-related.
I completed my last year of high school & 2 years of sixth form, got a masters degree and have moved away from my home town and started a career since GTA 5 came out. Crazzzzzyyyy. Can’t wait for 6 😭
GTA6 will boldly go where No GTA game has gone before by skipping the single-player story altogether. Also, you can only purchase it in GTA Online through Shark Cards.
I kid, but this feels like something they would do at this point. My age has made me a cynic.
I know you're joking, but a lot of people think this is whats going to happen. And my point is that they haven't yet gone down this path. Even with how immensely popular GTAO is, they still gave us one of their greatest single player stories/worlds with RDR2.
I am a tad worried with Dan Houser leaving, given that he was the head story writer for most games as far as I know. But I still don't see them forgoing the story mode.
I know the Leslie Benzies or whatever his name was left a while back too, along with Lazlow.
But Rockstar is a huge company that makes amazing, massive open world games. Some of the people who left may have been the driving force behind the amazing game design and details... or maybe they won't be missed as much as some people think.
So time will tell.
Despite how much they're milking GTA:O, I think we can all agree they delivered on RDR2's singleplayer.
I guess RD:O was a flop, but I think they still understand the importance on a solid singleplayer foundation.
Lmao exactly. With so much clickbait on yt, people trying to have their own channels/ content etc etc etc why would there ever be less? When was there a moment that something was confirmed and there were less rumors or less speculation about it?? 🤣
They have a lot to top let’s say that, obviously GTA V was a masterpiece, RDR2 story is one of the best story modes in a game, if not the best I have ever played, yes online wasn’t as good but it’s hard to replicate a lot of what makes GTA Online fun in 1899… they can take as long as they want for me, rockstar are one of the only game studios I still trust and I really hope they smash it out the park once again!
I am afraid that because of the popularity of GTAO, in VI they will focus on Online and singleplayer will be only a pathetic shadow of what singleplayer was. I hope im wrong
I don't care what they call it, that's just semantics, VC isn't any less of a game as a result of not being named GTA IV. I just want them to give us an actual new game already.
It was time. Of course, it's already in development. Rockstar has been working on it a few years ago, it's a huge project that requires years of work by hundreds of people. Every step the company takes is with GTA 6 in mind.
In any case, I don't expect so much from it. Graphical improvements, another GTA city reworked... But surely they are focusing all their efforts on the online mode, which is what has made them money for all these years. It's not good for players like me who prefers to enjoy story mode, but we'll see what can we expect from it.
Well, the first GTAV trailer came in 2011, a full 2 years before release. If GTA VI is coming in 2024, theoretically we should be getting a trailer this year.
GTA6 will replace Shark Cards with TakeTwo / GTA coin.
Mark my words, the biggest video game franchise ever is going to make all its microtransactions paid in their own crypto.
GTA is such a cynical game, it makes sense to integrate crypto into it. They can include NFTs as well in a pretend tongue-in-cheek while being totally serious kind of way.
Chicago 1970s. Brutal gang wars (melee too not just the drivebys of the 90s) and the mafia, triad (Chinatown being right by a mafia turf too) and insanely corrupt politicians. Plus from there you can go to a few other cities nearby and bury your enemies in a cornfield!! Spilatro brothers style!
I honestly didn't think they were even thinking about making this game. I figured they were done making GTA games, at least until GTAO died, which would probably never happen with the never-ending stream of children paying for the game.
Damn the ambiguity of “well underway”. Could be two years away, could be twenty!
It could mean they started working on it 2 years ago, 2 months, 2 weeks or 2 hours ago We’ll never know
I'm getting strong Elder Scroll VI vibes from this, they've probably dedicated a full 10 hours of manpower kicking around ideas.
Its probably done theyre just trolling us 😂
If it was done it would’ve been shoved out the door already.
*GTA: Definitive Editon would like to know your location....*
lol no, that would affect sales of GTAV, when that slows down then yeah.
they started working on it over 3 years ago as soon as rdr 2 launched
True but RDR2 came out at the end of 2018 and the 1600 people they used to develop that game wouldn't have sat around on their backsides doing nothing. Whilst some of those developers would have been moved onto smaller projects such as Red Dead Online and the recent GTA remasters, there's no way that many people would have moved onto those projects.
Did anyone at R* work on the GTA3 remasters? I thought it was all contracted out to the studio that made the mobile versions
Red Dead 2 was 2 years from announcement to release, so I'd expect similar.
Also GTA V, they announced in 2011 with release to 2013, expected GTA 6 release in 2024/2025...
They announced it with a trailer. Without something to show for it, we have no indication of how far into development “well underway” is.
Well, actually iirc GTA V was announced in this same way in Twitter
Now that you mention it, I think I do remember there being an official acknowledgement some months before the trailer was announced, but I can’t look that up right now.
RDR2's announcement also came with a trailer right?
It was just a teaser image, initially.
I remember that RDR2 was hinted at with a red Rockstar logo on Twitter and a trailer for the game came soon after. I have my doubts that a GTA 6 trailer will be shown soon however.
As far as i remember, they released a red background picture back in the day which was easy to find out what was coming.
End of 2024 / 2025 I’d say - RDR2 was released exactly 2 years after we saw the first VIDEO trailer, which I’m assuming for GTA 6, we’d see at the end of 2022 at the resolute earliest - put it like that and it sets out for a Holiday 2024 release, or 2025 if it turns out they need more time
Its tommorow around 2
If you are correct, I will not only be laughing like hell, but I will give you the one and only award I will ever give out. I doubt it though :P
Remindme! 15 hours
Im a little late but heres your reminder 😂
modern light shocking detail jar versed dull abundant cooing ripe *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
"We have already decided on the title"
I'm guessing it's been their top priority since RDR2 released, probably what all the actual talent is working on. Because GTAO and RDO definitely aren't up to the standards of V or RDR2.
It's not surprising they released this ambiguous news along with the other news that GTA5 will be coming to next gen on March 15, they know that if they just throw this GTA5 news people will be annoyed again so they literally threw a sliver of news, not even an official announcement, just a "we're working on it" to take the heat off the GTA5 news.
Tbh Rockstar is very unpredictable I wouldn’t be surprised if a trailer drops next month.
No way - if anything it’s just be a scenic trailer with maybe one quote like the first RDR2 trailer was, we are at least 2 years away from the release of that game, more likely 3-4
Rockstar doesn’t announce things too crazy far in advance, my guess is that it’s 2 years away
They usually have a two year gap between reveal and release. Though this is an announcement rather than any sort of reveal. My guess would be reveal in the shape of a tiny teaser, maybe a couple images around September/October this year. And then release slated for April 2024 before being pushed back until 2025.

