Fans who are anticipating the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 will not be pleased to hear the latest update on the game's development, according to one insider. Rumors are swirling that GTA 6's development has been plagued with issues, casting doubt as to when the full game might finally drop.
Grand Theft Auto 6 has been one of the most highly-anticipated games for years, but very little is known about the title. With its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto 5, approaching the ten-year mark since its release, fans of the franchise are desperately seeking any information about GTA 6. While Rockstar Games has been tight-lipped about a possible GTA 6, not even confirming a time that the game might release, fans have been scouring social media for clues. It got to the point that fans were scouring the recently-released GTA Trilogy Remastered for clues about Grand Theft Auto 6. There have been some leaks as to the setting of GTA 6, with many speculating it would be set in Vice City, but little is known about the game's development. According to one insider, that might be a good thing for Grand Theft Auto fans.
According to Rockstar analyst AccNGT on Twitter, the GTA 6 development has apparently been quite "chaotic" (via Dexerto). While AccNGT doesn't go into any specifics about the nature of this chaos, the news is quite concerning for interested fans. AccNGT also notes that if the game is announced in late 2021 or early 2022 that GTA fans may have cause for concern. That may signal that AccNGT believes that Rockstar might be rushing Grand Theft Auto 6 if a release date is announced soon, but it's unclear what exactly the concern is regarding.
This news is certainly worrying for GTA fans following the disappointing release of the GTA Trilogy. The game was panned by critics and fans for its lackluster remastering, which some accused of being a port of GTA mobile games. The trilogy was also littered with glitches and bugs, including the infamous rain glitch that made the game nearly unplayable for some. Although AccNGT assures players that GTA won't have issues with graphics, it will be of little comfort to players frustrated by the GTA Trilogy.
Despite this poor reception for the remastered trilogy, Grand Theft Auto 6 remains a highly-anticipated game. Rockstar's track record of development and the series's reputation for deep story-telling, fluid controls, and exceptional graphics will make it one of the biggest games of the current generation. However, according to AccNGT, players should be wary of what that game might look like.
