Grand Theft Auto 5
Although most fans are focused on the upcoming relaunch ofGrand Theft Auto 5on the PS5 and Xbox Series X or looking forward toGrand Theft Auto 6’sheavily bruit acquittance appointment of 2025 , there are potential some players who are looking even farther in the lead into the future . IfGTA 6is releasingfour years from now , what does that imply about the practically inevitable date ofGrand Theft Auto 7 ? Thanks to past pattern there are some guesswork which can be made , but the distance of sentence in question likely defecate this prognostication more ambiguous than most .
During the 3D era ofGrand Theft Auto(the generation which includedGTA 3,Vice City , San Andreas , and their assorted twist - offs ) it seemed like developer Rockstar Games was intent on boil out new titles every few years , but as the background of each raw game maturate so did the development time between them . Red Dead Redemption 2 , Rockstar ’s late project and a follow - up to their much - laudedRed Dead Redemption , was in yield for eight years . By all accounts , it will have been over a tenner sinceGrand Theft Auto5 ’s initial release date in 2013whenGTA 6finally launches on what will likely still be the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles in 2025 . The ontogeny and eventual release ofGrand Theft Auto 7will likely be no different , and no shorter .

IfGrand Theft Auto 7requires as much development time asGTA 6appears to need , then participant can expect to be playing it in 2037 at the earlier . Given thatGrand Theft Auto 7and 2037 both finish in the same digit , this would be somewhat of a upright mate , especially if Rockstar settle to release the plot on the seventh , 17th , or 27th of whatever month it chooses . While the theme of " three number sevens " might seem arbitrary , it could in reality make a destiny of sensation when looking at Rockstar’spastGrand Theft Autosettingsand meld that information with the most prevalent rumors aboutGTA 6 ’s location and function .
What GTA 7 Could Look Like After Grand Theft Auto 6
Nearly all of the most agreed - uponGrand Theft Auto 6leaks and rumorspoint to the game having a present - day Vice City context . This would make common sense , as right now Rockstar has take back to both Liberty City and San Andreas / Los Santos fromGTA’s3D era but have yet to take players to a next - gen , high-pitched - definition reading of Vice City . If Vice City truly is the setting ofGTA 6 , then it probably wo n’t be in the running game for a possibleGrand Theft Auto 7location , nor would an quick getting even to Liberty City or Los Santos . There are still a few locations from retiring games Rockstar could pull in out , however , and " 777 " fits one of those to beau ideal - Las Venturas .
Las Venturas , firstappearing inGrand Theft Auto : San Andreasalongside San Fierro and Los Santos , is Rockstar ’s fictitious version of Las Vegas , and it would be the consummate location to base an entireGrand Theft Auto 7game around . It ’s difficult to say what form of new gameplay innovations , graphical upgrade , or control schemes the secret plan could possibly have - fifteen age agoGrand Theft Auto : Vice City Storiescame out on the PSP , and it would still be two more years beforeGrand Theft Auto 4launched - but Las Venturas ( and the real - life story about how Mafia influence help shape Las Vegas over time ) presents an ideal setting forGTA’sblend of irony and caustic remark , and ifGrand Theft Auto 6is going to take playersback to Vice Cityonce again then it too deserves a good turn once more in the spotlight . Grand Theft Auto 7would be the perfect position for this , but players just might have to wait until 2037 first .