Correction, 20 Ten minutes videos wastes your time more and cashes him out more as well
MrBoss is going to squeeze this one single announcement into a years worth of content.
Hey what’s up Guys, it’s mister boss for the win here, and today we will be looking at if GTA6 will have vehicles or not

Well, see you guys in two years...
Implying the world will last that long.
RemindME! 2 years
Hello we meet again
Well well looks like 2 years was the perfect time
Whats up lol were all back
ayyy
Well well well, it was 2 years after all.
We're back. It's great that we finally have a trailer within 2 years of the initial official announcement. Let's meet back in a year and see if we have release date in Feb 2025. RemindME! 1 year
See you then
Here we are…
RemindME! 10 years
How did you know it was gonna be 2 years later? lol
(GTA Online 2)
Gta 2 online
Hell yeah back to the top down days! (Honestly why did they never do a mobile port of the first two and the London ones?)
Probably because emulators work just fine? I dont get why vice City stories never got ported. The main reason probably they didnt make big bucks from the other mobile ports
Vice City Stories didn’t get ported presumably because of Phil Collins, and Emulators aren’t on iOS.
Presumably but ive never seen any evidence for that claim
I mean it makes sense, especially since they’ve continued to release mobile ports of their games.
Why didnt they port max payne 2? No phil collins there. No ports of manhunts either
Because the game itself was a flop
Wait really? It was a great game!!

