‘GTA 6’ Release Date, News & Update: Everything We Know So Far; Possible 2019 Release

"GTA 6" rumors are slowly getting its way into the web. If proven true, the fans may be looking at the highly-awaited game's release date and settings.

"GTA 6" Is Likely On Pre-Production Stage

New rumors claim that "GTA 6" is now in its pre-production stage. This could mean that Rockstar is now in the most important part of development, wherein stories, ideas, gameplay elements and characters are being debated about and discussed. With that, the fans believe that the "GTA 6" Facebook group page should make more noise so that the team of developers would hear what they want, although there is no assurance that their ideas would be incorporated.

"GTA 6" announcement, meantime, is believed to be set in 2018, given that Rockstar is currently busy with "Red Dead Redemption 2." Although the long gap is expected to be frustrating for the fans, many believe that it makes sense, as the developers are known to be a perfectionist in terms of the development of its games. In fact, they have never released a "GTA" game in a hasty manner, which means "GTA 6" will get the same treatment.

That said, "GTA 6" may be released a year or two following next year's announcement. It should be noted, however, that "GTA 6" is believed to be the biggest entry in the whole franchise, which means Rockstar is likely to take some time to develop and finish the title, Value Walk reported.

"GTA 6" Will Be Set In A New Place

"GTA 6" rumors suggest that Rockstar may consider London as a new setting for the upcoming title since tradition dictates that the next "GTA" is likely taking place in a whole new location. However, some reports claim otherwise, noting that US settings have been an ideal place for Rockstar's game and further suggesting that the developers may not agree to a London setting. Meantime, "GTA 6" is expected to be industry-leading in terms of making a believable world and visual fidelity., Expert Reviews reported.
