The highly anticipated release of GTA 6 is set to create a major shift in the gaming landscape, according to industry analyst Emmanuel Rosier.

With Rockstar Games behind the wheel, the title is expected to break records and set new standards for open-world gaming.

However, Rosier has warned that developers must be prepared for the challenges GTA VI will bring, especially as the gaming world shifts toward live-service titles. The hype surrounding GTA VI is unlike any other, with a teaser alone generating massive excitement.

As Rockstar Games, known for its genre-defining titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, gears up for the 2025 release, the expectations are sky-high. If the game delivers as promised, it could redefine the open-world genre and likely dominate the 2025 Game Awards.

However, Rosier points out that the success of GTA 6 will depend on how Rockstar adapts the Grand Theft Auto formula to fit the evolving gaming landscape, particularly with the rise of live-service models.

The game’s ability to innovate while maintaining its core identity will determine its long-term success and influence future open-world games.

With GTA VI likely to surpass its predecessors in both scope and technology, it’s poised to be a game-changer—unless, of course, it faces any unforeseen delays.
