While the long wait might prove to be frustrating for the Rockstar faithful, GTA VI looks set to include a number of series firsts, including the option to travel between the United States and portions of the southern American continent.
This leak comes by way of The Know, who cite an 'inside source' having informed them that the next GTA will feature this fast travel element, among other, potentially juicier details.
The source didn't let slip whether or not players would be free to travel there of their own volition, but several missions are said to take place in the continent, making this (potentially!) the first globe-trotting Grand Theft Auto.
But where will the action take place in Rockstar's United States? Well, according to the same leak, it could actually be familiar territory...
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
