Insider Tom Henderson, who previously leaked details regarding Call of Duty and Battlefield 2042, said in a new YouTube video that GTA 6 will only release in 2025 and take place in a modern version of Vice City, contrary to previous reports that the game will take place in the eighties. He also claims that Rockstar wants to ensure as much freedom as possible for its team when it comes to creating content for GTA Online.
Henderson also talked about the possibility of changing the GTA 6 map over time, similar to what happens with Fortnite at the end of each season. He also mentioned that GTA 6 will have many playable characters, something that was introduced in GTA 5.
The delay in the arrival of GTA 6, according to Henderson, is due to the fact that Rockstar placed more emphasis on the welfare of employees after several reports that they had to work in difficult conditions (crisis) during the development of Red Dead Redemption 2.
GTA 6 will likely be released for PS5, Xbox Series and PC only, and Rockstar is said to be hoping to sell more new consoles to maximize the game’s sales. Henderson said that Rockstar will take some time to officially announce GTA 6 because it wants to prevent the game from being delayed. Due to the overwhelming success of GTA 5, it can take more time to develop and announce the new game.
