![]() According to Take-Two Interactive’s 2021 annual report, the company saw a jump in consumer spending for GTA Online of 31%. That’s a huge deal considering how much GTA Online has continued to grow. If GTA Online goes through a massive revamp, it’s not clear what will happen to player characters, although history doesn’t paint a hopeful picture. If you want to move your character now though, you’re out of luck. They could previously be moved once, with players opting to bring theirs to the PS4 or Xbox One once they launched. Rockstar hasn’t exactly been forgiving in the past with players moving their GTA Online characters. ![]() What happens when GTA Online moves to a new location? What happens to the properties players have bought, the cars they own, the weapons they have, the clothes they wear? But most importantly, players will wonder what will happen to their characters. GTA Online was designed to be a time sink, and people have indeed sunk tons and tons of time into the game. That’s nine years of growing one character, earning money with them, and buying clothes, properties, weapons, and cars, then customizing them all. Like any other game, GTA Online lives and dies by its player base, although it has a dedicated one that hasn’t let go for nearly nine years.Ĭonsider for a moment that there are people who have been playing GTA Online since the game was released in 2013. Whatever jump GTA Online eventually takes with GTA 6 - whether it’s overhauled entirely or simply moves to a new location with new characters - Rockstar needs to ensure it’s done in a way that doesn’t hurt players. GTA Online will have to be updated with that as well, it can’t look and feel like a game from 2013 while a mainline entry sports cutting-edge tech. GTA 6 isn’t going to release this year, and may not even come out next year, so it’s reasonable to expect a similar graphical leap as that seen with RDR2. We’ve already seen the improvements Rockstar can make in a short period of time with Red Dead Redemption 2, which came out five years after GTA V and still manages to look like a modern masterpiece. That applies to whatever updated engine GTA 6 runs on as well. They have to be equal in every respect, otherwise, there’s going to be a strange disconnect. Players will have to be able to explore wherever the game is set, talk to its characters, and have access to the same suite of vehicles and weapons available in the single-player game. Players work closely with them, especially Franklin, who is the focus of the game’s latest expansion, The Contract.įor GTA 6, the same will have to be true. Two of the game’s protagonists, Trevor and Franklin, appear in the game as quest givers. Once the game is stand-alone, the remnants of GTA V will still be in there.

That’s going to change soon, according to today’s Rockstar Newswire post, but for anyone who’s played the game so far, that’s been the experience. Currently, if you want to play the game, you have to purchase GTA V and progress through the game’s prologue. The game even sports more heists than GTA V, one of which, the Cayo Perico heist, takes players to an entirely new area.īut still, the two are inseparable and will continue to be even when GTA Online is sold by itself. ![]() GTA Online has gotten more cars and weapons through regular updates. ![]() Sure, Grand Theft Auto Online has expanded past the single-player game it sprouted from. It features the same characters and locations as the single-player game, and it has the same cars and weapons. Like GTA V, Grand Theft Auto Online is set in Los Santos. They have, from the beginning, shared more than just basic DNA. Hand in handĭespite the fact that Rockstar is releasing GTA Online as a stand-alone title - it’s launching alongside GTA V‘s next-gen version on March 15 - it and GTA V go hand in hand. The massively popular online Grand Theft Auto title will have to change to suit whatever GTA 6 ends up being, and that change has to come with players in mind first. ![]() And the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto franchise, whether it’s named GTA 6 or something else, will be a turning point for GTA Online. The game is a cash cow for both Rockstar and its parent company, Take-Two Interactive. We're pleased to confirm that active development for the next entry in the series is underway.īut more important than GTA V is its multiplayer counterpart, Grand Theft Auto Online.
