We're probably closer than we realize to seeing GTA VI. Rockstar Software will release GTA 6 in an effort to recreate the fifth installment's amazing popularity, which has been unmatched in the gaming industry, after more than a decade of success. But we can only rely on leaks because we don't know more about this release.

Although it seems like there is still a long way to go before the game's release, there are already a lot of theories about what will happen in GTA VI. Official trailers haven't been released yet, and GTA V's online mode is still receiving updates. Yet, if we look closely, we can spot some pretty intriguing leaks. These are a few examples.

Will GTA VI feature a female protagonist?

The idea that a woman will at least play a part in GTA 6 is one of the developments that seems closer to becoming a reality. The two main characters, according to a Bloomberg article published in July, will be a Latina brother and sister.

It is unclear how the game's narrative will develop with two protagonists. As the story progressed in GTA V, you could switch characters, so this is likely to happen. However, they could also make an Assassin's Creed Odyssey where players could choose to play with one or both of their brothers.

The fact that Rockstar did not release any DLC for Grand Theft Auto V is widely regarded as one of the game's biggest flaws. As a result, the game's story and map have remained unchanged ever since. The developer company never touched the plot of GTA Online while they were concentrating on it.

GTA 6 might alter this. On the GTA Forums, leaker Tez2 said that the game will grow the city with new DLC that will also add more layers to the story. This would follow the concept of the two expansions to GTA IV.

A new game engine will be used in GTA VI.

Rockstar is known for being at the forefront of graphics. In this regard, Red Dead Redemption 2 was an absolute masterpiece, and with GTA VI, they hope to continue the saga's legacy.

The company will be utilizing an improved version of its RAGE engine (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine) in order to once more revolutionize the graphics industry. Chris Klippel, a member of the company, reported this.

The game's new engine will make it look great, which is why it might take some time to be released. Since they've been using the same mechanics for two decades, it could also help the gameplay get better.

After portraying the cities of New York (Liberty City) and Los Santos (Los Angeles), GTA VI will return to Vice City. Everything suggests that GTA 6 will be set in Vice City, the city in Miami (Florida, USA) where the 2002 video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was set. The location of Vice City

One reason to consider this possibility is Rockstar's decision to remove a well-liked Vice City mod from GTA V in 2021. This was probably done to avoid leaks or the possibility that it would kill the surprise they were planning for the next game.

Characters from previous GTA games will appear in GTA VI One, according to a more speculative but perfectly reasonable rumor. These characters will appear in GTA 6. Given that Vice City may return, it wouldn't be surprising if we saw characters we were already familiar with.

The most recent and significant GTA 6 rumor states that the game will be released in 2024. We haven't even seen a trailer for the game, so Rockstar hasn't shown it to the public yet. However, Tez2, who appears to have obtained the original game files, claims that it is finished and undergoing release testing.
