GTA 6’s backend is an iteration based mostly on earlier video games quite than know-how constructed from scratch. That’s in line with a brand new report.
Last week, we reported on what a former Rockstar Games developer mentioned about GTA 6. Rob Carr, an audio designer who labored at Rockstar Games on video games like Red Dead Redemption, GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2 and L.A. Noire took half in an interview and was requested for his ideas on the brand new recreation. This is fascinating given he’s somebody aware of Rockstar’s growth processes.
He has a concept that Rockstar “probably rebuilt the entirety” of the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE). This is because of how GTA V was a number of generations of consoles in the past. He additionally added that issues we see in smaller GTA V and Red Dead 2 will possible be utilized in an even bigger method.
To learn the way correct he’s, Kotaku’s Zack Zwiezen spoke with GTA 6 builders who’d know info like this. They advised him that the model of RAGE present in GTA VI “builds” off the work completed for GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2. So the sport’s engine has not been rebuilt solely.
Dismissing A Rumour

Additionally, Kotaku’s Zack Zwiezen additionally used this text as a possibility to close down a current viral hearsay. For these unaware a gossip web site claimed that they had heard GTA VI was delayed because of the saving/loading function is damaged and that the sport was made with out it in thoughts. We didn’t cowl it beforehand because of how ridiculous it’s. Anyone with a mind would know that is simply nonsense.
However, giant social media accounts which can be recognized for his or her clickbait and spreading utter garbage regurgitated this hearsay. This led to folks believing it as a result of, for some purpose, no matter these accounts say loads of folks simply belief it. It’s actually bizarre how shops can constantly spew lies and but the readers are glad to just accept it.
Anyway, Zwiezen does know from what he has heard from sources, GTA 6 can have saving and loading as you’d count on. So there’s an finish to that really horrible hearsay.
The author was the one who reported all the way in which again in March 2024 that sources at Rockstar believed the sport may very well be delayed to 2026. The GTA group didn’t take this report nicely with a lot of focused posts aimed on the article and outlet bashing them for merely reporting what builders had mentioned. Now the sport is formally aiming to launch in November 2026 after being moved from Fall 2025 and May 2026.
