Fuslie reveals biggest problem streamers have getting into GTA RP Twitch : FuslieWhile celebrating her one-year anniversary on NoPixel’s GTA RP server, Twitch star Leslie ‘Fuslie’ Fu reflected on what makes getting into GTA RP difficult. The GTA Online roleplay server NoPixel has managed to bring in tons of content creators and streamers to join its platform in the last year. Whether it’s the likes of Twitch streamer and criminal mastermind xQc, or content creator Sykkuno pulling off heists, the server neck deep in creativeness and a bonafide content creating machine. Fuslie was one of the earliest streamers to join NoPixel, and has garnered plenty of roleplay experience under her belt. This has all made her realize why others might not want to join in. Fuslie explains how roleplaying is streamers’ biggest issue In a March 26 stream where she celebrated her one-year anniversary on NoPixel, Fuslie reminisced over her experiences in the RP server and came to a conclusion on why streamers might not want to join in. “I think it’s the idea of roleplaying that’s very uncomfortable for a lot of people?” she explained. “[It] can be seen as cringy or weird ‘oh you’re roleplaying a whole different person’ it’s more effort.’” “I think it’s always easier to just sit back and play a game like League of Legends or Valorant or something, right?” Fuslie added. “You’re just playing the game. Whereas something like roleplaying takes a lot more effort – it’s out of everyone’s comfort zone.” No matter how big the NoPixel server gets, it was created first and foremost with roleplay in mind. This means that sooner or later if they’re looking to partake in the fun, streamers will have to begin playing as someone else.

Frustrating GTA Online bug is changing Lucky Wheel casino rewards – Dexerto
Frustrating GTA Online bug is changing Lucky Wheel casino rewards Rockstar GamesGTA Online players have been left frustrated by a problem with the daily lucky spin wheel as it has begun paying out the wrong rewards – seemingly no matter what prize they were supposed to win. Since the Diamond Casino and Resort, finally, opened in GTA Online back in July of 2019, GTA fans have been flooding through the doors to earn cash, clean out the vault and have some good times with their fellow players. For the most loyal of GTA Online players, they are rewarded with a daily spin on the lucky wheel that sits in the middle of the Casino floor. The login reward features everything from new clothing to exclusive vehicles – meaning it is very much worth jumping on every day and taking a spin. Though, there seems to be an issue with it at the moment. Reddit user The_Salted_Slug pointed the issue out, noting that the GTA Online reward you’re meant to win from the wheel, might not be the prize you ultimately end up with. In the Redditor’s video showcasing the problem, they managed to land on the highly sought after podium car spot – which is currently a unique Sultan Classic – but instead of being told that they’d be getting the keys to the car, they ended up with 10,000 casino chips. While that might be enough for some players to launch their controller or smash a keyboard, what’s perhaps more annoying is that the 10,000 chips are nowhere near the car spot on the wheel. The game has spat out a completely random reward. It’s not even like The_Salted_Slug had only just landed on the car spot by the skin of their teeth either – the arrow on the wheel is clearly slap bang in the middle of the vehicle reward slot. Of course, it’s not the first time that a bug like this has reared its head – players reported problems when the casino first opened, but they had gone away after Rockstar fixed a few things. Whether or not they will fix this anytime soon, though, remains to be seen.

Full GTA 6 map reportedly leaked and it’s massive – Dexerto
Full GTA 6 map reportedly leaked and it’s massive RockstarIt’s been seven years since the release of Grand Theft Auto 5 and while Rockstar is yet to confirm the next entry in the series, a new map has leaked out and it’s supposedly our most detailed look at GTA 6 to date. [jwplayer wZHxbKhS] The gaming community has long been waiting with bated breath for any scrap of GTA 6 news. While the developers love to tease, and fan theories are often running wild, nothing has been made official thus far. We know that Rockstar is taking its time with the next mainline release. Coming off the back of 2018’s Red Dead follow up, the next GTA could still be a few years off. However, that hasn’t stopped new insights from slipping through the cracks. A handful of earlier leaks have hinted at the location for GTA 6. Now, we may have been given our very first look at the full map for the next-gen title. Funnily enough, this leak was first shared around in 2018. A random Twitter account with just a single post has been left inactive since these images were shared online. The original tweet was disregarded for the most part, there was no way to verify these leaks, after all. However, this version of the GTA 6 map has just been thrown back into the spotlight with tons of new details. A new image of an island popped up on October 9. This newly detailed look just so happens to line up perfectly with part of the original leak from 2018. Every key detail from a lake in the middle to its general size and shape have all held true. According to the original post that now seems to be on point, this island is just one section of a considerably bigger map. GTA 6 is rumored to feature an expanded version of Vice City along with a ton of new areas to explore. Miami’s topography lines up almost perfectly with the original leak as well. Indicating that a faithful, yet satirical, reimagining of the state is likely in the works, similar to GTA 5’s rip on Los Angeles with Los Santos. Obviously, this information should be taken with a grain of salt for the time being; we’re likely still a few years away from GTA 6, so everything could change. This wouldn’t be the first open-world game from Rockstar to have its final map leak early though. The exact same happened with Red Dead Redemption 2 ahead of its release. With no official word from the developers, there’s no use holding your breath for any kind of confirmation in the near future. Rockstar often forgoes major gaming industry events in order to reveal and promote their titles on their own time. It’s likely GTA 6 follows suit and we won’t hear about it until they’re truly ready. Keep your eyes peeled, however. If a full island has now leaked early, other sections of the map could be on the way too.

Fresh GTA 6 ‘leaks’ have fans convinced but are they real? – Dexerto
Fresh GTA 6 ‘leaks’ have fans convinced but are they real? Rockstar GamesA wave of new GTA 6 ‘leaks’ have hit the internet, however, you shouldn’t get excited by them as they’re pretty easily debunked. While Rockstar Games haven’t yet officially announced a GTA 6 release date, that hasn’t stopped fans from getting excited about the next installment of the iconic franchise. That hype was only intensified back in September when, out of the blue, around 70 videos of gameplay tests for Grand Theft Auto 6 were leaked online. Rockstar and their publishers Take-Two noted that the team had been affected by the leaks, but they wouldn’t alter their plans for release. Many of these videos have been scrubbed off the internet as DMCA takedowns have routinely been issued. However, they’ve also led to a crop of new ‘leaks’ that have got players intrigued. New GTA 6 ‘leaks’ have spread but they’re not real There are a handful of these ‘leaks’ doing the rounds online, with many of them claiming to show new parts of the game. However, they’re just not real. One of the supposed ‘leaks’ shows the female character walking down a populated street in a Downtown district. The text on-screen is in Vice City style, however, the whole thing is debunked when you look closer at one of the buses on her right-hand side. The bus says it is going to the San Francisco Financial District which, one, is a real place so wouldn’t be in GTA, and, two, is some 3,000 miles away from Florida on a completely opposite coast. Another, which has been bundled into the same clip, looks like a pretty routine animation test. The text onscreen matches up with the previous leaks, apart from the box in the top right-hand corner. That didn’t appear in the actual leaks and is just placed there to try and be convincing. As YouTuber MrBossFTW points out, these newer clips are simply just concepts cooked up by players based on the leaks we’ve already seen. Each of them has a little something that debunks them, you just have to keep an eye out and don’t get fooled by them – even if the hype for GTA 6 is at a fever pitch.

