Exciting new Details Emerge About the Game's setting
GTA 6 is a legendary game making rounds web since immemorial times. Okay, I’m just kidding, but we can say that people started to talk about it right after the buzz for GTA 5 ceased. The game has been in the rumor mill for almost the whole past generation, and we finally got a confirmation about the game’s existence in 2021/2022.
GTA 6 keeps being a target of leaks
The confirmation was followed by one of the biggest leaks in the history of the videogame industry. Hackers invaded Take-Two servers and managed to leak a vast amount of in-development content of GTA 6. Thanks to these leaks, we saw the first consistent proofs of the game’s existence and some interesting details like the new woman protagonist – Luccia. Now, the rumors point to the game’s reveal happening in May. Ahead of the official unveiling, we have new leaks that spill some interesting details about the game’s plot.
Back in the last year, the massive wave of leaks revealed the two protagonists Jason and Lucia. The two are rumored to live a certain “Bonnie & Clyde” adventure in the game. Apart from this, we did not get many details about the game’s plot. The rumors pointed the game to making a comeback to Vice City, which is the game’s vision for Miami. Also, it was rumored to take place in the 1990s and not in the present day like the recent games.
The GTA 6’s era may have been revealed
If we return to GTA Vice City and San Andreas, the 3D games took place in the 1980s and 1990s respectively. However, with the launch of GTA 4 and GTA 5, Rockstar decided to bring the plot to the present day. With that in mind, we have been expecting GTA 6 to also happen in the present. However, that not may be the case, and a new leak falls in line with some old rumors about the game.
A new leak from GTA6posts on Twitter suggests that the game will happen in the late ’90s to the early 00s. The account revealed a variety of new clips from GTA 6 development. It continues the massive leak from last year when the protagonists were revealed to return to Vice City. The latest leaked detail seems to indicate the era of the game. The tipster came across that info by analyzing the price of the cigarettes in the game. Yeah, that may sound a little weird, but we all know how Rockstar pays attention to details.
An unusual discover
The game’s cigarettes are priced at $4.10. When factoring in inflation and pasts costs over the years, this seems to point the game toward the 1990 – 2000 era. We know that this is not a confirmation, but an assumption, but it’s better than nothing. This falls in line with the old rumors, that pointed the game to have a long session in the past. Worth noting, that we won’t discard a part of the campaign in the present day.
GTA 5 set some standards with its very good application of the present day, we don’t know if fans will easily leave them behind. Considering this, we won’t be surprised if GTA 6 starts in the past, but takes a long time gap to reach the present day. That’s a common event in a story of revenge, right?
The game will bring an improved AI
In related news, we also got another leak from Twitter. This leaked video footage claims to demonstrate how cops will reach when using weapons to fight enemies. There is a 51-second video that shows a cop wearing a Vice City uniform shooting a Service Carbine at Lucia from different angles. When attempting to attack the female protagonist, the police officer takes a horizontal path back and forth. Although they are in a standing position, the cop gradually crouches, kneels, and crouches before standing again. Worth noting, that the cops’ AI changes and considers the distance from the enemy.
The cops attempt to hide as they approach Lucia and then return to a normal position once they are safe from her. If that is really from GTA 6, then we are seeing a huge advancement in the game’s AI behavior. That’s an advancement that we need to see in new games.
