A couple of years have passed since Grand Theft Auto 5 was released. However, the game remains a huge success and it continues to have a high number of buyers. We are all wondering when Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released.
There are no official announcements yet and Rockstar managed to keep silent so far. However, there are a couple of clues which help us predict a release date. Despite the fact that Rockstar hasn’t revealed anything, it appears that the studio is working hard.
Job listings
If we take a look at the Rockstar Games job site, we can see that the studio is looking for new artists and developers. Rockstar published several job listings, and it appears that they are planning to hire several new people.
The job listings don’t mention Grand Theft Auto, but it quite clear that the game is one of the upcoming projects. Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption are two of the biggest titles launched by the studio. Since Red Dead Redemption 2 was recently launched, which means that Rockstar can now focus on the next Grand Theft Auto project.
Here is what one of the job listings reads: “Develop new and enhance existing graphics technologies (rendering, lighting, shadows, shaders, culling, scene management and others) to help achieve state-of-the-art visuals.”
It appears that Rockstar is looking for people for various positions, from programmers to animation experts. It is good to see that the studio is looking for experienced people, and it means that Rockstar is finally ready to start development for the game. Since Rockstar is already recruiting new people, it shouldn’t take that long until we will finally receive Grand Theft Auto 6. 2020 seems to be a good release date for the game, and we should also receive an announcement before that.