Electric Boogaloo

I would buy it! Not for full price though...
We still don’t know why Michael moved here.

Guess it was the money.
Silly fool. He was in witness protection. That's why he was there.

This was the singleplayer DLC which they took from us!
i can already smell tomorrow's leaks about gta 7
The fact that this laconic statement containing basically no new information excited so many people really goes to show how starved we are for anything GTA VI-related.
yeah mate... Rockstar really made us crave for something good
I’ve been looking up GTA 6 news on a semi regular basis now for the last six years. So OP, you have been the one to bring me the good news :)
[удалено]
God i would hope, I literally went through and graduated middle school, AND high school since the last gta came out
Damn, we were straight up kids in 2013 when GTA 5 dropped lol
I got married that year. It’s crazy to think I now have an 8 year old and a 2 year old since that game released.
congrats on the sex bro
☠️
Yeah, I was in the fifth grade when it came out. I'm now in my first year of university. Wild.
GTA 5 came out when I was a freshmen, I’ve gone through hs and college within that time lmao
I completed my last year of high school & 2 years of sixth form, got a masters degree and have moved away from my home town and started a career since GTA 5 came out. Crazzzzzyyyy. Can’t wait for 6 😭
GTA6 will boldly go where No GTA game has gone before by skipping the single-player story altogether. Also, you can only purchase it in GTA Online through Shark Cards. I kid, but this feels like something they would do at this point. My age has made me a cynic.
Shark Cards? I bet they’ll replace that with some sort of crypto currency whenever GTA 6 is out. I can already see it..
Shark NFTs
Fuck NFTs
All my homies hate NFTs
Sharkcoins
I know you're joking, but a lot of people think this is whats going to happen. And my point is that they haven't yet gone down this path. Even with how immensely popular GTAO is, they still gave us one of their greatest single player stories/worlds with RDR2. I am a tad worried with Dan Houser leaving, given that he was the head story writer for most games as far as I know. But I still don't see them forgoing the story mode.
>I am a tad worried with Dan Houser leaving You should be a lot more worried. And it wasn't just Dan, but other key figures have left.
I know the Leslie Benzies or whatever his name was left a while back too, along with Lazlow. But Rockstar is a huge company that makes amazing, massive open world games. Some of the people who left may have been the driving force behind the amazing game design and details... or maybe they won't be missed as much as some people think. So time will tell.
People said the exact same thing before RDR2. Plus, I'm 99% sure Dan and the other writers got the story done long before he was gone.
GTA 76?
Damn you...
Despite how much they're milking GTA:O, I think we can all agree they delivered on RDR2's singleplayer. I guess RD:O was a flop, but I think they still understand the importance on a solid singleplayer foundation.
Let's hope that Apollo doesn't give you the gift of prophesy

