When is rockstar releasing

Similarly, Dragon Age 4 , an equally far-off title that could release around the same time as GTA 6 , has reportedly opted to be an exclusively next-gen experience. Blame the long wait for GTA 6 on the circumstances of the world, not on a few classic remasters made by an entirely different studio.

Christopher Groux. The digital release will be followed by a physical release on December 7. The compilation will also come to iOS and Android in the first half of Curiously, the American Nintendo eShop page for the trilogy lists the game file size as We won't know anything for sure until Rockstar starts making some official announcements.

According to GamesIndustry. Zelnick could not be persuaded to comment on release plans for a game that hasn't been announced. So we kept them both up and they're both up to this day. That to me is the definition of a high-class problem. Although Zelnick was not commenting on GTA 6 directly, his comments do suggest that GTA 5 Online's success wouldn't necessarily stop Take-Two moving forward with a new instalment in the series. It could be on the cards if a posting on LinkedIn from an Australian development studio is anything to go by.

The studio has history with Rockstar, having worked on the VR adaption of L. The question is what game will be getting the VR treatment. An older title seems more likely and GTA 5 is the lead contender. The game seems to be perpetually popular and an expanded and enhanced version has already been confirmed for PS5, which could mean PSVR 2 involvement.

The good news for GTA 6 hopefuls is that this project is with an entirely different studio so if GTA 6 is in development, this VR project isn't likely to derail anything. The game will be enhanced and expanded, and feature a range of visual upgrades and improvements to performance that will take full advantage of the next-gen beefy hardware. A standalone version of GTA Online will also be made available for free, exclusively for PlayStation 5 players during the first three months.

While this is welcome news for GTA 5 fans, it suggests we probably won't see GTA 6 release until at least after mid and makes those reports of a or release seem more likely. This has led industry analyst Jeff Cohen to predict that this spike is because GTA 6 is expected to release within this period. However, the timing of the next Grand Theft Auto remains top-of-mind for investors, particularly with the stock near all-time highs.

If it is GTA 6 that has caused this spike, this would suggest that a delay has incurred - potentially due to Covid Take-Two Interactive has 93 games in the works Grand Theft Auto publisher, Take-Two Interactive, has revealed it has 93 "full game releases" planned for the next five years — and we're hoping GTA 6 is one of them.

During an earnings call via GamesRadar , Take-Two president Karl Slatoff said that this line-up is the strongest in the company's history, but what can we expect? Well, according to Slatoff, 63 of these games are "core gaming experiences", 17 will be "mid-core or arcade" and 13 are casual games. However, out of these 93 games, 21 will be exclusively mobile titles - with the other 72 landing on PC, consoles and streaming platforms. But, perhaps the most interesting stat from this meeting is that half of this games line-up is from existing IPs.

Suggesting we could be seeing GTA 6 in that five-year window, with the highly-anticipated next GTA falling into that "core gaming experiences" category. Our expectation is that we'd like to keep up this velocity," Slatoff said. We need more at-bats. CEO Strauss Zelnick explained that the publisher plans to smooth out its financial results with "a handful or greater of new significant releases every year".

And it looks like the company believes it may have some big successes in the pipeline. And we have some of those as well," Zelnick said. Reports of early development It seems that Grand Theft Auto 6 is in the early stages of its development if a report from Kotaku is anything to go by as of In the report which is primarily following up on the cultural changes that have taken place at Rockstar after a previous investigation into crunch at the studio, Kotaku has touched on the studio's future, including the fact that studio management has outlined a plan for "a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series".

The report goes on to say that this new installment is planned to be a "moderately sized release" so, probably still pretty big which will be "expanded with regular updates over time". The hope is that this approach will lessen stress and crunch. It's worth noting, though, that the report emphasizes that the game is still in the very early development stages so plans could quite easily change over time as the development process evolves.

Zelnick also stressed that some years would be thin on releases — which, given the launch of Red Dead Redemption 2 in , doesn't make us hopeful for any new GTA titles in the coming year. And that means, sometimes, we will have thin frontline years. Dan Houser leaves Rockstar Revealed in a statement by Rockstar Games parent company Take-Two Interactive, Houser who was has been on an extended leave period since spring will be officially leaving the company on March His brother Sam Houser remains present as president.

Houser, who has variously acted as writer, producer and voice actor at Rockstar, led Rockstar Games to become one of the biggest developers in the industry.

It's currently unknown whether this will have an impact on GTA 6's development. This doesn't rule out the return of CJ as a character entirely Rockstar could always cast someone else in the role but it does confirm that Bellard isn't involved and doesn't intend to be if asked. Rockstar hasn't commented on rumors and we won't know anything certain about the cast for GTA 6 until it speaks out. Scouting areas in Florida Speculation around a Florida setting — even a game that encompassed the whole state — has been brimming after a leaked letter was given legitimacy by a well-regarded Rockstar leaker, Yan The letter was to a Florida store asking permission for Rockstar Games to inspect the premises, presumably for use or inspiration in the forthcoming game — mentioning a location scout Leah Sokolowsky who hinted at a large digital media client in a podcast back in May via Daily Star.

The map and story get worked up together, and the story is a basic flow of how it works out so you can layer the mission in. However, whether a GTA 6 PC port will be released at the same time as its console counterparts isn't quite as straightforward. It may not have a simultaneous launch, but that extra bit of polish and development time has paid off so far, so hopefully PC fans are willing to wait a little bit again.
