Everything is headed for release Grand Theft Auto VI in 2025. According to financial reports, Take-Two Interactive plans to launch the gangster action in the first three months of 2025. However, the official date has not yet been set and there may well be a slight delay.
From the outside, it looks like everything is going according to plan. Expected game entered the final phase of development. In it, Rockstar focuses on productivity, the highest quality and safety. Therefore, employees are ordered to be in the offices five days a week from April/April of this year. Jenn Kolbe, Rockstar's head of publishing, told subordinates in an email on Wednesday to prevent further leaks and increase productivity, according to Bloomberg.
“Making these changes puts us in the best position to deliver the next Grand Theft Auto at a level of quality and polish that matches the scope and ambition of the game,” she stated and reminded of the fulfillment of the development schedule. This should be easier when working in an office.
But the employees are not satisfied with the decision. What do you think, have the leaks so far been added up? In September/September 2022, gameplay footage from the early development of the version was leaked, and at the end of last year, the first trailer appeared prematurely. Perhaps the developers are confident that they can create such an ambitious and large game from their homes. For example, the action-adventure Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for PlayStation 5 was created remotely.
In the video game world, 75% of employees are expected to work remotely. The change happened in the time of covid, and people boast that they don't have to travel to offices, which are often in wealthy neighborhoods. In addition, according to the survey, remote work has no effect on productivity.
GTA 6 will be released first on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Rockstar traditionally does not talk about the PC version.
