We are very excited to let you know now that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.
Thank you,

I won’t be happy unless this game can simulate the universe, solve cold fusion, and resurrect my hamster. Anything less isn’t worth £60.
60? I wouldn’t be surprised if Rockstar uses this to start up $/£80 games…
Sterling being worth shit was fun while it lasted.
How about a 1:1 simulation of 72% of Argentina, lukewarm fusion and your hamster is undead? Mummy in the standard version, lich king in the deluxe.
Give me the Twin Glaives and we’ll call it a deal.
Acceptable.

I have very little hype for new rockstar games considering I know right now it’s not going to have story dlc and it’s going to be simply a vessel to get people into the online mode to spend buckets of cash on cards.
GTA IV had the radio crackle right before receiving a phone call just like how GSM radio interference worked at the time.
GTA V had in the middle of a restricted part of the map a drain overflow which has runoff to a floor light that was shorting out as a result.
Rockstar’s commitment to detail in their open worlds is unlike anything else, and they can never release any DLC again or support a title after launch at all and turn it into a vessel for funneling to their online money maker all day long and I’ll still eagerly await whatever morsels of that single player vessel I can get my hands on.
Yeah, they want to funnel you to multiplayer…but I’m not gonna sit here and pretend the funnel itself isn’t great. People were saying all this about RDR2 and while I think it lacked in certain design choices, it was not lacking in content and attention to detail.
My biggest gripe with their greedy desires to push everyone into online was the death of the director mode.
I really, really wanted director mode for RDR2. And I’m going to really want it for GTA 6.
And I’m sure I’m not getting it for either as it directly competes with online.
My thoughts exactly. However, it excites me that Rockstar still managed to make RDR2, and it was a masterpiece. Even so, I never played “Online” MP mode, nor have I ever played GTA’s, and I hope they noticed, lol.
Yeah. RDR2 is absolutely a masterpiece. It’s why I’ll still consider buying Rockstar games, but not on launch. They don’t get day one buys from me :D
Yeah I have no hype considering what they did with gta online pay walling all but a few of the cars
GTA games are expensive to make. All that multiplayer bullshit subsidies the single player campaign. I was pretty satisfied with GTA 5 and GTA 4 and didn’t touch the multiplayer. is it a big deal if they continue that pattern?
It is the single most profitable piece of media ever produced.
GTA V was supposed to have DLC and it was cancelled in favour of online. So those who don’t play online lost out whereas they traditionally wouldn’t have.
V was great and worth the spend but it’s 10 years later and we have a tweet for a sequel. So it’s justified to be disappointed in what we have been presented with and not be as excited.
I’m also afraid they’ll take it a bit to keep the younger crowds parents at bay.
Oh my god, am I dead?
Folks, seriously though, things are going to get very exciting very quickly. It’s fun to get on the hype train, I know I will, but please remember that this will be another game. Marketers are going to try to tell us they redefined gaming but they didn’t. Don’t let the hype get so high that it ruins the experience because nothing can live up to your hopes.
Get excited, but have realistic expectations. That’ll be the best way to enjoy the game.
Ryder! You sherm head!
This business is bigger than any gang, ese.
Oh my god it’s going to have so many microtransactions it’s going to be awesome. Not.
we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto.
I bet this is a massive troll and they’ll release a trailer for a GTA IV remaster.
Or their VR game
GTA IV remastered with V’s graphics would honestly be amazing.
Am I crazy to not be excited in the slightest for this? To me it seems that every sequel to a huge title that has come out lately has been hugely half passed because the studio that made the original doesn’t really exist anymore.
I’m not really excited because I felt like V basically took all of the fun detail out of the story and main world and saved it all for online.
The missions and world in V had so little charm and so little of the detail that made IV and previous so amazing. The world was massive but felt totally empty.
But I know they made a bunch of money with online so I’m sure that’s how it’s gonna be again this time.
Honestly, I don’t think you’re alone in not being excited. I feel the same about this one.
No, I think that’s fair. I miss being excited about new games, but the disappointment usually hits quick and hard if I ever allow myself to. Between rampant AAA shittification that’s accelerated recently, and the fact that a lot of AAA wasn’t all that good in the first place, it’s hard to really build up any enthusiasm.
Looking at Rockstar/Take-Two’s behavior in specific, since GTAV at the very latest, it’s even harder to be optimistic. I bet they’ll even find a way to cram shart cards into single-player, the fuckers.
