"We are extremely disappointed to have any details of our next game shared with you all in this way. "We recently suffered a network intrusion in which an unauthorised third party illegally accessed and downloaded confidential information from our systems, including early development footage for the next Grand Theft Auto," the statement reads. So we think it's highly possible that Take-Two could look to make Rockstar Games expedite the time spent between a GTA 6 announcment and release.Rockstar published a statement to Twitter (below), saying the "early development footage" was illegally taken from its systems following a network intrusion and its disappointed to have its new game shared for the first time this way.Ī Message from Rockstar Games /T4Wztu8RW8- Rockstar Games September 19, 2022 ![]() But I think eight years is probably too long." I was a real outlier 12 years ago when we said we don't think it makes sense to annualize non-sports titles, and now most people would agree. "And we believe in resting titles as a great thing. But we find that intersection between the time it takes our creators to do the best work in the industry on the one hand, and what the consumer wants, recognizing that building anticipation is a good thing. " Our ability to engage with consumers on an ongoing basis has some less pressure on getting to market with an all-new title. More specifically, Zelnick identified that games like Red Dead Redemption 2 - which enjoyed an eight-year development cycle - were probably in development 'too long'. Speaking earlier this year, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick praised the critical and commercial response to certain 2K releases, but also lamented the time it took to bring certain titles to market. And we think they might also accelerate when they look to release.Īgain, we're merely speculating at this point, however, we think 2021 is the year when Rockstar Games could attempt to release a new Grand Theft Auto.Įven if Rockstar were to announce the game in 2020, it would require an accelerated development cycle we've not seen from the developer.īut it's clear the companies parent company, Take-Two Interactive, want to expedite the release schedules for their big propitiates. The bottom line, we don't think GTA 6 will release in 2020, but we do think this is the year we finally see some sort of confirmation from Rockstar Games that the game is in development. So we can't imagine Rockstar Games would simply stealth drop the game like that in 2020. However, typically Rockstar has always allowed themselves a huge gap between their announcment and release, even delaying the launch in most cases.įor instance, GTA 5 was announced on November 1st, 2011, but released roughly two years later. It's believed that GTA 6 supposedly started production as far back as 2016, at least if you believe what one report by Tech Radar suggests. Whilst we can appreciate that most fans think 2020 is the big year, we're sorry to say that we think the 35% of those who voted in our poll are most probably wrong. Previously we've been asking fans for their input in 2019 and according to the results of our poll, which has seen over 39,000 responses, 35% of people think the game is coming 2020.Ģ020 2021 2022 2023 Shut up and give me Bully 2 Is GTA 6 coming out in 2020? The game just refuses to go quietly into the night, but the question of a sixth entry in the series continues to remain a hot topic amongst console and Rockstar Games fans. ![]() It was also the third most-watched video game of 2019, thanks in no small part to the games Diamond Casino & Resort update. That's an awful long time for fans to wait for the next entry and as we've seen in recent months, anticipation around Rockstar's next Grand Theft Auto launch has pretty much reached fever pitch.ĭespite this, GTA 5 continues to dominate the games industry chart and it's showing no signs of slowing down.Īccording to a report by Games Industry (Via RockstarIntel ), Grand Theft Auto 5 was the most digitally downloaded game in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia this past Christmas. Rockstar Games released GTA 5 on PS3 and Xbox 360 over eight years ago, hitting shelves on 17 September 2013.
