If true, this would be the first female protagonist in a GTA game since the very first Grand Theft Auto, and the first female protagonist in a fully 3D GTA game created in the style we know today. Not much was mentioned about the male protagonist, but the female was said to be Latina. The other big detail in the report was about its duo protagonists, a pair of bank robbers likened to Bonnie and Clyde. But it also mentioned that map size may be traded for density, as this new entry contained more indoor locations than any GTA game previously.

This report seemed to confirm the altered scope of GTA 6, claiming that the game would start with one city, Miami, with more to be added later. Our first concrete details of the sequel from outside of Rockstar were reported by Bloomberg in July 2022, five months after Rockstar's official announcement. Thankfully, the worst part of the wait seemed to be over as more info about Grand Theft Auto 6 started to drop pretty quickly soon after. While a few more leaks and rumors would arise in the next two years, it wasn't until February 2022 that Rockstar sent out a press release announcing that development on the next GTA game was “well underway.” A decade’s worth of smoke had finally led to a very real fire, and we had official confirmation from the studio. The report also mentioned a possible decrease in scope to help alleviate crunch, with larger title and map updates to be released at a future date. While this report was primarily focused on Rockstar’s workplace culture, it mentioned that the next GTA game was “early in development,' something confirmed to IGN by an anonymous source close to Rockstar Games. But we first heard reliably that GTA 6 was in development from a 2020 Kotaku report, published only a few short months after the departure of Dan Houser from the studio. That simmering turned into a slow boil when co-founder of Rockstar Games and brother to Sam, Dan Houser, spoke about the difficulty of satirizing the then-present day, stranger-than-fiction landscape: “ really unclear what we would even do with, let alone how upset people would get with whatever we did.”ĭan Houser’s (probably very honest) deflections aside, with the abundance of rumors and insider reports, it’s safe to assume some version of GTA 6 was always in at least pre-production at Rockstar since the release of Grand Theft Auto V. Between hypothetical comments from the newly-departed former president of Rockstar North, Leslie Benzies, in interviews with Digital Trends in 2012, and a TechRadar report in 2016 claiming that GTA 6 was in development, there’s been a quiet simmering of GTA 6 rumors in the background ever since the launch of Grand Theft Auto V. While we didn’t get any concrete details about GTA 6 until a report from Kotaku in 2020, there have been murmurings about GTA 6 for over a decade - before GTA 5 was even released.
