GTA 6: Live updates as Rockstar Games 'internally delays' title to 2026
www.indy100.com

Rockstar Games' GTA 6 is fast becoming, if it isn't already, the most highly-anticipated video game of all time and fans are continuing to post and speculate despite there being little in the way of official updates since the first trailer for it dropped in December 2023.Take-Two, Rockstar's parent ...

The GTA 6 delay is not real, Rockstar devs reportedly say

    the most highly-anticipated video game of all time…

    Ehhhh I guess, if your asking the kids that play online. Everyone I know and have seen really does not care about it. They jumped the shark with all the online bs.

      Yeah.

      You just KNOW there’s going to be more online microtransaction-y bullshit in 6 because they made SO MUCH from 5.

      Makes it hard to be more than I’ll-wait-for-reviews-and-the-first-sale interested, personally.

      I think you mean “they jumped the shark cards”.

      It’s not like they care anyways, it’s all just a live service now because they’re raking in the cash. I’ve resigned to probably not being able to play this series again at this point.

      GTA 6 trailer is currently sitting at 206M. It’s not my most anticipated game (MH: Wilds!), but I would be delusional to think any game is more anticipated that gta 6 right now.

        I don’t play, but that’s probably caused by users with potato connections or extremely high ping being allowed to connect to the server. Pretty common problem with online games.

          Iirc, there was a bug with the games loading config parser being written so horribly bad what should take a second took 5 minutes…

            Oh wow, so it has literally nothing to do with connecting players to the server or with each other? That is wild they wouldn’t have spent the time to fix it given all the money it makes, but hardly surprising.

      GTA 5 was highly anticipated, even before anyone knew anything about online. GTA 6 is highly anticipated for the same reason. It’s a massive IP and most people just play the singleplayer anyway. Just because you and your friends don’t really care, doesn’t mean it’s not going to be the biggest launch of the decade (well, in history probably). I’m skeptical myself and will see what it is like once it comes out, but I can’t say I’m not interested in another GTA game.

      I mean, just the trailer became the highest viewed youtube video in 24 hours, which is not music. I’d say it’s highly anticipated.

      I don’t actually play GTA online, but they are very successful with their online offering, their daily low looks to be >60k concurrent players. I suspect it’d be VERY hard not to continue with the online bit.

    On the contrary, I was going to ask you guys here, am I wrong to believe that there is zero interest in GTA 6? Or at the very least, people don’t care about a game that won’t be released for a year and a half?!?

      I honestly don’t care because I’ve had it with both Rockstar and Take Two with their bullshit. I had already sworn off buying GTA6 before they ever announced it.

    Half Life 3 is the most anticipated video game of all time.

      That would be true if Half Life 3 was a game that existed and not just a dream
