Rockstar plans to announce much anticipated ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’

No video game has driven more fervor from fans and investors than Grand Theft Auto VI, which is expected to be one of the most significant entertainment releases of the decade. Its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto V, has sold more than 185 million copies and is the second-best selling video game of all time, behind Minecraft, which had the advantage of also being playable on phones. — Photo by João Ferrão on Unsplash

Rockstar Games, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc, plans to announce the next highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto game as early as this week, according to people familiar with its plans.

The company plans to then publish a trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI next month to celebrate Rockstar’s 25th anniversary, said the people, who asked to not be identified because they weren’t authorised to speak publicly. A spokesperson for Rockstar didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment sent after business hours.
