According to industry insider Jason Schreier, there will be some new features in GTA 6. What Rockstar Games has come up with, you can find out here.
Rockstar Games has changed in the last months and years, according to an article by industry insider Jason Schreier, which will also be felt in GTA 6. We can expect some innovations.
The Transformation of Rockstar Games
As Schreier writes in his article, Rockstar Games has been working hard over the last few years to develop a more modern and progressive company culture. Overall, the working climate is said to have become healthier and more open as a result of the changes, which in turn has led to new ideas and ways of thinking in the development of GTA 6.
According to Schreier, the new GTA should accordingly feel much different than the previous parts.
Rockstar Games has spent the last four years overhauling its culture and working to become a kinder, more progressive company. But what does that actually look like? And what does it mean for the company”s next game, Grand Theft Auto VI? My latest feature: https://t.co/8VlTh63uNm

In his article, Schreier describes the toxic work climate at Rockstar Games before the company turned around. Work weeks of over 100 hours and employees on the verge of a nervous breakdown were apparently the order of the day. The employees sounded the alarm and those in charge realised that they had to change something about their management.
Even if the development of GTA 6 is not on schedule due to the Corona pandemic, according to Schreier, the company wants to stick to its new corporate culture.
Win-win situation?
As a result of the restructuring, GTA 6 will feature a playable female protagonist in a Rockstar Games game for the first time. The character will also be Latina, according to Schreier.
Internally, GTA 6 will be called “Project Americas” and will be set in a fictional version of Miami and its surroundings. The game world is to change over time and even allow new cities to emerge. Already, the playable world is the largest of all GTA parts and is expected to grow further.

It seems that everyone involved is benefiting from the restructuring at Rockstar Games. The developers can work more efficiently and creatively due to the improved working atmosphere, while we as consumers ultimately get a better end product in the form of hopefully the greatest GTA”s ever.
Unlike companies like EA or Activision Blizzard, Rockstar Games seems to have recognised the signs of the times and has taken the necessary steps to not only develop fantastic games, but also to inspire its employees in the process.
