Highly Anticipated Sequel
There are also new rumors that suggest the highly anticipated game will not be released in early 2025 despite previous sources suggesting such a timeline.
It was suggested that this is because the information was out-of-date and a result of Rockstar Games' tightening security and communication within itself, said Kotaku.
Now, sources suggest that the target release schedule for GTA 6 is in Fall 2025 and while many are confident it will stick, it could still be delayed further. The game is the sequel to 2013's GTA V, which is still increasingly popular in this day and age among players.
One of the most intriguing details that have been released about GTA 6 is that it will feature dual playable protagonists, which makes it the first to do so in the franchise. One of these characters is Lucia, who is the first female lead character in the series' history, and the male character is rumored to be named Jason.
The developer also confirmed that the game will feature a return to Vice City, which is the fictional Miami-inspired setting that was last seen in GTA Vice City in 2002. However, the game this time will feature the state of Leonida at its core, according to LiveMint.
