Expert Verified By

Renamed The Studio To Rockstar Australia!

Story Highlight
  • Rockstar Games has just announced the acquisition of Video Games Deluxe.
  • The Australian studio has previously helped Rockstar Games with GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition.
  • The studio may likely assist in the development of GTA 6. 

GTA 6 is undoubtedly the most anticipated release in the gaming industry currently. While the title is planned to be released later this year, Rockstar Games has been quiet about the release date.

Although recent reports suggest that the title may likely be playable throughout, many fans still doubt its development. Following these concerns, the studio has just announced the acquisition of Video Games Deluxe.

Why it matters: The Australian studio has a history with Rockstar Games. It helped fix the GTA Trilogy, which was the worst-reviewed game of 2021, to make it much more playable. 

GTA 6
The upcoming Grand Theft Auto title might be the industry’s saviour.

Just recently, it was officially confirmed that Rockstar Games has acquired Video Games Deluxe, the studio formed by former Rockstar employee Brendan McNamara, who has previously worked on titles like L.A. Noire. 

Take-Two has also stated in an official statement that, having worked closely with Video Games Deluxe over many years, we are excited to have them join our Australia team. Brendan McNamara has also expressed his excitement about joining Rockstar Games.

We are thrilled to be a part of Rockstar Games and to continue our efforts to make the best games possible.