Franklin actor sparks GTA 6 speculation with cryptic new character model reveal – Dexerto
Franklin actor sparks GTA 6 speculation with cryptic new character model reveal Rockstar Games/gta5-modsGTA 5 voice actor Shawn Fonteno sparked some major speculation for the next installment in the popular Rockstar franchise after posting a new Franklin character model. Shawn Fonteno is best known for his role of Franklin Clinton in GTA 5 and made his return to the game in GTA Online’s Contract DLC that took place many years after the events of the story campaign. Now, he seems to be hinting that something is on the way. Early in February, Fonteno uploaded a mysterious incomplete character model of a young Franklin to his Instagram account with the caption “almost finished.” As expected, this has resulted in quite a lot of speculation from fans, especially from those desperate for Rockstar to finally announce GTA 6 once and for all. GTA actor teases new Franklin content After posting the in-progress character model of a shirtless, young Franklin, fans began wondering what it could be for. A few of the comments suggested that GTA 6 could see Franklin return while others remarked how it could have something to do with new content in Expanded and Enhanced on next-gen consoles. “Most likely a DLC hopefully story DLC,” one user commented. “He looks a bit thinner, and overall younger (could be because of the lack of hair). Would be dope if this was a DLC of Franklin when he was younger doing missions with Lamar.” View this post on Instagram Others reluctantly agreed that Fonteno could be teasing an NFT project, much to the chagrin of anyone expecting big official Rockstar news. Whatever it ends up being, if the actor’s caption is to be believed, we won’t have long to wait until we find out what he’s been up to. Until then, the hope for GTA 6 news carries on, especially considering some big discoveries in GTA Trilogy hinting at a return to Vice City for the next installment in the popular series.

Franklin actor explains why Rockstar is taking longer to release GTA 6 – Dexerto
Franklin actor explains why Rockstar is taking longer to release GTA 6 Rockstar GamesShawn Fonteno, the voice actor behind Franklin from Grand Theft Auto V, has explained why fans need to lay off Rockstar Games about GTA 6. Even though Rockstar’s focus appears to be solely on Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online, fans are understandably desperate to get some news about GTA 6. While the devs haven’t even confirmed if it’s in development yet, some insiders have reported that the GTA 6 is anywhere between early development and around 70% completed – though, we do have the first character confirmed as being called ‘The Mexican’. With each new social post from Rockstar being bombarded with requests to drop news about GTA 6, Shawn Fonteno, the voice actor behind Franklin from Grand Theft Auto V, has explained why fans need to be more patient than ever. Franklin addresses GTA 6 hype “Don’t knock Rockstar down man. Don’t be on ‘em,” the voice actor said on one of his Instagram lives. “Talking about ‘Y’all milking GTA 5’ and ‘when is six gonna come out?’ Y’all gotta understand, it’s a process to put these games out man.” Fonteno added that, given the ongoing global health situation, production will have slowed down any way. “They just can’t throw anything out. Y’all wouldn’t accept it if they threw GTA 6 out right now and it just had bulls**t on there,” he added. “Then, y’all wouldn’t support Rockstar and the GTA brand. “It’s time man. I keep telling you, if you all look at the interviews of us, it took us like four/four-and-a-half years to film and complete GTA 5. So, you gotta understand and know.” Check out the clip below shared by @GTAVInewz on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GTAVInewz/status/1305095894250016768 After Vice City was released in 2002, Rockstar started putting decent breaks between releases – with GTA IV being released four years after San Andreas and then GTA V coming five years after IV. Only the iconic developers know just when GTA 6 will be ready for release, so it’s just an ongoing game of wait and see between Rockstar and their fans.

Former Rockstar employee denies “absurd” claims GTA 6 will be more inclusive – Dexerto
Former Rockstar employee denies “absurd” claims GTA 6 will be more inclusive Rockstar GamesA former Rockstar Games employee doesn’t agree with reports claiming that GTA 6 will be more inclusive and less offensive. The Grand Theft Auto series has long been an M-rated paradise of obscene violence and debauchery, but some claims have suggested this wouldn’t exactly be the case with GTA 6. In late July, Bloomberg published a report stating that GTA 6 will include two playable protagonists with one being a Latina female. The report also claimed that the developers are “being cautious not to ‘punch down’ by making jokes about marginalized groups” and the company’s culture has been completely overhauled. However, Aaron Stewart-Ahn, who worked on Grand Theft Auto in the past, doesn’t believe that the sixth installment in the series will be any different from its predecessors. Ex Rockstar employee calls GTA 6 inclusivity reports “cynical” Taking to Twitter after the report, Stewart-Ahn shut down claims that GTA 6 would be more inclusive. “As someone who quit working at Rockstar Games after a few months, the report of them making a more inclusive Grand Theft Auto is so absurd & cynical,” he said. “Anyway the Yakuza series is better, way funnier, more humane, and has at least tried to be astonishingly pro-sex worker & LGBTQ.” Although Stewart-Ahn dismissed the rumors, it’s worth noting that according to IMDB he worked with Rockstar back in 2009 as a voice actor for The Ballad of Gay Tony and Episodes from Liberty City. He is also known for writing episode 1 of The Witcher: Blood Origin and directing the music video for ‘I Will Possess Your Heart’ by Death Cab for Cutie. While the former employee doesn’t believe GTA 6 will be different from its previous incarnations, Rockstar Games co-founder Jamie King believes the opposite, saying the next GTA will be less “edgy.” In any case, with Rockstar hard at work on the sixth entry in the popular franchise, hopefully we can get our first glimpse at the game in the months ahead and decide for ourselves if GTA has changed or not.

Former Rockstar dev explains why GTA 6 isn’t coming to PC at launch – Dexerto
Former Rockstar dev explains why GTA 6 isn’t coming to PC at launch Rockstar GamesA former game developer for Rockstar has broken down why the company often prioritises console release ahead of PC and why the latter is often given a port release years or months down the track. Developer Rockstar Games took over the internet last week when they finally unveiled the first official trailer for GTA 6. The upcoming game, which has been in development for over a decade, has already broken records for how many viewers the new trailer garnered on YouTube. After the trailer dropped, it was also confirmed that the game will be released on the Xbox Series S/X and the PlayStation 5. While this was no surprise for fans who saw the amazing footage from the trailer, many have been left wondering when and if the game will be ported over to PC. Typically, Rockstar has always released their games on console first, with PC then added later on after the initial launch. Game developer Mike York, who previously worked on GTA 5, broke down why Rockstar and other game devs focus on the console versions of games before then shifting over to the PC port after the initial launch of the game. On his YouTube channel York Reacts, he revealed that, oftentimes, the PlayStation version of the game is what is focused on first, before then porting over to Xbox and then, months or years later, PC. “One of the main reasons why a PC port will take so long to come out after the game launches is because the developers want to make it as best as possible. They have to work out all these little bugs that they haven’t been working on.” York then added that “a PC port always comes later because they wanna prioritize what sells first”, before explaining why this is the case. “Most of the time, especially in the past, PlayStation was the big seller…so what the developer would do is focus all their energy on making sure the PlayStation port and the PlayStation game works really well. When I was working on GTA 5 for instance, we would concentrate on the PS3 and the Xbox at the time but we were mainly pushing the PS3 to the limits.” Time will tell when Rockstar plans to roll out GTA 6 on PC. However, given their history of doing so, there is a strong chance it will eventually drop. For all the latest GTA news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto’s full coverage here.

