It might seem like an odd question to ask, but when you think about much time and effort gamers have put into speculating about GTA 6 and what it will be like, and what it looks like, and how things will break down with it, and how the main characters will be, and so on and so forth, you get the feeling that the community is “more than fine” just speculating on things because they feel the game won’t be out anytime soon. Yet, whether it’s in 2026 or 2027, Rockstar Games will drop the title, and all the speculation will end.
As such, on Reddit, one person put out the question about what comes next after thinking about all that’s happened so far:
“When I think of trailer 1 it was out 3 years ago, it feels like yesterday, waking up to seeing people talk about T1 being leaked and r* publishing it early then the dormant 2024 with absolutely no info and fan theories at the top of the mountain, overanalyzing tshirts, moon phases, car number platss, then finding 27 in almost everything and then so much information from T2 and the site making up for the delay information and another delay newswire in November, even today it feels like this game will never be released but when it finally does all the apeshit this sub went through will be put to complete rest.”
We’re sure that for some gamers, that will be a welcome thing, for the various Reddits and forums that have been dedicated to GTA 6 truly have been “overrun” by people who have done nothing but analyze, overanalyze, speculate, and so on about the game and what may or may not be in it, how it’ll compare to other games, and so on.
Now, to a certain extent, that’s fine, but it has been taken to the limit many times over, including gamers asking the same questions repeatedly and getting the same answers.
So, we’ll ask the question again, “What happens to the community when the game comes out?” Naturally, the discussion will change, and fans will debate and analyze the game from a true “players’ perspective,” talk about “where it ranks” in the franchise, and whether DLC might arrive.
They’ll also talk about the inevitable online mode and what content it will get from Rockstar Games. So, in a way, the “speculation phase” will never end; it’ll just be focused on what COULD happen next for the game they already have.
