GTA 6 and Take-Two CEO comments on future release velocity, Digi Mart USA News: The highly anticipated GTA 6 is set to launch in just a few days, more than 13 years after GTA 5. According to a publisher article, the game is available for pre-order on Amazon, and fans are already turning their attention to what might come next in the franchise.
In a recent interview with IGN, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick was asked whether he believes Rockstar could release games more frequently in the future. He said: “We do think that the nature and velocity of the content we’ll see from our iconic franchises, including GTA, will look dramatically different over the next decade.”
The article notes that this is not a guarantee that a GTA 7 will arrive sooner. However, it suggests Rockstar could increase its development pace.
Comments from Rockstar developers, reported earlier in October, were cited as a possible explanation for what Zelnick may have meant.
Much of the groundwork for future projects has already been laid during GTA 6 development, according to the article. The upgraded game engine, new development tools and experienced teams could all benefit later titles, potentially allowing Rockstar to release new content more quickly.
The article cautions that this does not necessarily point to full sequels such as GTA 7 or Red Dead Redemption 3. Zelnick could also be referring to updates for existing games or additional content for GTA Online. Whether a GTA successor arrives sooner, and by how much, will depend on both development time and Rockstar’s internal plans.