Former Rockstar dev claims GTA 6 would be better with a smaller map – Dexerto
Former Rockstar dev claims GTA 6 would be better with a smaller map SteamA former Rockstar dev speaks on their hope for GTA 6, stating they’d love to see a smaller map in the long-anticipated title. Grand Theft Auto 6 is one of the most anticipated games of all time, with fans hungry for any bit of information they can get. It’s for good reason too, as GTA V raised the bar for gaming, and Rockstar has been at work for ten years on the next entry. Since GTA V was released, the gaming industry has seen a massive shift in open-world design philosophy, as studios have become enthralled in creating wildly large worlds. Plenty of titles have been released with large playable environments, although the execution has left much to be desired. The debate around the size of GTA 6’s map rages on, this time with a former Rockstar developer claiming the game could benefit from a smaller map, one that focuses on density over sheer size. Former Rockstar dev thinks GTA 6 should be smaller but denser Tony Gowland is a former Rockstar developer, who previously worked on GTA: Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories, Chinatown Wars, and Red Dead Redemption. In an interview with PCGamesN, he shared his thoughts on what he’d love to see. ““In terms of what I’m hoping for, I personally would like it to bring in a little bit in terms of size of the world,” Gowland said on GTA 6. Gowland went on to elaborate, “I think a smaller but more densely packed location would maybe bring back some of that memorable navigation that I loved from the original.” Tony Gowland’s words echo an interesting point, as games like Starfield have provided players with massive playable spaces. As incredible as it is to explore each new locale, the luster wore off once players found similar spaces. Games with smaller playable spaces, such as the Yakuza series, match the sentiment Gowland is trying to convey. Creating a small yet dense space that players can become familiar with creates a very different open world, one that has room to evolve and shift noticeably as the player progresses. Conversely, Rockstar has been known to create engaging worlds no matter their size. Red Dead Redemption 2 is the perfect example, as players enjoyed exploring its world and getting immersed in nature and Rockstar’s rendition of the wild west. The cowboy classic’s subreddit provided this observation recently, as fans lauded what Rockstar created. Rockstar faces an interesting road ahead of them with GTA 6, as it’ll show what the studio’s learned in the past ten years. That said, it isn’t yet clear when we’ll get more news on it considering how much buzz there’s been around supposed reveal dates that have long since passed.

Former Rockstar dev confirms GTA 3 multiplayer was in development – Dexerto
Former Rockstar dev confirms GTA 3 multiplayer was in development RockstarGrand Theft Auto 3 was a real watershed moment for the now-beloved series. It was the first to be rendered in full 3D and showed the potential of the chaotic world Rockstar had created. The one thing it didn’t have was multiplayer, but one former dev has now confirmed that it should have done. In a written response to a question on Twitter/X, Obbe Vermeij confirmed that he had coded multiplayer for GTA 3. Unfortunately, though basic gameplay was functional, the workload was too high, and that part of the project was canceled. Vermeij originally joined Rockstar North as a coder in 1995, when the company was known as DMA Design. He went on to become Technical Director and was credited on every game from GTA 3, all the way up to GTA IV and Chinatown Wars. “I coded multiplayer for GTA 3. Since GTA 1 & 2 had MP, we thought GTA 3 should have it as well. The basic gameplay was working, but there was too much to be done, and we canceled it,” he said. GTA San Andreas suffered a similar fate, with Vermeij stating that the game came too late into the console cycle to make multiplayer practical. Instead, players got a more manageable co-op mode before GTA IV reintroduced full-blown multiplayer. Vermeij also took time to praise the extensive modding scene surrounding the older GTA games, including those that have made multiplayer in San Andreas a reality. When asked about SA: MP and Multi Theft Auto, specifically, he had this to say: “Pretty impressive. Great to see the communities are still so active.” The news that GTA 3 nearly had multiplayer will open the game up to questions of what might have been. It is undoubtedly a beloved title in its own right, but the addition of multiplayer would have elevated the game significantly.

Former jewelry thief explains what GTA V’s heists got right and wrong – Dexerto
Former jewelry thief explains what GTA V’s heists got right and wrong Rockstar GamesFormer jewel thief and youth crime prevention advocate Larry Lawton reviewed Grand Theft Auto V’s heist missions, and explained what the developers got right and wrong about them. Rockstar originally released Grand Theft Auto V on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2013, and the iconic action-adventure has gone on to become one of the highest grossing games of all time. However, a former jewelry thief reviewed the title’s popular heist missions, and explained how Michael and Franklin would have been busted before they even made it out the door. Former thief explains what GTA V got wrong The former thief opened up the video stating the review was just to give viewers a real-world take on things. “I understand it’s a game, but I am to this day considered the biggest jewel robber in the United States,” he said. “And I’m gonna tell you how I would have done it. And what the game did a little off.” Lawton explained that Michael casing inside the store was sloppy. “As he’s casing this place, he’s taking pictures. Very conspicuous. You don’t think they would be looking at him? Any real criminal would have been pinned out in a minute.” Read More: Rockstar stuntman sparks GTA 6 rumors – He also called it a “big mistake” when the protagonist talked to the employee at the jewelry counter and only focused on the display case. “He doesn’t even ask if there is loose diamonds. That’s where the money is in. Not the stuff in the display case!” Another issue the expert took with the game is how they cased the roof of the building. “You could find all this information literally in the city ordinance, or the city codes. And he doesn’t have any gloves on. He runs up this ladder and his fingerprints the whole way up!” However, he did praise the game for having a plan to get out. “The first thing you got to know is where the stones are, can you get out of that store, and what you get away with, which they have planned which I liked.” “It’s a pretty good game. Lots of fun. I think they could have made the game better, more realistic,” he stated, but explained that the Rockstar game failed when it came to the actual casing section, and the planning stages of the robbery. The 41 minute review goes into greater depth as well as he tackles both heist plans. (Timestamp 1:10 for mobile users.) Despite having issues with the technical aspects of the game, Lawton seemed to enjoy his time with Grand Theft Auto 5, and even stated it brought back memories for him. Read More: Rockstar’s finances may hold GTA 6 hint – The game continues to be a sales juggernaut, with its longevity largely fueled by GTA Online, and it’s considered to be one of the highest grossing titles of all time.

