Seeing the success of GTA 5 developers after nearly a decade are moving on to GTA 6. The game was said to be released in 2024 but later got delayed to 2025 as seen in the latest trailer.
As seen in the past rockstar games have consistently pushed the boundaries of open-world gaming. There are many leaks, rumors, and speculations floating around the game, including it being set in two different periods. Let’s dive into the features I am most excited about in GTA 6 and am sure you will enjoy when the game is released.
Expanded, Diverse Map and Leaks On Vice City’s Return
One of the most anticipated features of GTA 6 is the rumored extended map. According to the information I gathered, the map of GTA 6 will build over time. What this means is that the map will not stay the same over the life of the game.
New cities and areas will be added now and then to keep things interesting. Players tired of Los Santos will be able to explore more areas and thus will enjoy more.
It has also been rumored that Vice City will also be included in the game. Gamers and fans including myself are especially excited about this. It has been quite a while since the first screenshot of GTA 6 was released. Since then, many rumors have gathered regarding the return of Vice City and gameplay clips have also been leaked.
Expanded Online Multiplayer Experience
In the past, GTA Online has been a major success, and Rockstar Games is expected to build upon this success in GTA 6. There will be an extended online multiplayer mode with new activities, missions, and events.
This will create endless entertainment and is one of the biggest GTA 6 features that I am excited about apart from the map. The inclusion of this feature will undoubtedly engage players with the game.
Main Characters
The first time we saw the concept of multiple protagonists in a GTA game was in GTA 5. The game had three main characters Micheal De Santa, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips.
The new installment, however, will not see three main playable characters. GTA 6 features two main characters as far as recent reports suggest. The story revolves around a female character Lucia and a male character Jason.
The game will also see the first female protagonist in the series. As in GTA 5, the new installment will also allow to shuffle between the main characters.
Enhanced Graphics and Realism
Rockstar games have always been at the forefront of graphical innovation in gaming. By seeing leaks and trailers it is obvious that GTA 6 graphics will look very lifelike. The reports and leaks also suggest that the game might be locked at 30FPS and will make use of photorealism.
Using new technology it is quite obvious that GTA 6 will see amazing breathtaking visuals. Everything from the weather patterns, day and night patterns, and characters will be extremely life-like to create player immersion.
Dynamic NPC Behavior
In the previous GTA games, NPCs added a layer of realism and unpredictability to the world. GTA 6 is rumored to take this a step further with more responsive and dynamic NPCs.
It is highly likely that by using advanced AI technology the game will become much more immersive and life-like. I mean imagine witnessing a street fight, protest, accident, or a collective celebration in the game, and it’s all a possibility.
Innovative Heist Missions
Heist missions were a standout feature in GTA 5 and one that many players enjoyed. Different operations that require careful planning and execution will make things all the more interesting. GTA 6 is expected to introduce even more complex and hard missions possibly involving multiple cities and more objectives that will hook players.
Last Thoughts
There is no doubt in my mind that GTA 6 will be one of the best open-world games out there after it finally releases. With many rumors at the moment, it’s hard to say what fact and what’s not, nonetheless, the game looks good enough in the trailer utilizing Unreal Engine 5. I for one am very excited to see what becomes of the game and at this point, all we can do is wait to see what features we get.
