The “Grand Theft Auto” franchise has been a mainstay in the video game industry for decades and it’s guaranteed that it will stick around for quite some time. However, this doesn’t take away the sting of having to wait for any news regarding “GTA 6” that feels like it will never come. As things stand, it is being assumed that the next game in the franchise will be released for the PS5 and Xbox Two in 2022 or so.
As ExpertReviews points out, many analysts are predicting that “GTA 6” will be coming out in the next three years or so. However, there is a chance that it will be announced several years prior to that. There might even be a trailer released this year, which should provide reprieve from the many fake ones that exist.
The timeline makes sense since even if the game is announced right now, there is every chance that it will take several more years to work out the bugs from the system. With the industry becoming increasingly complex and demanding, it makes sense that Rockstar would want to take its time developing “GTA 6.”
This is also why the idea being floated around that the game might launch after the PS5 and the Xbox Two are out does not sound that ridiculous. Next generation consoles are bound to be more powerful than their current counterparts and this extra muscle might be necessary to run “GTA 6” properly.
On that note, another reason why the game might not come out until after 2020 is Dan Houser’s recent comments regarding Donald Trump. As the co-founder of Rockstar, Houser recently said that he would rather not see “GTA 6” launch during the era of the current POTUS.
“It’s really unclear what we would even do with it (GTA), let alone how upset people would get with whatever we did,” he said in a recent interview.
“Intense liberal progression and intense conservatism are both very militant...and it’s hard to satirise for those reasons. Some of the stuff you see is straightforwardly beyond satire”, he added. “It would be out of date within two minutes, everything is changing so fast.”
