Grand Theft Auto 6 Will Have No Microtransactions Or Generative AI

Grand Theft Auto VI. It's the most anticipated video game of the year, and possibly of all time. Netflix just aired a 27-minute extended trailer, and you've likely read multiple stories about it right here on this site since. Multiple media outlets are now talking about recent visits to Rockstar North in Scotland, and according to one source, GTA VI won't have any microtransactions at launch, and no generative AI was used in its development.

Speaking on the Kinda Funny Gamecast, Kinda Funny's Andy Cortez and Greg Miller revealed that they asked Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson about the potential for microtransactions in GTA, as well as the use of generative AI in its development. Both reported that the answer to both questions was simply "no."

"Can you use your own real-world money to buy things in the game? No monetization," Cortez said. "I asked point blank, 'is AI in the game?' No AI," Miller continued.

The lack of generative AI was also reported by The New York Times in its Grand Theft Auto VI feature posted earlier today. "Grand Theft Auto VI, Rockstar said, has well over 600,000 animations, compared with 55,000 animations in Grand Theft Auto V and 300,000 animations in Red Dead Redemption 2," the article said, which also confirmed that Rockstar "emphasized the new game’s human-made craft."