Former GTA RP NoPixel server dev DW is suing owner Koil for considerable sum – Dexerto
Former GTA RP NoPixel server dev DW is suing owner Koil for considerable sum Rockstar / NoPixelA former developer on GTA RP’s most popular server, NoPixel, DW is suing the platform’s founder, Koil over ownership disputes following an abrupt termination of their partnership. Over the past few years, many GTA role-playing servers have come and gone. Though NoPixel continues to stand tall as the game’s most popular place to become a new character and live through their virtual eyes. At the peak of its popularity, hundreds of thousands would be watching along daily as social media superstars all jumped into the fan-favorite server with swarms of players all wanting to gain access too. Throughout its reign atop the RP charts, NoPixel has racked up millions in revenue, owing to its immense popularity. It’s no small operation and as a result, various developers have been recruited to help improve the server and keep it all afloat. Among the hires made by its founder Koil, was Danny Tracey, best known to the community as DW. Though following a fruitful partnership, one which saw DW working on integral features and components both in plain view and under the hood, the software developer is now taking his former business partner to court. As revealed in early May, through a lawsuit filed in the US District Court of California on April 10, NoPixel is being sued by DW. Over the course of nearly three years, from early 2020 to the end of 2022, the lawsuit outlines DW’s contributions to the NoPixel server. While working on a range of key features to keep the popular server thriving at its peak, DW also allegedly developed perhaps the most important aspect of all: its funding pipeline. “Mr. Tracey designed and created the entire payment processing system utilized by the NoPixel server, which has facilitated the processing of millions of dollars in payments,” the lawsuit reads. However, despite the server’s popularity and a seemingly thriving business model, it apparently wasn’t all going to plan behind the scenes. Personal conflicts bubbled up and Koil, NoPixel’s founder, allegedly terminated DW’s contract, though failing to communicate as much at the time. “Mr. Tracey received no notice of his termination whatsoever,” the legal document claims. In light of this, DW logged back into the NoPixel server “as he normally would – completely unaware that such action could technically constitute unauthorized access to the NoPixel server.” It was due to this login, after having been terminated, that a statement was issued to all role players in December 2022. “Today NoPixel experienced unauthorized access to users private information from a former NoPixel employee. The employee had already been terminated at the time of the unauthorized access yet was able to access and export information before user permissions could fully be removed.” As a result of this miscommunicated termination, the subsequent server login from DW, along with a more convoluted dispute over ownership stakes due to the nature of DW’s working agreement under business management company TOVE, this lawsuit has been filed. DW is seeking not only a minimum sum of $150,000, but also for a great deal more due to the aforementioned agreement. As part of DW’s deal, TOVE was seemingly promised “50% of revenue” from NoPixel during the time of the deal. The final fee is “to be determined at trial,” though an exact date for the initial hearing is yet to be publicized.

Forgotten GTA Online trick is perfect way to deal with “aimbot” enemies – Dexerto
Forgotten GTA Online trick is perfect way to deal with “aimbot” enemies Rockstar GamesHad enough of enemies in GTA Online just gunning you down for fun? Well, one player has got a helpful tip that counters the “aimbot” NPCs of Los Santos. It’s been almost a full decade since Rockstar Games unleashed GTA Online onto the gaming world, and the multiplayer side of GTA 5 is still going strong to this day as it has spanned multiple generations of consoles. Despite being almost 10 years old, there are still plenty of secrets and tricks that players have only uncovered recently. Some have found secrets centered around the water in-game, while others have got clothing combinations that actually help you in different ways. With a handful of new jobs being opened up to fans through the recent Los Santos Drug Wars update, you’ve got players trying to dig into their bags and find new tips and tricks as well. Under the radar GTA Online trick makes solo gunfights a breeze Well, this one might not be the newest tip for some veteran GTA Online players, but it’s definitely one that has gone under the radar. According to Redditor EulerId, if you have the ability to call Merryweather and request their helicopter back-up, it’s a great way to deal with the “aimbot” NPCs that pop up as enemies on some missions. It only costs $5,000 in-game and some players actively avoid it as it’s a Merryweather feature, but as the Redditor shows, it’s pretty solid when you need some covering fire in tight areas and pretty perfect if you’re grinding jobs all by yourself as a solo player. “Idk why I’ve never thought of this,” commented one player who might just want to use it in future. “Thanks for reminding me this existed, could make for some cool-looking fights as a solo player,” added another. “No matter how people view it, that’s the NPC support fighting beside you which some players have been looking for, and it’s cheap indeed.” As some others noted, it’s not exactly ideal if you have NPC teammates because they will get targeted by the air support, but if you’re running solo, it never hurts to have a bird in the air.

Former GTA 6 dev confirms shocking details about the game’s development – Dexerto
Former GTA 6 dev confirms shocking details about the game’s development Rockstar GamesA former Rockstar Games employee has revealed startling details about GTA 6’s development that seem to confirm some previous reports. Grand Theft Auto 6 is shaping up to be one of the biggest games of all time, and despite Rockstar only relatively recently confirming its development, the project has been a long time coming. Prior to gameplay leaks confirming the series would return to Vice City, along with an assortment of other upgrades from GTA V, reports indicated that development began almost ten years ago before being “rebooted.” Now, an ex-GTA 6 dev has provided some additional insight into how the game progressed in the most unlikely of places: LinkedIn. Rockstar dev seemingly confirms GTA 6 reboot GTA fans have been relentless in their pursuit of GTA 6 info, combing through every detail of every site for clues, and seem to have found a big one on LinkedIn. On the profile of Jon Young, a former Rockstar Games employee, the dev states that he worked on GTA VI from 2015-2018 as a Lead Video Editor. This seems to confirm that the game was in its early stages just two years after GTA 5 came out. Previously, a report by insider Tez2, claimed GTA 6 had been “rebooted.” “VI was in full development prior to RDR2’s release, but it was rebooted around the time RDR2 released. Rockstar submitted a patent and one of its inventors didn’t join Rockstar Games until 2019,” he said. “While the crunch concerns were surely part of the reasons behind the ‘reboot,’ Rockstar probably required new Animation tech, as well.” Luckily, it does seem like fans could finally get a long-awaited GTA 6 reveal later this year – and even a possible trailer. Recent rumors and financial forecasts from Rockstar have suggested that the game could come out in 2024 or 2025, so we might not have much longer until there is an official announcement.

Florida Joker threatens to break hacker behind GTA 6 leaks out of prison – Dexerto
Florida Joker threatens to break hacker behind GTA 6 leaks out of prison The Florida Joker claims he wants to spring the hacker responsible for the GTA 6 leaks from the psychiatric ward where he’s confined so they can ‘team up’. Ever since the leak of the GTA 6 trailer featuring a character he claims is a parody of his likeness, the Florida Joker has been demanding Rockstar offer him financial compensation for its use. Now the IRL Joker has posted a video threatening to team up with the hacker behind the GTA 6 leaks. “Keep playing with me, I’ll break that kid out the psych ward right now we gonna get on the laptop and we gonna hack your system again.” The kid he’s referring to is the hacker responsible for 2022’s GTA 6 leaks. He was placed in a psychiatric facility after conviction. The new video comes after a string of several “final warnings” issued to Rockstar over their use of his likeness. In previous videos, he’d been demanding $5 million USD in compensation. But that number jumped to $10 million in this latest video. Fans in the GTA subreddit saw the comedy value in it all at least. “I still think it’s funny that he wants to talk with a video game… and not the people who are making it…” Said one user, referencing the Florida Joker’s penchant for asking to “Talk with GTA” instead of addressing the developers, Rockstar. “This was actually the reminder to the 8th final warning,” one Reddit user pointed out in response to the video. Although the Florida Joker might have extended his deadline, Rockstar doesn’t seem to be taking his demands seriously.

