And the long awaited GTA 6which will initially be released on consoles in 2025, may not be as revolutionary and surprising as some people expect. This is the opinion of Obi Vermijiformer developer of rock starHe worked in the franchise between 1995 and 2009.
The hype around GTA 6 is on an off-the-charts level. The game’s trailer has crossed 200 million views in just 6 months. The number of rumors and comments about the game is growing every day. The leak of internal game development data itself has heightened the anticipation for the game’s successor. GTA V.
People may be disappointed, Vermeji says.
However, Vermeje takes a perspective that is tied to the classic phrase: the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment. The former Rockstar developer believes that there won't be a really big jump compared to GTA 5. “Some people might feel a little disappointed on the first day.”, The developer made the statement in an interview with Brazilian channel SanlnPlay.
Vermeiji also highlighted a scene from the GTA 6 trailer that he found really impressive:
“The scene that really blew me away was the one on the beach, where everyone seems to be doing something else. Every character has their own animation. I think it's absolutely incredible.
Discussions about GTA 6 also include the question of how the game will run on consoles. Although it has not been officially confirmed yet, many rumors point to the imminent launch of PS5 Prowhich, unless Microsoft launches a new, revamped version of Xbox, will be the console that promises the best hardware option for enjoying the game, along with the advancements in upscaling technology that the PS5 Pro can offer, called PSRR. This technology will specifically help games that promise massive, high-density maps, such as GT 6, achieve a more satisfying design than the base console version offers.
Some analysts, like Rich Leadbetter of Digital Foundry, believe that GTA 6 will not run at 60 frames per second on any console, not even the PS5 Pro.
