GTA 6 is almost here, but there's still one major question surrounding Rockstar Games' next open-world game: what happens to GTA Online? With Grand Theft Auto 5 and its multiplayer component remaining incredibly popular more than a decade after their original release, it's difficult to imagine Rockstar launching GTA 6 without eventually introducing a new online experience. However, the developer has been surprisingly quiet about its multiplayer plans, even as the November 19 release date approaches.
Of course, GTA Online has become a massive part of the Grand Theft Auto franchise, receiving years of updates, new businesses, heists, vehicles, and other content. What started as a multiplayer companion to GTA 5 has effectively become its own ongoing game, giving Rockstar another reason to keep supporting it. With GTA 6 introducing Vice City and the larger state of Leonida, there's plenty of potential for a new multiplayer experience. However, Rockstar and its parent company Take-Two Interactive have made some interesting comments about what players should expect about GTA 6 and its Online counterpart.