Florida Joker finally stops suing Rockstar over GTA 6 and instead wants $50K and a job – Dexerto
Florida Joker finally stops suing Rockstar over GTA 6 and instead wants $50K and a job Lawrence Sullivan / Rockstar GamesThe ‘Florida Joker’ has now revealed that he is not suing Rockstar Games anymore over his likeness in the Grand Theft Auto 6, but he has claimed he wants to be the voice actor. Ever since a parodied version of himself appeared in the GTA 6 trailer on December 4, 2023, the Florida Joker has been constantly hitting out against Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive. Whether it be the various claims of suing them, issuing a “final warning,” and demanding $10 million, to even threatening to break the hacker behind the GTA 6 leaks out of prison. Now, the viral sensation, whose real name is Lawrence Sullivan, has finally revealed they are not suing the developers anymore. Instead, he has asked to voice the character and promote the game, as well as receive at least $50K. Florida Joker finally gives up on suing Rockstar over GTA 6 In a lengthy clip shared to his TikTok, the ex-convicted criminal appeared once again from a bush to provide an update with his stance on the situation. The Florida Joker announced: “GTA, Rockstar, Take-Two, we got to talk, I’m not suing y’all anymore, I’m not suing y’all, but you still out your god damn nuggets. It’s been two whole months.” “Y’all still haven’t reached out to me, y’all still haven’t DM’d me. Let’s do what’s right, shoot me like fifty thousand, a hundred thousand, let me voice the character,” he further demanded. Sullivan also stated that he wanted to “promote the game and go to every comic-con, meet and greets, let’s go man.” He ended by claiming: “I’m making the game more relevant, people wanna play it, I’m the reason why that game is so hype right now.” GTA 6 is set to release in 2025, and it was officially confirmed by Rockstar that it would launch on current-generation consoles, such as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. It is unknown what role, if any, the Florida Joker lookalike will have in the game when it’s released.

Florida Joker demands he plays GTA 6 character in latest Rockstar callout – Dexerto
Florida Joker demands he plays GTA 6 character in latest Rockstar callout Lawrence Sullivan/Rockstar GamesFlorida Joker has now demanded Rockstar to play the inspired character in GTA 6. Here’s what he said and how fans reacted to it. Since the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 was released, the anticipation for the game has been over the roof. Fans have been hard at work looking for clues that will lead them to the forthcoming Rockstar game based in Vice City, and they’ve been vocal about their anticipation. A number of real-life incidents from Miami, Florida were recreated in the trailer, which featured a convicted felon, who looked like the real-life Florida Joker Lawrence Sullivan. Sullivan has been threatening to sue Rockstar Games over the use of his likeness in GTA 6 since the unveiling, claiming that the company will not “pay him up” for the rights. Now that he has waited more than a month for an answer from Rockstar, Florida Joker claiming he deserves credit and that they should let him voice the character in GTA 6. Florida Joker demands Rockstar to voice the GTA 6 character of his likeness Florida Joker has made a sixth video asking that Rockstar Games and Take Two Interactive give him credit for the likeness of a similar character in GTA 6, following five previous video attempts to reach out to the companies. However, in the latest video, Sullivan has a new demand from Rockstar and Take Two in which he says, “I’m not trying to sue you. Let me voice the character, give me more storyline in the game.” He further continues, “Give me a few mil, give me some royalty, let’s do that deal. Let’s make history happen man.” Furthermore while requesting Rockstar and Take-Two for the deal, he tries once again to convince them by saying, “Y’all see what I did for the game. We made news, we made the blogs, everybody loves me, man. Find in the entire Florida state that character has been traded off of me. Stop playin’ with me. If I gotta sue y’all, I will.” While both fans and existing Rockstar Games actors have slammed Sullivan for their ridiculous threats, several users turned in their views on his latest demand. One such user said, “It would be hilarious if it turns out that this guy and Rockstar have actually started this as a weird viral marketing campaign up to the release of the game.” Another chimed in, “Lawyers told bro to pack it up, now he’s trying to secure the voice deal.” A third added, “Someone shut him up lol. What happened to the final warning? Warning converted into negotiation now?”

‘Florida Joker’ demands millions from Rockstar for using his “likeness” in GTA 6 – Dexerto
‘Florida Joker’ demands millions from Rockstar for using his “likeness” in GTA 6 Lawrence Sullivan, known as the real-life ‘Florida Joker’, is demanding millions of dollars from Rockstar for using his “likeness” in the GTA 6 trailer. After a decade since the last entry in the series, on December 4 gamers finally got their long-awaited first look at the next installment in the Grand Theft Auto franchise. The GTA 6 trailer was released ahead of plan after it was leaked online forcing Rockstar to scramble and officially release it themselves as the internet was in chaos. Fans have analyzed the trailer frame by frame and pointed out many easter eggs, such as references to past GTA games, real-life landmarks, memes, and more. One part of the GTA 6 trailer appears to reference the infamous criminal ‘Florida Joker’ — who in 2022 was arrested for a warrant for a concealed-carry offense. Quickly, the case went viral across social media, as the man’s mugshot displaying his facial tattoos rather resembled the notorious DC Comics villain. Florida Joker wants millions from Rockstar Games Quickly, ‘Florida Joker’, whose real name is Lawrence Sullivan, called out the Rockstar developers, claiming they were inspired by him. “GTA, we gotta talk,” he stated on the situation. Now, on December 8, Sullivan has reacted again, demanding that Rockstar pay him for using his “likeness.” “Everybody saying I’m hallucinating, that I’m not the joker from GTA 6, you’re out your god damn nuggets,” he said in a TikTok post. “That’s me. That’s the person they got the inspiration from. You see that?” Sullivan showed a side-by-side comparison of the in-game version of “himself” and his mugshot that went viral across the internet. “That’s me. GTA, we got to talk.” He added: “Or not, you guys give me a [million] or two. So what’s up? Holla at me GTA, Rockstar Entertainment, Rockstar Games. Rockstar enterprise. Florida Joker ain’t having that. Y’all took my likeness. Y’all took my life.” While not much is known about GTA 6’s setting, we do know the game takes place in the fictional state of Leonida, evidently a play on Florida. However, while the Florida Joker is unpleased with seemingly being part of the game, some are chuffed, to say the least, with one fan in disbelief as they spotted their “doppelganger” in the GTA 6 trailer.

