Rockstar Games has spent more than a decade building on the success of Grand Theft Auto 5, with Red Dead Redemption 2 serving as the studio's only other major new release in that time. Now, Grand Theft Auto 6 is preparing to bring players back to Vice City with a new story, a larger world, and the most ambitious version of Rockstar's open-world formula yet. The wait has been long, but the studio believes the work behind GTA 6 could make future releases easier to develop.
The gap between Rockstar's major releases has become increasingly difficult for fans to ignore. GTA 5 launched in 2013, followed by Red Dead Redemption 2 in 2018, while GTA 6 has spent years in development ahead of its planned November 19 release date. Rockstar's incredible games have grown more complex with each generation, but the technology and tools required to build them could also benefit whatever the studio develops next. After investing so much time in GTA 6, Rockstar's leadership believes the next project will start from a stronger position.
