During GTA publisher Take-Two’s Q3 earnings call,
chairman Strauss Zelnick denied GTA6 by — ironically — talking
about GTA6. To quote: “We’re not going to announce it. We’re
not going to announce when we’re going to announce it. And we’re
not going to announce the strategy about announcing it or about
when we’re going to announce it either, or about the announcement
strategy surrounding the announcement of the strategy. Any other
questions?”.
The video game titled “Shuffle City” scheduled for 2019, is said to
leave the shores of america and feature lagos, Nigeria in western
africa the story revolves around GTA’s favourite character thomas
vercetti who happens to be suffering from Amnesia and wakes up in
a hospital in the city and works with the resources and contacts to
find out how he got there the game is said to be modelled in the
image of the lekki pennisula west nigeria complete with lagos radio
stations and songs from nigerian artistes and shall feature local
thugs as well as radical groups + old friends and foes from “Vice
city”
Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter claimed: “While we
still expect a GTA game in calendar 2019, it is not clear that the
game will be released before the end of Take-Two’s fiscal year
ending October 31, 2019.”
Clearly a quick turnaround analysts promised us for the next GTA
game didn’t happen. Instead a Fall 2019 release for GTA6 is
much more likely. In the end, an extra year of development will
make sure the game will be higher quality and more fun to play.
Also Grand Theft Auto 6 is said to be coming to Wii 2 alongside
Xbox 360 and PS3 in fall 2019 the story here being that GTA6
would be a launch game.
This sounds good
