The last time we got an announcement for a new GTA, I was… eleven years younger, just that. Even if we knew the huge work to achieve such a game, moreover with a highly developed multiplayer aspect, we would never think of having to wait so long to have even snippets of information about a new GTA. But this time, here we are: Development studio Rockstar has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto is up and running. but what ? And above all, when?
The danger of disgusting players?
GTA V was so successful that it was too tempting for the Rockstar Games teams (especially American owner and distributor Take Two Interactive) not to enjoy it. And so paid DLC (downloadable content) and micro-transactions within the game began to flourish, to the point of making GTA V one of the most profitable artworks in history. It must be said that in three days of sales, when it was launched, it generated more than a billion dollars in sales for its creators.. A new record.
All these stories about big money somewhat disgusted some players, especially since Rockstar Games were not kind to them: many “mods” (content that allows you to modify part of the game, in terms of form or content) were banned from the development studio. All this, in the end, they offer their own redesigned version of the game: All good to earn a few extra bucks!
Many of you are asking about a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series.
With each new project, our goal is always to go above and beyond what we have previously provided. We are pleased to confirm that active development for the next entry in the series is underway.

So the new GTA is in full swing, but it will have to pay attention to the community and the financial side. At the moment, no information about the game has been filtered which could just be a sixth authorship like a special authorship. Rumors speak of a return to Vice City (Miami) in a form that will evolve over time, which will be a first for GTA. But whatever happens, we can already tell you that the car will have an important role in the game: customization and modifications to the community (with additions of models, especially the French!), Of course, we are already looking forward to it.
But as always, we must be patient: if the first images can arrive this year, Don’t count too much on getting your hands on the game before…2024? In the meantime, Gran Turismo 7 is likely to be worn out by now.
