Grand Theft Auto 6 (Rumor Mill) (Vice City?)

So some "leaks" were revealed today.

https://www.gamesradar.com/gta-6-leak-project-americas/

Quote:

The next GTA title has been in development since 2012, but production didn't begin properly until 2015, but even then the team was focusing more on*Red Dead Redemption 2. *

It's another Rockstar Worldwide Production.

Codename is PROJECT AMERICAS.

Set in both Vice City and a new fictional location based on Rio de Janeiro.

Some linear missions take place in Liberty City, but it isn't an open world (think Ludendorff in*GTA 5).

Game will balance realism and arcade and it won't be as realistic as Red Dead Redemption 2.

One playable protagonist: male, not female, despite supposed leaks.

Set in 1970s-1980s.

You play as an up and coming drug lord-wannabe named "Ricardo". Another key character called “Kacey” is a part of the narrative. You start off as a grunt doing runs as a cocaine smuggler from Vice City to the new large South American area before making connections with big time drug lords and making your way up. Multiple cities.

There will also be a giant prison which will play a part in the game.

Will feature a 'chapter' system similar to a Tarantino flick or Red Dead Redemption 2.

Weather is a heavy focus (hurricanes, floods, etc).

Buildings change over the eras, vehicles too. So older, rare classic cars get more expensive as time progresses etc. Full economy.

Heavily inspired by Netflix's Narcos.

They want to have an incredible 70s/80s soundtrack.

A younger Martin Madrazo will make an appearance as will his father who is a big drug lord at the time. You do some missions for the Madrazo family involving hits on other gangs.

Drug empire building is a mechanic similar to Vice City Stories but bigger. Think the*GTA Onlinesystem and dial it up to 10.

You can only have weapons on your person. No arsenal in your back pocket, like Red Dead Redemption 2.

Your personal vehicle will be like your horse saddle in Red Dead Redemption 2. All your equipment is stored in the trunk. You also store your body armour in the car. If you wear it, it appears, no longer just an invisible thing.

There will be tons of subtitle reading. Think Max Payne 3 amounts, very immersive, like watching an episode of Narcos. Whenever you're in South America, don't expect to hear much English. Vice City however is a mix of everything, but mostly English.

Last bit of narrative info, it will discuss topics such as HIV and the immigration crisis of the time. A fictional version of Fidel Castro etc.

Next-gen only, not PS4 or Xbox One [aka*PS5and*Xbox Project Scarlett]

GTA 6 is now their primary focus, alongside another title (which might be Bully 2).

Game is still in Pre-Alpha so names, locations, details could and probably will change.

No ETA on a release date.

The game is set back in Liberty City, modern day.

The plot in the beginning of the game is reminiscent of The Wire.

Police officers are trying to crack down a gang/drug ring based around a night club.

There are four main characters, two police and two gang members.

The plot then twists and turns and goes to upstate New York, where it becomes more crime noir, think Ozark and Breaking Bad.

It will have twice the amount of dialogue as GTA 5 and a really crazy plot twist.

The main storyline splits after a while, the criminal side has sort of a sandbox build-a-crime-empire thing (Fallout 4 meets the Sims), while the police side is more of a traditional action game with a little twist of LA Noire.

Earliest release is holiday 2021, but I would guess later, 2022 or 2023.

The leak has been confirmed fake by Jason Schreier from Kotaku. If you don't know who that is he is like the Adrian Wojnarowski of video gaming. Everything he says is 99% accurate.

Read the rumor the other day on NeoGAF. Hoping Jason is wrong because all of that sounds awesome. Hoping the rumor is true.

Yeah Jason Schrier is legit... a really cool dude too.

This sounds great, although I wouldn't have been mad at another 3 character game.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 6 (Rumor Mill) (Vice City?)

Holy crap this sounded awesome. Vice City to Rio seems a little odd. The drug smuggling theme is definitely popular right now, but you'd almsot think they'd do something about Mexico into San Andreas, Las Venturas, perhaps an Arizona desert area (Picturing Breaking Bad type stuff), etc.

I do like the direction of the storyline if that's someone true. It would fit the interest of people (All these shows like Narcos have become huge).

If it's fake, hopefully it's on the right track. Just confused about Vice City into Rio because of the distance. Mexico into Cali, Arizona, Vegas, etc. seems to make more sense, but obviously could understand them wanting to redo Vice City they way they redid Los Santos in GTAV.

It reminded me of when that full Avengers Endgame trailer rumour came out. It was a typed out narrative of the trailer (That turned out ot be fake), but it was basicalyl a narrative that put all of the hopes fans had into a trailer to get people excited.

This almsot felt similar. I dont want to say its too good to be true, because Rockstar really does not disappoint, but it just sounds too perfect to be leaked this early.

I hope Vice City 70's and 80's turns out to be true. That all sounded awesome.
