GTA VI could already be in development according to a Rockstar statement
GTA V has become the longest-running game in the saga, almost 9 years since its launch and so far it has not had a replacement.
However, this could change soon, since it has been known that Rockstar could already be working on the development of GTA VI.
The new version of GTA V for PS5 and Xbox Series will be released very soon, but this has not been the only thing that Rockstar has announced.
In a message posted on Twitter, the company has confirmed that the new installment of the saga is already in development. This will be none other than the long-awaited GTA VI.
Obviously this is news that has excited all fans of this video game saga. However, so far no further details about this new project are known.
Why has it taken so long for this new announcement to arrive?
GTA V was released in September 2013, that is, almost 9 years ago, which makes it the longest running game in the saga.
This game came out for PS3 and Xbox 360, since then a version for PC, PS4 and Xbox One has been released. But this does not end there, we will also have a version for PS5 and Xbox Series, this is the only game that has been present on three generations of consoles.
So, you are probably wondering why this is all about and why Rockstar has waited so long to announce a new game.
The answer is quite simple and the truth is that GTA V has also been the best-selling and highest-grossing game of all.
After GTA V was released, we saw the arrival of GTA Online, which was something that all the fans asked for. And this became the goose that lays the golden eggs for Rockstar, for all these years, GTA Online and GTA V have not stopped selling copies.
In 2021 alone, the company sold 10 million copies, an astronomical number for a game that launched in 2013.
And it is that the company itself has said that this game represents 40% of the company's annual performance .
During all this time, the company has focused on GTA Online and squeezing it as much as possible.
That is why they have not had time to stop to start the development of the sixth installment, at least until now, since we know that it is under development.
When will GTA VI be available?
So far no further details are known regarding this project except that it is under development.
That is why it is not known exactly when this new game will be available.
You have to wait for new news regarding GTA VI to know exactly when it will be available.
The development of one of these games takes years, and it is not known exactly at what stage of development it would be.
In this sense, we have that it could take a few years until this new game is finally available.
All fans of the saga will eagerly await the next news about GTA VI.
