GTA 6's Biggest Competition Officially Arrives on PC in 2027

Grand Theft Auto 6 is set to dominate 2026 with its long-awaited release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, another game — one heavily inspired by GTA, Marvel's Spider-Man, and Genshin Impact — will give Rockstar Games a run for its money: Ananta.

NetEase games showed up at Gamescom Opening Night Live in a big way this summer with Ananta. The game, which is basically "anime Grand Theft Auto," has been buzzy ever since it was announced, and now we have an official release date in early 2027.

Ananta's release date trailer begins with a short setup of the game's story, which seems pretty light. Players will take on the role of a supernatural investigator tasked with battling some evil guys. It doesn't seem all that important, but seeing the protagonist hang off the side of a plane mid-flight like he's Tom Cruise is admittedly pretty cool. Then we got a look at more gameplay that leans into the Grand Theft Auto comparisons. You'll explore two sprawling open-world cities and drive or fly around in scooters, cars, and more futuristic-looking vehicles. It will also include plenty of mini-games and activities to get invested in outside the main story.

Not to be outdone by Grand Theft Auto 6 's release, Ananta offers more than familiar riffs on Rockstar's series. Previous trailers have shown that NetEase is taking inspiration from almost every AAA game under the sun. That includes the ability to swing across the game's gorgeous anime cities like you are Spider-Man .