Florida Joker demands $5 million over GTA 6 parody and gives Rockstar “final warning” – Dexerto
Florida Joker demands $5 million over GTA 6 parody and gives Rockstar “final warning” Lawrence Sullivan / Rockstar GamesThe ‘Florida Joker’ has now issued a “final warning” and wants $5 million in payment from Rockstar Games to avoid taking legal action over their likeness in the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer. Since the highly-anticipated GTA 6 trailer released on December 4, 2023, the Florida Joker has been constantly hitting out at Rockstar over his parodied appearance. The viral sensation, whose real name is Lawrence Sullivan, has made several demands to Rockstar through clips on TikTok. It started by insisting they speak but soon turned into the Florida Joker wanting millions of dollars in payment over their GTA 6 likeness. After various TikToks and no response from the developers, the Florida Joker has now issued his “final warning,” along with a demand for them to pay $5 million to stop further legal action. Florida Joker issues “final warning” to Rockstar Games over GTA 6 In a lengthy clip, the ex-convicted criminal appeared from a bush, before breaking down the demands. Sullivan explained discussions had been held with lawyers, and then announced: “We have sent you a letter, and we’re waiting for a response. If we don’t get a response by after my birthday, which is January 11, we are going to be taking legal action. “I want 5 million dollars now, I’m getting harassed everywhere I go, the airport, the streets, ‘you’re that GTA Joker.’” The TikToker then ended by telling developers Rockstar and Take-Two to “get me my money.” It is not known if Rockstar has been in contact with Sullivan over the dispute or what role if any the Florida Joker lookalike will have in the game when it’s released. GTA 6 is set to release in 2025 and was officially confirmed by Rockstar that it would launch on current-generation consoles, such as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Five years of NoPixel: All the greatest moments from GTA RP’s famous server – Dexerto
Five years of NoPixel: All the greatest moments from GTA RP’s famous server RockstarThe GTA RP NoPixel server has been around for five years now, and it’s been the perfect platform for streamers to entertain their fans. So, to celebrate its fifth anniversary, we’ve compiled a list of the top 10 greatest moments. When GTA V released on PC in April 2015, nobody could have predicted that NoPixel, a role-playing server created by a small team of developers and contributors, would blow up into the massive success it is today. However, it’s the reason why the game still constantly pulls an insane number of views on streaming platforms. Its expansive community attracted the biggest streamers in the world, and they’ve been hooked for years. Not only has it given them the ultimate platform to produce countless hours of entertaining content for their fans, but it’s also allowed them to play an important part in the server’s unique history and development. And what better way to celebrate its fifth anniversary than re-living the top 10 greatest moments on the server. It wasn’t easy to narrow down, but we’ve come up with a good blend of memorable moments. So, without further ado, let’s dive into it. Pretty much 5 years ago today after months of coding I finished nopixels first rp server. Pretty crazy I’ve been cringe for so long. — Koil (@ItsKoil) September 13, 2021 10. Glitched player turns into horror monster Like all games and mods, the GTA RP NoPixel server is prone to glitches from time to time. But that doesn’t mean it always ruins the roleplaying experience. In fact, sometimes it can make it better – like when Hoop turned himself into a monster. 9. Sodapoppin reverses into a petrol pump Chance ‘Sodapoppin’ Morris is one of the most popular contributors on the server. But even though he has created so many memorable moments, who could forget that time he hilariously reversed into a petrol pump with an old man in the backseat? 8. GreekGodX’s bike explodes with vengeance Dimitri ‘GreekGodX’ Antonatos has been a welcome addition to the server throughout the years. He’s had many great moments, like that one time a group of thugs set his bike on fire only to have it explode in their faces. 7. Pokelawls films Weasel News argument In 2019, Pokelawls’ character briefly worked as a cameraman for Weasel News. And while he was filming a live news segment, two roleplayers burst out in a heated argument, leaving him and his fans in stitches. 6. Mr. Chang falls to his death from a crane LordKebun rose to success on the GTA RP NoPixel server thanks to his iconic Mr. Chang character. He has since transferred his consciousness to a new body and changed his name to Mr. K. However, his antics have not been forgotten. Two worlds collided when Mr. Chang, who was the leader of the infamous ChangGang at the time, traded blows with a rival clan leader on top of a crane and fell to his death, screaming in anguish along the way. 5. Summit1G’s clutch getaway Jaryd ‘Summit1G’ Lazar showed fans that you could make clutch plays in GTA RP, too, after swooping in to save Mr.K from the police at the perfect time. He jumped off a highway, picked him up in the middle of a chase, and left them in the dust. 4. xQc meets group of angry Australians Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel’s time on the GTA RP NoPixel server has been marred with controversy. He’s been banned five times, including a ‘permanent’ one that was eventually overturned. But he’s had plenty of good times, too. xQc came face to face with a rowdy group of Australian characters on the verge of a road rage street brawl. But when he playfully denounced their nation, they turned their aggression onto him, forcing him to take it back. 3. PENTA’s greatest bait of all time It wouldn’t be a GTA RP NoPixel top 10 greatest moments list without PENTA in the mix. It was difficult to pick one given he’s had so many, but that time he was involved in the greatest bait of all time has to be up there. 2. Buddha exits a garage in style Like PENTA, Buddha is a beloved figure within the GTA RP NoPixel community. His Twitch channel is blowing up in 2021, and it’s all thanks to the many hilarious moments he’s produced, like when he exited a garage in style. 1. xQc, Sykkuno, Blau, and Buddha pull off ‘Rainbow Road’ heist And last but not least, we have the monumental moment when xQc, Sykkuno, Blau, and Buddha pulled off what many believed to be impossible and made GTA RP NoPixel history by completing three bank heists in a row. More than 200,000 viewers tuned in across four streams to watch them complete the challenge, dubbed Rainbow Road. It has been lauded as the single best moment in GTA RP history from veterans and newcomers alike. Special Mention: Blue622 memorial race The late Kenny ‘Blue622’ Tancredi helped make the GTA RP NoPixel server as popular as it is today. And when he suddenly passed away on July 4, 2020, it was a sad time for every single player on the server. However, they banded together to raise more than $40,000 to give him a memorial monument and pay it forward to others in his memory. And around the same time, they hosted a memorial race to celebrate his life. It’s worth a special mention beyond the rankings because it was a touching moment for players and viewers alike, and one that the GTA RP NoPixel community will never forget. And there you have it, folks. It wasn’t an easy task given how many great moments there are, but that completes Dexerto’s list of the top 10 greatest moments in GTA RP NoPixel’s five-year history. Given that there’s no concrete news about GTA 6’s alleged 2023 release date, the NoPixel will probably continue to thrive for a couple more years. And even then, the developers can always revamp for the sequel. If that happens, who knows what the limit will be. Koil and his team have defied the odds and made roleplaying mainstream in the gaming industry, and the NoPixel server is only getting more popular as time goes on.

First look at GTA Trilogy mobile revealed and players notice big difference – Dexerto
First look at GTA Trilogy mobile revealed and players notice big difference Rockstar Games/Tervel1337GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition players got their first look at the mobile version of the games and they are actually impressed by it. Rockstar’s release of GTA Trilogy has been rocky, to say the least. GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas have all been panned by fans and critics, leading to massive refund requests. Amid the controversy over the game’s look, gameplay, and bugs, Rockstar even offered an apology and went as far as gifting players the original versions of the games to compensate. Now, with the mobile versions of the games will coming in 2022, players have gotten their first glimpse at what they’ll look like and unlike the console versions, it seems this may actually be well-received. GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition mobile revealed As showcased by Twitter user Tervel, players can find the mobile settings in an in-game file and can use it to play. “This is how you can approximately expect the VC remaster to look like on mobile, if they don’t butcher it even further,” he wrote. In a series of photos, he showed off how each of the games will look on iOS and fans were happy with the results, noting that the trilogy looked half decent on a phone. It looks cool for being a phone, don’t? It seems it won’t have parallax… Will it have it? — Denis (@denissioX1) November 22, 2021 “Not gonna lie, the game kinda looks great on mobile,” one user commented. “Huh, doesn’t look bad, not bad at all. Hope it really keeps looking like this,” another surprised player remarked. And last but not least, III’s iOS settings: pic.twitter.com/4BkHPztlAs — Tervel (@Tervel1337) November 22, 2021 It’s unclear if these settings will perfectly match with the mobile games when they are eventually released or if they will be pushed back after the disastrous launch of the console versions. Until then, however, we can only hope they’re improved even more and fans can have a port to be proud of.

