00:00 Hello everybody it's David from NationalWorld.com hope everyone is having a fantastic day so far.

00:04 Today we are playing Grand Theft Auto Online.

00:08 Now the reason that I am playing video games during a work shift is that we need to talk about GTA 6.

00:15 Rumours have been flying around, they've been circulating all over social media and across the internet in general

00:22 but we haven't really gone into a deep dive.

00:24 We're going to start here in the casino, we just need to go and spin the wheel and see what prize we get.

00:30 Come on, big money. What are we going to get?

00:33 Wouldn't mind the car, wouldn't mind 50 grand, wouldn't mind 20 grand.

00:37 And we didn't get any of those so that's great.

00:39 So yes, going back to GTA 6, let's talk about the single player first and foremost.

00:46 So for single player we are expecting the game to be set in Vice City.

00:51 Revisiting a location therefore that we have been before in previous GTA titles.

00:56 GTA 5 is set in Los Santos, that's the gameplay you're seeing right now.

01:01 That's the city that we're in.

01:03 It's loosely based in Los Angeles and Vice City is based off Miami.

01:08 So two very different locations.

01:10 There were rumours that GTA 6 was potentially going to be set in a makeshift version of London.

01:18 That unfortunately does not seem to be the case.

01:21 [GTA 6 THEME]

01:27 So the leading rumour about GTA 6 is that we're going to have a female protagonist.

01:34 Now there's also been female characters in GTA stories before

01:38 but we've never had a playable character so that's a nice addition.

01:42 So on September 18th, this was last year,

01:46 it looked like there was some gameplay that was actually leaked to the internet.

01:51 Obviously we can't play it for you here unfortunately

01:53 but more than 90 videos were shared and Rockstar actually had to step in

02:00 to negotiate a deal with the person who had hacked their systems.

02:04 So it sounds like that gameplay was legit and what we got out of it was a sneaky glimpse

02:10 at what appears to be Vice City.

02:12 Let's get these goods to the drop-off.

02:14 We can make half a million out of this.

02:16 Get that bread up.

02:17 Loads of gameplay leaked.

02:19 Obviously the graphics weren't good.

02:20 The game is still in very very early development.

02:23 Obviously a fair amount of time has passed since last year

02:27 but even still the game is in its very very early stages.

02:31 Still in its infancy but we're expecting a massive graphics update.

02:36 I'm currently playing on the PS4 version of the game on my PS5.

02:39 That's where my account is, that's where my friends play and that's where we will stay.

02:43 But there is a significant graphical enhancement with the expanded and enhanced version

02:48 that came with the next gen consoles.

02:50 We're expecting another big leap forward when GTA 6 comes out graphically.

02:54 This will be considered advanced when the game was released

02:56 especially for an open world such as this.

02:59 And even since GTA 5 came out we've had the likes of Red Dead Redemption 2

03:03 where the graphics and the lighting have been nothing short of spectacular.

03:07 You see on the mini-map in the bottom left we've got a couple of guys

03:09 wanting to take us out.

03:11 They want our goods.

03:13 They're on motorbikes.

03:14 That's unfortunate.

03:15 Tell you what pals, we'll see you later.

03:19 Yeah nice bike bro.

03:23 Still here.

03:26 And not anymore.

03:30 Cool.

03:31 Right where were we?

03:33 Yes the gameplay leak.

03:34 We're expecting a big graphical overhaul.

03:36 We're also expecting a much bigger map than we had in GTA 5.

03:39 Now GTA 5 when this game came out the map was considered absolutely massive

03:44 especially with the vehicles that were in the game.

03:46 But as time's gone on the map has felt significantly smaller.

03:50 We've seen a lot of parts of the map get reused and rehashed

03:54 for different DLCs and different expansions

03:56 especially when it comes to the online section of the game.

04:00 More than that the vehicles are so much quicker now.

04:04 I mean you saw how fast the Krieger that we were driving earlier was going.

04:08 That was I mean released only a couple of years ago that car.

04:12 And it tops the supercar category.

04:15 It's one of the fastest cars in the game.

04:17 We've also got things like the oppressor that just have made

04:21 crossing the map so much easier and so much shorter as well.

04:25 So we're expecting a bigger map in GTA 6 to compensate.

04:29 Take this part of the map which we've been at here.

04:32 Straight to a tree.

04:34 Excellent work.

04:36 Right we're back on the road again.

04:37 So what else do we know about GTA 6?

04:40 Well we're expecting there to be some sort of cross play.

04:43 Now cross play is where you can have gamers from multiple different platforms

04:47 actually playing with and against each other.

04:50 So we have games such as Fortnite, Call of Duty is another one

04:54 where it doesn't matter what platform you're playing on

04:56 whether you're playing on a PlayStation, Xbox or PC

04:59 you can connect with anyone from any other platform

05:02 play with them and play together.

05:04 Play with them and play against them.

05:06 Now for the most part this seems like a good idea

05:09 but one issue that GTA 5 in particular has had is packers on PC.

05:14 I mean you'll see any lobby.

05:16 I mean we are playing in an invite only lobby

05:19 which means that people can't actually join our session unless we ask them to.

05:24 On PC that makes bugger all difference.

05:26 You will still have people joining sessions

05:28 they'll be putting traffic cones on your heads and just creating carnage.

05:32 There'll be constant explosions, orbital cannons going off

05:36 perpetually right across the map.

05:38 It will freeze your PC, it will crash your console.

05:41 And so that's a real concern when it comes to GTA 6

05:44 especially when it comes to cross play

05:46 is how secure is it going to be against hackers.

05:49 And the final thing we need to talk about is a potential release date.

05:53 When will the game actually be coming out?

05:55 Now as I said the support for GTA 5 and GTA Online has dwindled over the last couple of years

06:02 and that's because Rockstar and Take-Two are focusing on the new title.

06:06 Now there is some sort of indication of when they could do it.

06:10 Oh sorry about that lads.

06:15 There's some indication of when it could come out.

06:18 Normally games like this triple-a titles you'd want to release them

06:23 around about the end of the year.

06:26 That's so you can scoop up the Christmas market

06:27 everyone puts it on the Christmas lists

06:29 everyone gets it for Christmas

06:30 your player base explodes

06:31 you can put more microtransactions

06:32 make a shed load of money

06:34 Bob's your uncle.

06:35 But I wouldn't put it past Rockstar to also try a summer release.

06:40 Something they have done in the past and it has been fairly successful for them.

06:45 Then the big question is what year is it going to come out?

06:47 Well we know that it's going to be coming onto these next-gen consoles

06:50 so it's going to be within the lifetime of the PS5 and the Xbox Series X.

06:54 Now I personally don't think it's going to be in 2024.

06:59 Watch that age like absolute milk and Rockstar announce it next year.

07:02 But 2025 could be the year that we receive the new title.

07:09 Whoa whoa whoa okay that's lots of bad guys.

07:12 Just uh...

07:14 Yeah you guys um you have to go sorry.

07:22 How do I run this corner?

07:28 Yeah.

07:28 Give the goods the drop off and that'll be a cool half a million in the bank.
