Will we have to wait another 5 years before see Grand Theft Auto 6 is released? We analyse what reasons have potentially caused Rockstar to take the amount of time they have between GTA IV and GTA V, and whether we can expect to see this long wait again after Grand Theft Auto V finally comes out.
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
Hopefully not seeing as the new consoles are easier to develop for. Bearing in mind we will probably have a new Red Dead game before GTA6, so it might be a while. I think 6 years is a little excessive though. I'd say 4-5.
Almost definitely. Rockstar will be working on all their other franchises after this and perhaps some new ones too (Agent).
I still think GTA V should've been a PS4 / XboxOne launch title, especially given how some of the recent leaked in game screenshots look kind of bad if I'm honest (at least compared to all the promotional stuff).
I'm thinking a little more than 5 years tbh..
OT
- However, another read dead would be AMAZING.
I'm content waiting if we do. We'll surely get another Red Dead before then and it will be amazing. I'd also like to see them remake The Warriors. I can dream, can't I?
Do it right or don't do it at all