First GTA 6 screenshots leaked – but are they real? – Dexerto
First GTA 6 screenshots leaked – but are they real? Rockstar GamesIn a since-deleted Reddit post, fans of the Grand Theft Auto series might have been the first to see some new snippets of the long-awaited GTA 6. It is nearing six years since the last entry in the world-renowned Grand Theft Auto franchise was released on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Any new shred of information on a new entry sets the internet ablaze with rumors and speculation as the hotly anticipated title has been kept discreetly under wraps. In a September 11 Reddit post that was quickly deleted – along with the account that created it – some new screenshots were shared, showcasing what is allegedly GTA 6. While the internet is quick to jump on any new scrap of information regarding the latest from video game industry titans, Rockstar Games, it is worth bearing in mind that although the screenshots below may seem authentic, do take them with a grain of salt. The first of the supposedly leaked images highlights a character model from behind. Donning a pair of sunglasses and walking through what appears to be a cityscape, the picture reveals very little about the setting or period of the next GTA game. In a second post, we see a shot of a cop car in the rain. This one is even more difficult to make out but if real, one can assume the image comes from an in-game cinematic or potentially an upcoming teaser trailer. Finally, the leaks end with a proper gameplay screenshot. On an airport runway, the image gives us a glimpse at the mini-map as well as a presumably controllable jet aircraft While the Reddit post was quickly removed, there’s no telling as to just how credible these images might be. Countless leaks have been shut down over the past few months, though that’s not to say that leaks haven’t been accurate in the past. Read More: New GTA 6 story leak is absolutely insane, but is it real? Rockstar Games often keep their cards close to their chest, releasing trailers and gameplay snippets when they feel ready. But that won’t stop hungry fans from scouring the web for any new information they can get their hands on. Just recently we saw Rockstar North remove their Red Dead Redemption 2 mural, leading fans to believe that a GTA 6 announcement was drawing near. It’s only a matter of time before we get official confirmation on the release of GTA 6, until then however, keep an eye on out as we update our tracker with all the latest information.

First GTA 6 screenshot? GTA Trilogy players make big discovery in San Andreas – Dexerto
First GTA 6 screenshot? GTA Trilogy players make big discovery in San Andreas Rockstar GamesThe very first GTA 6 screenshot may have been discovered by eagle-eyed GTA Trilogy players in San Andreas. GTA Trilogy: The Definitive Edition has been panned by both fans and critics alike as a major disappointment, but that hasn’t stopped some players from searching through every nook and cranny for Easter eggs. Despite GTA 6 yet to be officially announced by Rockstar Games and GTA 5 still being ported to PS5 and Xbox Series consoles in 2022, players believed the gaming goliath may have hidden some secrets in the Trilogy. One such secret was discovered at the Lil’ Probe’Inn in San Andreas featuring some UFO photos and one very odd new screenshot that has players talking. https://twitter.com/Pollofrito69420/status/1458955135707713536 GTA 6 image possibly found in GTA Trilogy As previously established, there are some GTA V screenshots in GTA Trilogy, such as the billboard for Francis International airport in GTA 3. Players noticed some screenshots from Red Dead Redemption 2’s Guarma section and GTA V can be found in the Lil’ Probe’Inn, but one screenshot seems a bit out of place. The unknown photo features a house with a UFO in the top right, but it can’t be identified from an existing Rockstar title, sparking speculation from fans. “It has good graphics and looks modern, not like in GTA Vice City, San Andreas, and 3, I really don’t want to say GTA 6, but it does look better than GTA V,” a user noted. So, what could the image be from? Well, there’s a theory and it’s a wild one. https://twitter.com/Pollofrito69420/status/1460576137923411975 GTA 6 screenshot or Golden Girls Easter egg? Players noticed that the house looks eerily familiar to the one from Golden Girls – a sitcom that ran from 1985-1992. The garden in the front, trees, and layout are all very similar. But here’s the catch: Golden Girls takes place in Miami, Florida, which is basically Vice City in the GTA Universe and is rumored to be GTA 6’s setting. Cue the X-Files theme. Legit looks like the house from golden girls. Maybe a reference… golden girls did take place in Miami. pic.twitter.com/rdj6BKqud7 — Sean Henry (@acreativetitle) November 16, 2021 Whether or not this is a GTA 6 hint or not remains to be seen, but it definitely raises some very interesting questions. Perhaps there is more to be discovered in GTA Trilogy that can provide some insight, but until then, no doubt fans will keep on searching. The truth is out there. At least, fans want to believe it is.

Fastest ways to earn LS Car Meet rep in GTA Online Los Santos Tuners update – Dexerto
Fastest ways to earn LS Car Meet rep in GTA Online Los Santos Tuners update Rockstar GamesGTA Online’s Los Santos Tuners update is finally here, and if you want quick ways to earn rep from the brand-new LS Car Meet, well, here’s what you need to know. After weeks of waiting, Rockstar Games finally gave GTA Online players the 2021 summer update that they’ve been waiting for in the form of the Los Santos Tuners. As the name suggests, the new add-on is pretty much all about cars, as the GTA devs have added 10 new cars to the mix, with a further seven set to come through the drip-feed process. The LS Car Meet serves as the main hub for the update, allowing you to show off your new ride and race against others around the new Test Track. However, if you really want to experience everything that the update has to offer, well, you need to level up your rep. How to earn Car Meet rep in GTA Online The rep for the LS Car Meet is different from the usual RP you earn in GTA Online. Everyone starts at level zero and as you level up, you’ll unlock discounts on cars, customization options, and new cosmetics. Just like the normal GTA Online rep points, you can earn Car Meet rep in a series of different ways. Yes, you’ll get daily log-in bonuses and rep every few minutes for just being there, but they aren’t great amounts. As YouTuber GTAMen points out, the best way to level up is through playing the new race series and trying the new cars out. Here, you’ll gain some serious rep and be on the fast track to getting the big unlocks from the update. Best ways to earn LS Car Meet Rep in GTA Online If you don’t want to race on the open roads, you don’t have to. You can simply earn rep from wearing the new LS Car Meet clothes or customizing your car. Though, if you do want to race, the new Pursuit and Street Races series are your best bet, especially if you can host one-lap versions of the latter and get a full lobby. You can check out a breakdown of some of the best ways to earn Car Meet RP below: Hang out at the LS Car Meet – 10 Rep every 4 minutes (20 RP if wearing Car Meet clothes) – Test out cars at LS Car Meet – Customizing your cap – 125 Rep (Can be done twice a day) – Buying clothes from LS Car Meet – 125 Rep – 7-day log-in bonus – 100 Rep – 14-day log-in bonus – 250 Rep – 30-day log-in bonus – 500 Rep – Participate in a race – 125 Rep – Win a Street Race with 5 or more racers – an additional 80 Rep – Win a Pursuit Race with 9 or more racers – an additional 100 Rep – Of course, this is GTA Online, so Rockstar will be dishing out boosts over time. It won’t be long before we get a 2x or 3x rep boost for the week. If anything changes, we’ll update the numbers as and when, but for now, get out and grind up your Rep.

