A lengthy new report on Grand Theft Auto 6 confirms that Rockstar has been planning the game since at least 2015 and that Project Americas was indeed the original concept.
Although the last few years of waiting for GTA 6 have felt the most painful thanks to the multiple delays and long silences, at least we’ve known the highly anticipated game was on some kind of distant horizon. Until Rockstar finally confirmed the next game in the series was in development all the way back in 2022, leaks and reports were all we had to keep us fed.
The earliest information about GTA 6 claimed that it was internally referred to as Project Americas and was originally planned to feature both North and South America before focusing in on Leonida. It’s been a long time since that was reported, but it’s just been confirmed by Rockstar in a feature that reveals how long the game has really been in the works.
Earlier today, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier shared a report on GTA 6 that deep dives into its storied development, Rockstar’s future, and much more. One of the most interesting tidbits comes when Schreier reports that co-studio head Rob Nelson and other staff flew to Miami for their first research trip in 2015.
Sony is right - Grand Theft Auto 6 is probably going to play best on PlayStation.
While it’s been reported that development on GTA 6 started in earnest in 2018 , Bloomberg’s report reveals that it was being considered a few years before that.