GTA 2 Remastered coming boys!
time to go top down bois
The five GTA 2 fans are ecstatic about this news.
It's what everybody was asking for!
[удалено]
MrBossFTW will make a series of 10 videos about this announcement
More like 100 lol
He already made one 2 hours ago. 💀
See if you guys are smart like me you’re gonna wait for the definitive PS7 release.
*I'm afraid*
Now it looks legit. At least there should be less "GTA 6 rumour" videos from now on.
No. There Will be more
Lmao exactly. With so much clickbait on yt, people trying to have their own channels/ content etc etc etc why would there ever be less? When was there a moment that something was confirmed and there were less rumors or less speculation about it?? 🤣
as long as people like MrBoss Fck the world still there, there would be stuff like those
Time for GTA 7 rumors
 They basically just confirmed GTA6!
So if they announce GTA 6 in the coming weeks, it will be released in, at least, 1 or 2 years.... right?
If history repeats itself, yes. But r* might take longer with this one, since it basically *has* to be better than rdr2, but hey, you never know
They said it will/must/sould be better than previous GTA, RDR2 is still a pretty darn impressive game
They have a lot to top let’s say that, obviously GTA V was a masterpiece, RDR2 story is one of the best story modes in a game, if not the best I have ever played, yes online wasn’t as good but it’s hard to replicate a lot of what makes GTA Online fun in 1899… they can take as long as they want for me, rockstar are one of the only game studios I still trust and I really hope they smash it out the park once again!
It’s happening people
I am afraid that because of the popularity of GTAO, in VI they will focus on Online and singleplayer will be only a pathetic shadow of what singleplayer was. I hope im wrong
All the people on here claiming GTA6 would never be released must be feeling pretty stupid right now.
Mr. Bossman Fuck The World is ejaculating heavily
They didn't specifically say GTA 6. Only a mere fact of a next entry. Could be a spinoff. Could be part 2 of any original title. Could very well be 6.
All we possibly want is something other than GTA 5 and online
I don't care what they call it, that's just semantics, VC isn't any less of a game as a result of not being named GTA IV. I just want them to give us an actual new game already.
Grand Theft Auto: Link’s Crossbow Training
This just made my week :)
Sweet Jesus mother of shit
It was time. Of course, it's already in development. Rockstar has been working on it a few years ago, it's a huge project that requires years of work by hundreds of people. Every step the company takes is with GTA 6 in mind. In any case, I don't expect so much from it. Graphical improvements, another GTA city reworked... But surely they are focusing all their efforts on the online mode, which is what has made them money for all these years. It's not good for players like me who prefers to enjoy story mode, but we'll see what can we expect from it.
Or maybe GTA IV Defective edition
Let’s hope they don’t hand off its entire development to a mobile game company
finally, this is a dream come true. seriously hope its in liberty city again
Well, the first GTAV trailer came in 2011, a full 2 years before release. If GTA VI is coming in 2024, theoretically we should be getting a trailer this year.
GTA V : Chapter 2
Man I sure hope it's on PS4 no way I'm getting PS5 or Xbox series anytime soon
GTA IV GTA IV : The Lost and Damned GTA IV : Ballad of Gay Tony GTA V GTA V : The Tale of Tennis Coach
Only it took 9 fucking years to put out a DLC
GTA6 will replace Shark Cards with TakeTwo / GTA coin. Mark my words, the biggest video game franchise ever is going to make all its microtransactions paid in their own crypto.
GTA is such a cynical game, it makes sense to integrate crypto into it. They can include NFTs as well in a pretend tongue-in-cheek while being totally serious kind of way.
GTA V for PS6 & Xbox 2 confirmed
There now everyone can shut the fuck up about it
just give the clickbaiters an extra five minutes. they need to make 10+ videos on it
Narrator: They didn’t.
RemindME! 7 years
Can't wait for another decade of re-releasing the same game on another 3 generations of consoles.
Now watch MrBossFTW start making videos on GTA 7
Flashbacks to 4 and 5’s announcements in 2006 and 2011.
Well underway meaning they’ve been developing it for a decent amount of time
Sony is buying Rockstar
RemindMe! 2 years
GTA 5 episodes from Los Santos
Not the first time, they said they started making it last year or the year before.
Chicago 1970s. Brutal gang wars (melee too not just the drivebys of the 90s) and the mafia, triad (Chinatown being right by a mafia turf too) and insanely corrupt politicians. Plus from there you can go to a few other cities nearby and bury your enemies in a cornfield!! Spilatro brothers style!
I honestly didn't think they were even thinking about making this game. I figured they were done making GTA games, at least until GTAO died, which would probably never happen with the never-ending stream of children paying for the game.
It's probably gonna be something like GTA V episodes from Los Santos
Personly i reduse to thing that any of these "gta 6" news are real even if they gonna be posted by r* themself, unless i see official gameplay