At least it’s rumored they got the FiveM guys to do the multiplayer, so maybe it’ll be less abjectly, pathetically, monstrously shitty than GTAO. I assume they’ll still find some way to ruin it, though.
Now, if it turns out it’s great, I’d be ecstatic. I’m not buying this one anywhere near release but if it seems like a drastically better deal than I’m expecting, I’ll be very, very surprised - and I’d like a game to surprise me pleasantly for once.
Personally it has more to do with the infection of MBAs into AAA game dev space than the old guard retiring.
Nono this is exactly what I’m getting at. Monetization at all costs, art be damned.
I’ll def play it but not hyped for it. Hopefully they have a good amount of single player story. Rockstar has a way of writing story and character that’s so special. Hope that hasn’t changed
Yes, you are crazy.
The core development studio is literally the best in the world.
Every time they release a game it is so far ahead of everyone else in its commitment to a living open world that it moves the entire industry forward by leaps and bounds.
A few leads are no longer there, but this isn’t some Ayn Rand vision of game development where Benzies and the Houser brothers are the shoulders the game quality rests on. Do you see the shit Everywhere is looking like it’s turning into? Clearly not all the talent that left was a golden goose.
It’s the hundreds of people that are still there and who have come up through developing the prior games that are the lifeblood of the studio and whose efforts make an open world come alive.
There’s simply no other games that have the budget and resources behind them as Rockstar’s core games.
And it’s not like we’re jumping from GTA 5 to 6 with nothing in between as a reference point for what the studio can produce. RDR2 was in the middle between those, and was pretty darn impressive with how it moved things forward.
The only thing I could see as potentially being crappy would be if they are aiming to release it as cross generation to maximize sales. If they are really making it current gen only, I’m sure it’s going to be unlike anything we’ve seen so far.
Now we’re pre-hyping the hype trailers
I swear this game is going to flop because of the massive expectations people are going to have. I may be wrong and also never got the appeal of those games, so take my opinion with a grain of salt
The massive hype and popularity means everyone and their mother will buy it day 1 even if it ends up being trash. They don’t need to keep you happy, just to buy the game
I hate that you’re right. Because that’s what gaming is boiled down to today. How to maximize day 1 profit, no need for down the line customer enjoyment
Do you hear that? That’s the sound of a million NSFW mods for the female lead character!
Did they ever say it was called GTA VI, or did we all just assume that?
They keep saying next grand theft auto game. I guess we won’t gonna learn it until first trailer.
mfw it’s called “Next Grand Theft Auto”
Grand Theft Auto New!
I don’t think they’ve ever officially said GTA VI
I think it should be called Grand Theft Auto: Vice
I will buy it.
On PS5, PS6 and PS7.
Also available on whatever terribly named console Microsoft comes up with next.
XBox Series One X 360
Can they please make the online mode better. Spawn in get blown up, spawn in get shot, spawning get run over, it’s boring.
Hopefully they just make GTA Online it’s own separate standalone game so then maybe they’ll actually add content for a single player game after release for the first time in nearly 20 years and not just keep shitting out new microtransactions.
I’ll eat a sock if they do this. Take2 are some real hoes for microtransactions and have no issue cranking out half-baked content to the masses
Word. I tried it, I wanted to get in on it and have access to all the extra content. But when it’s like that, I start with a new character and then immediately have to contend with some little shit with a rocket launcher, welp, I’m out. I got rid of PlayStation+, or whatever the hell it’s called, altogether because I otherwise don’t care about online multiplayer.
Cue Michael Buffer: “Let’s get ready to get ready!”
I hope this is one of those times were the company making the the game knows just how intensely popular their game is and don’t advertise and hype it for 2 years prior to release. It’d be nice if they just launched their trailer, then have the game come out a month later.
There’s no way they’re launching this game in January. Start telling yourself now that it’s not coming out until fall 2025, that way anything sooner seems like a bonus.
Oh I know, I’m just saying I wish we didn’t have 2 straight years of hype coming.
Yeah, it would be nice, I feel like games shouldn’t be announced any more than 6 months from release, and preferably less, but this is the world we live in.
The leaks were already the trailer we wanted
They will development videos from God knows how long ago. No one really knows what the game is like now.
Spoiler: it’s like gta5
ITT: Miserable people and pessimists.
That’s all of lemmy lol, it’s like a joke how jaded and cynical people on here are, honestly worse than redditors
Seriously wtf… get a life you miserable fucks.
Hyper capitalization has ruined AAA games. Besides, what’s the point in entertainment when you know the climate apocalypse is happening all around us?
