GTA 6 is going to be massive.

If you are a fan of video games, then you have probably been waiting on GTA 6 to be released. Of course, GTA V came out back in 2013. Moreover, it got a Next-Gen version in 2014, and subsequently got another Next-Gen upgrade. This game has lasted three console generations, and there is a realistic chance it survives four. Overall, this is not acceptable for a lot of fans. Rockstar Games has refused to give proper updates on this series, and fans don't know when the next game will come out.

Over the last few years, a target year of 2025 and 2026 has been suggested. Furthermore, it appears to be confirmed that the game will take place in Vice City. If you played the 2002 title GTA: Vice City, you know that this is a stylized version of Miami. Although, you can expect the new map to be significantly larger and livelier. Moreover, you can also expect the game to cost Rockstar Games a pretty penny to put together.

According to a report from Dexerto, GTA 6 is going to cost a grand total of $1 billion to make. In fact, the final production costs will probably be larger than that. When GTA 6 was created, it had the largest budget of any piece of media in the history of entertainment. Of course, it was eventually surpassed as budgets began to grow and inflation consumed the industry. With this budget north of $1 billion, it seems like Rockstar Games is looking to take its record back.

For those of you who want to play GTA 6, well, you will have to be patient. If you can survive 10 years without a new game, what's another two? That said, we're sure Rockstar Games will bless fans soon enough. Let us know your hopes for the new game, in the comments section below.
