Grand Theft Auto 6rumors are a dime-a-dozen, and this may be especially true following the latest debacle. A recent report indicatedGrand Theft Auto 6was in early development, meaning it would still be quite a few years before it ever surfaced. Other insiders denied this report, stating it was closer to 60-70% done, with rumors even popping up that its main story was finished.
Either way, the latest rumor should be taken with equal measures of salt following the recent rumors and leaks, as it too appears to be made in response to this. Two posts appeared on the anonymous image board 4chan, with both originating from the same employee. The leaker claims to be friends with a disgruntled employee, which given that was the claim against theLast of Us 2leaker (later confirmed not to be true), it’s entirely possible this is all made up.

Nonetheless, it claims active development onGrand Theft Auto 6began in 2016 or 2017, with the game map apparently both similar toGrand Theft Auto San Andreasand the size ofGTA 5andRDR2combined. It reportedly has 3 major cities with 1 smaller city to the northwest, likeGTA San Andreas. The area is supposedly based on Florida, but Vice City isn’t the only major area.
There are reportedly 4 protagonists, one named Walter Wallace, a currently un-named former IDF soldier, a smuggler known as Thomas Branigan who owns a plan called The Raven, and Marcus Burke, a single father. The story focuses on what these characters seemingly have in common, the drug trade, and players will visit a small island in Central America (notRDR2’s Guarmathough). There are time skips, although how and why isn’t stated.
Other details include the return ofRDR2cores, improved character switching, improved parkour, better weapon functionability, impoved hand-to-hand combat, character-specific powers, the return of Mori Kibbutz, weight gain, and more. This reportedly comes from info in 2019, although the leaker denies any knowledge of reveals or trailers.
At the end of the day, this rumor sounds like a smorgasbord of features taken from a variety of Rockstar Games titles. With the “source” of information and seemingly direct reliance on disproving the aforementioned early development report, fans are best to file this away until more concrete information surfaces, either confirming or de-confirmed this claim. After all, it sounds more like aGrand Theft Auto 6fan theory.
Grand Theft Auto 6is rumored to be in development.
