While Rockstar takes its time polishing GTA 6 into a neon sunbeam, one hobbyist modder has apparently decided to just make their own Grand Theft Multiverse instead. FV Mods, who evidently runs on a diet of caffeine and pure willpower, has now released a trilogy of giant map add-ons for GTA 5—effectively turning San Andreas […]

Ever since I first started reading forums, the old argument has raged. What’s better: Bleak House’s sharp satire of the British establishment, or finding the jetpack in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas? For my money: obviously the latter, but I guess we can finally put that old chestnut to bed, as is often done with […]

An unlucky former Rockstar animator has made themselves the new temporary focus of Grand Theft Auto fans, after posting a demo reel of their work on various company titles to Vimeo. The two-minute reel includes finished scenes from the likes of GTA5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, alongside various one-off animations with Pixar-style cartoon characters, […]

Over 20 years after Carl “CJ” Johnson first tore through Los Santos dual-wielding uzi submachine guns, two modders are bringing it back to life in a way Rockstar never did. Blue & Blood is an ambitious total conversion mod that reimagines the game from the other side of the law—not as a young gangster clawing […]

The GTA 6 community is famous for its obsessive detective work—from trailer frame counts to map-sizing spreadsheets—but few fan theories show quite this level of craft. Over on GTAForums, user JohnCGaming has written something that can only be described as a scholarly breakdown of co-protagonist Jason’s military background, and it’s quickly become required reading for […]

As I flitted between Peter Parker and Miles Morales boroughs-apart in Spider-Man 2’s New York City, I thought: why haven’t more games copied the character-swapping system from GTA 5? Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 first swung onto PS5 consoles towards the end of 2023, and breached the shores of Steam at the beginning of this year. Grand […]

Hackers and hoverbikes. Ask any GTA Online player to name their biggest gripes roving Los Santos, and I guarantee this pairing gets a name-check. And while Rockstar has spent years attempting to cull cheaters from its chaotic multiplayer spaces (with limited success, it must be said), marshalling griefing sky-bound Pegassi Oppressor Mk II enthusiasts as […]

Weird Weekend Weird Weekend is our regular Saturday column where we celebrate PC gaming oddities: peculiar games, strange bits of trivia, forgotten history. Pop back every weekend to find out what Jeremy, Josh and Rick have become obsessed with this time, whether it’s the canon height of Thief’s Garrett or that time someone in the […]

If you feel like we’ve been here before, then well done for being perceptive because we have. Rockstar announced yesterday that GTA 6 was getting delayed again, and is now scheduled for November 19, which seems like an eternity away. As you can imagine, GTA 6 fans have been reacting really normally to this news. […]

It’s trotted out every time a game is delayed—that apocryphal Shigeru Miyamoto aphorism that a delayed game is eventually good, but a game you rush is bad forever. Miyamoto never said it but, hell, the truth is the truth. As frustrating as it can be to have something you’re looking forward to punted back, we’d […]

GTA 6 delay news usually follows the same beats. The initial reaction is annoyance, and from some quarters, even dismay. Then comes the wave of contemplation regarding what the delay could mean for the industry as a whole (usually bad stuff). In our case, there’s always a moment taken to mourn that every GTA 6 […]

Pity the poor studio who dares release day-and-date with Grand Theft Auto 6. If you thought the countless indies who scrambled out of the way of Silksong’s launch in August was eye-opening, imagine the feeling of doom that would arise from having GTA 6 suddenly land in your release window. For studios planning a November […]

Grand Theft Auto 6, once meant to be available on gaming consoles, well, now, has been pushed further down the road from its already delayed target of May to November 2026. Take-Two announced the news in its earnings call on Thursday, but what it didn’t announce—and hasn’t even hinted at, since confirming the game was […]

Red Dead Redemption’s ending—which, heads up, I am gonna spoil here—is famous for a reason. Gamers are a cosseted bunch, and it was (heck, it continues to be) very rare that an open world didn’t stick you right back in the protagonist’s boots after credits rolled, so you could go mop up whatever side quests […]

Though it may be used to attracting all sorts of fawning whenever it releases a GTA 6 trailer, Rockstar caused an altogether different kind of PR event last week when it fired over 30 workers who belonged to a Discord server related to labour organising. Rockstar denies the workers’ attempts at unionising had anything to […]

Grand Theft Auto developer Rockstar Games was accused of union busting last week after it fired a group of more than 30 employees who belonged to a Discord server related to labor organizing. Now the developer says the employees were fired for violating company policy by sharing confidential information in a public forum. You might […]

Despite the success of Red Dead Redemption 2, Red Dead Online hasn’t quite lived up to its potential since bolting from the bounds of beta in mid-2019. That’s not to say it isn’t a good game. With the right mix of players on any populated server, Rockstar’s multiplayer cowboy crime sim is still up there […]

Grand Theft Auto Online’s Halloween event is here for the year, and ghastly ghouls have taken over the streets of Los Santos yet again with new limited-time rewards. All the Halloween favorites from past years are returning, and there are new playlists and modes with boo-sted rewards in celebration of spooky season. Rumors of UFOs […]

The hype for GTA 6 is undeniable, and with Rockstar keeping its cards gripped firmly against its chest, the community has squeezed everything it possibly can from the incoming crime sim’s trailers to date. So far, that amounts to just two snippets of footage, offering a combined glimpse of less than five minutes into life […]

As we wade into the final stretch of 2025, the GTA 6 release date is slowly (my goodness, so slowly) coming into focus. Close your eyes, shut off your brain and picture yourself kicking back on the white sands of Vice beach this May, sunkissed, fancy free and packing more heat than a chilli cook […]

A gaming TikTok creator claims they flew over to Edinburgh, Scotland to demand answers regarding GTA 6 from random Rockstar North employees outside of the studio’s offices in the Scottish capital. It looks like it was a wasted trip, unsurprisingly. The TikTok video was spotted on X by Gameroll (cheers, VideoGamer), and it does indeed […]

Grand Theft Auto 6 won’t just be the biggest game of 2026: it’s the first series entry since the departure of several Rockstar big-hitters who’ve been involved almost from the start. Things didn’t go so well for longtime GTA producer Leslie Benzies, whose studio Build A Rocket Boy released MindsEye earlier this year. That was […]

It’s a day like any other in Anywhere City, the top-down, retrofuturistic setting of GTA 2. “And remember,” booms the faceless narrator’s voice as I start a new playthrough. “Respect is everything.” In my mind, I know that heading left and then down leads me into the sandbox in earnest, past the church and the […]

Back in August 2023, Rockstar Games acquired the team and tech behind FiveM, a Grand Theft Auto Online mod it had previously tried to shut down. FiveM enables the use of custom cars, maps, and weapons among other content, but crucially also allows for a much bigger player count in online games. Together, these capabilities […]

Excited for Grand Theft Auto 6? Odds are the answer is yes. With Rockstar already calling it the “largest game launch in history” over half a year out from release, I’m pretty sure the only people who aren’t feeling some kind of way about it are uncontacted in the Amazon or… they’re Steven Ogg, who […]
