By Sagar V. Mankar The release of Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) has become the talk of the town among gaming enthusiasts worldwide.
Ever since Rockstar Games unveiled the first trailer, showcasing a meticulously crafted rendition of Florida, fans have been eagerly speculating about the game’s world size and storyline.
How Long Will the GTA 6 Story Be?
Last year, prominent Rockstar Games leaker Legacy Killa HD speculated that the game’s storyline could span approximately 35-40 hours, similar to its predecessor, GTA 5.
While some may view this claim with skepticism, Legacy Killa HD’s track record lends credibility to the speculation.
In 2019, they accurately leaked the title “Project Americas,” a name that has resurfaced in recent leaks related to GTA 6’s development.
The latest release of Rockstar Game’s main storyline length:
- GTA 5 – 30-35 hours +
- Red Dead Redemption 2 – 50 hours+
What if GTA 6 Embraces a Live Service Model?
While Legacy Killa HD speculated that GTA 6’s main story could span around 35-40 hours, there’s growing buzz that Rockstar may embrace a live service model for the highly anticipated title.
Taking inspiration from the enduring success of GTA Online, a live service approach could offer an unprecedented level of longevity and replayability for GTA 6.
Imagine a vast, interconnected virtual world that constantly evolves, introducing new storylines, activities, and gameplay mechanics over time.
This model could keep players engaged for years, but Rockstar would need to strike a careful balance, avoiding criticisms often leveled at live service games like excessive microtransactions and content fragmentation.
Regardless of the approach, GTA 6 is poised to be a game-changer that could shape the future of open-world gaming experiences.
