Report: Rockstar Games Has Begun Preliminary Development on Grand Theft Auto VI

Despite still maintaining something of a place in the public consciousness, Grand Theft Auto V is actually old news. It released initially two and a half years ago, back in September 2013, so perhaps it’s no surprise it’s being reported that Rockstar Games has begun development on Grand Theft Auto VI. That’s right: Techradar is reporting that “a source close to the [Rockstar Games]” has revealed information that the game studio has begun “preliminary work” on the next major entry in the Grand Theft Auto franchise.

Is the information true? Uh, well…it seems reasonable enough, and Techradar seems to think so, so I’m gonna answer that with a fat “yah, I mean, probably.” Also, apparently Rockstar hasn’t actually settled on a location for GTAVI just yet, so we’re talking really preliminary.

I write editorials here at Gamnesia and occasionally some news (though far less often than I used to). Here's some of my work, long-form game essays, if you have any interest in that sort of stuff: The Amount of Content in a Game Has Nothing to do with its Price A Game's Atmosphere is Defined by its Mechanics, Not its Aesthetic The Witcher 3's Introduction is Terribly Paced and Too Restrictive of its Players I'm looking forward to The Last Guardian (had it pre-ordered since 2010), Rime, Night in the Woods, and Vane. If I had a niche, it would probably be the somewhat higher fidelity indie games, as take up most of the spots on that list. I'm also developing a no-budget video game with a friend, and you can follow me on Twitter (@TheVioletBarry) to hear about that and anything else I feel like saying. Film, games, it's that sort of stuff.
