The announcement of GTA 6 has been somewhat unconventional. Rockstar, known for its tight-lipped approach to game development, was compelled to acknowledge the existence of GTA 6 prematurely. This move came in the wake of a significant data leak in September 2022, where over an hour of early development footage was released online. This leak not only confirmed the game’s development but also revealed that it would be set in Vice City and feature a female protagonist, a first for the series.
Grand Theft Auto 5, the predecessor, stands as one of the best-selling games of all time. Its successor, therefore, carries immense expectations. Fans and critics alike are eager to see how Rockstar will evolve the series, especially in terms of storytelling, gameplay, and technological advancements.
