Rockstar Games has allayed concerns about this GTA 6 a lot of Grand Theft Auto players have and have been for a while. GTA 5 is the second best-selling game of all time and remains one of the most played and best-selling games through GTA Online, which makes a fortune for Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive. Since then, Rockstar has released Games red death Redeem 2, one of the best single player games of all time. However, where Rockstar Games contributed RDR1 with single player DLC, it is now focused on support Red Dead Online. Meanwhile, GTA 5, unlike previous releases in the franchise, it also did not receive single player DLC.
Without GTA Online, GTA 5 would still be one of the best-selling games of all time, but that’s it GTA Online that makes Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive absurd amounts. Combine this with the lack of single player DLC for both GTA 5 and RDR2, and as a result, countless fans fear that Rockstar Games will abandon single-player content GTA. In other words, fans of the series are concerned GTA 6 will just be a brand new version of GTA Online without single-player content, but it seems these worries are for nothing.
In a new interview with GQ, Tarek Hamad and Scott Butchard from Rockstar Games have confirmed this Grand Theft Auto single-player content isn’t going anywhere. In fact, not only is single-player content not going anywhere, but it sounds like it will make up a bigger portion of it GTA Online moving forward. As you may know, the new Cayo Perico heist added this month can be played all alone. According to the previously mentioned developers, Rockstar Games wants to do more of this GTA Online moving forward.
“I think you can see that with Online and I think we’ll be injecting more of that single-player element into it in the future, ”said Butchard.
As a result, Butchard is asked whether Rockstar Games will continue to tell single player stories within the franchise. In response to this, Butchard offers a definitive “absolute”.
Now the skeptic might say this is more evidence GTA Online and the single player GTA experience will merge and blur in the future, but at this point it seems more likely that Rockstar Games will continue to create both a single-player campaign and an online element and keep them separate. What it actually sounds like will happen is GTA Online will be expanded and adapted to appeal to the many fans only interested in the series’ single player campaigns.