First GTA 6 character potentially revealed by actor – Dexerto
First GTA 6 character potentially revealed by actor Rockstar GamesThe first character from GTA 6 has seemingly been revealed thanks to an actor’s resume that appears to confirm that the game is definitely in the works. UPDATE – April 1 at 3:30 PM The actor Jorge Consejo has since removed GTA 6 from his resume, suggesting that Rockstar may have told the actor to remove the listing from his website. Original story below: While many Grand Theft Auto fans continue to play GTA V and GTA Online, there are plenty who are desperate for any sort of news or teaser about GTA 6. So much so, that after a supposed insider claimed that something was happening on March 25, parts of the GTA fanbase went into override with excitement. Unfortunately for them, however, nothing happened. Yet, it appears as if the first character for the game has been revealed right under their noses – with an actor’s resume letting information run free. The resume in question comes from Mexican actor Jorge Consejo who lists himself as working on a CGI role for GTA VI back in 2018. According to Consejo’s own listing, he plays a character known only as The Mexican – without a full name, location, or any other sort of detail being listed as additional information. Yet, seeing as the role was played back in 2018, it appears as if GTA 6 is actually in development. Some parts of the rabid Grand Theft Auto fanbase seemingly uncovered the information back in 2019, as the actor playfully acknowledged a tweet about his involvement with the game. He followed that up on March 27, noting that “because of contract stipulations sometimes I’m unable to comment on certain projects,” which would suggest that he is under a non-disclosure agreement for his work. Though, as he can’t comment on it, it’s hard to confirm as to whether or not he’s actually talking about GTA 6 or any other projects he has in the works – even though the timing would suggest he is talking about Grand Theft Auto. https://twitter.com/JorgeConsejo/status/1148726896810713093?s=20 Dear friends, While I read every message from you, please know that because of contract stipulations sometimes I’m unable to comment on certain projects. Please don’t feel ignored or unseen. I appreciate and value every single one of you. ❤️✌🏼 — Jorge Consejo (@JorgeConsejo) March 27, 2020 While there is still no confirmation from Rockstar themselves that the game is in development, it appears clear that it is thanks to Consejo. All that is left now is to wait for the confirmation about the name of the game, location, story, and a release date – though some have claimed that will all come before the end of March. So, we’ll just have to wait and see.

Fans worried GTA Remastered Trilogy will be missing one key feature – Dexerto
Fans worried GTA Remastered Trilogy will be missing one key feature Rockstar GamesRockstar Games will release the highly anticipated GTA Definitive Remasters on November 11, but fans are concerned they could be lacking an incredibly beloved detail. In a bid to appease fans over until the eventual arrival of Grand Theft Auto 6, Rockstar Games have teamed up with Grove Street Games to oversee a remaster of the sixth-generation era trilogy. Comprised of the critically acclaimed GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas, all three titles have been remade within Unreal Engine 4. Fans have been skeptical about the appearance of the remasters, but this concern could become far greater, as players are worried that the iconic soundtracks won’t be returning in their complete form. Will the remasters retain classic hits? The GTA trilogy is known for a plethora of things, with its addictive gameplay keeping the series popular, but the brilliant soundtracks surrounding these elements make Rockstar’s creations special. Speeding past the Ocean View hotel while Go West’s Call Me paints the scene is just one of many great scenarios made possible by the various GTA radio stations. Apart from the reveal trailer, Rockstar Games have been tight-lipped when it comes to the features included in the Definitive Editions. Notably, there is no specific mention of whether each game will have its radio stations restored in full. Concerned fans on the GTA subreddit have already begun to doubt the quality of the remasters: “The music won’t be the only thing this definitive edition will be lacking I’m sure.” me realizing that #GTATrilogy is just a week away and R* still haven’t shown new gameplay nor info on the soundtrack:#GTATrilogyDefinitiveEdition #RockstarGames #GTADefinitiveEdition pic.twitter.com/5yFh7qza7s — Numb Jarl (@numbjarl79) November 4, 2021 “This is one of my biggest concerns…we lose lots of great songs due to licensing,” another player said. Some players have noted the previous licensing issues too: “contracts to most songs should have been expired years ago.” Despite the worries of most fans, others are remaining hopefully, as the initial press release for the game did in fact mention “unforgettable music” would be included. Rockstar Games ran into licensing issues before with the PC and mobile versions of the trilogy, choosing to omit specific songs due to licensing agreements. Hopefully, when these games arrive on November 11, we’ll be blasting the same selection of classic tunes.

Fans pray GTA 6 map is real after seeing incredible size – Dexerto
Fans pray GTA 6 map is real after seeing incredible size Rockstar GamesEvery GTA map typically resonates with fans of the series and becomes memorable, and a new concept map has got players wondering about the GTA 6 map and how big and rich it will be. Rockstar’s GTA 6 is quite possibly the hyped and anticipated video game in history – and it’s easy to see why. The franchise has generated billions and sold hundreds of millions of copies. After what felt like an eternity, Rockstar finally announced that GTA 6 was in development in 2022. The mystery surrounding the project has got people amped with die-hard enthusiasts speculating about the game’s map, its graphics, and the possibility of Rockstar including a battle royale mode. Particularly though, the map is always a fascinating talking point. How gigantic will it be? Which real-life city will it be based on? These are some of the common questions that are posed with every release and one dedicated fan has teased players with a potential concept map for GTA 6. GTA 6 fans excited by concept map Grand Theft Auto 5’s Los Santos map was the biggest that Rockstar had ever manufactured for a GTA game and we expect the devs to go even bigger and bolder with GTA 6. This seems to be the general consensus amongst fans as one person has created a mock-up of what they think GTA 6’s map could wind up looking like, based on reports of the actual map being ridiculously huge. Needless to say, they are expecting it to make Los Santos look like a baby in comparison. They provided a comparison of GTA 5’s playground for scale and the concept looks to be about 2-2.5 times the size. “This is sick. I really want large cities like this in GTA,” said one hopeful fan, and another user said: “I think it’s gonna look a lot like that in scale, I really hope they take advantage of the new-gen consoles and make a bigger map.” A very interesting input was how the map could really tie into the story more cohesively: “It would be cool if the map was this big and it also took you around the map throughout the story in a natural way. For example, you start off in the top left for a chapter, and each chapter generally happens in a local area. Similar to how San Andreas was set up if you need something to compare it to,” laiiod offered. Spaceazzy simply said: “This is dope AF.” How accurate this concept map turns out remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure, the hype for GTA 6 is already reaching fever pitch.

Fan finds epic Red Dead Redemption Easter egg in GTA 6 reveal trailer – Dexerto
Fan finds epic Red Dead Redemption Easter egg in GTA 6 reveal trailer Rockstar GamesFans have spotted a subtle Red Dead Redemption Easter egg within the GTA 6 launch trailer that pays homage to a franchise great. When the GTA 6 trailer finally dropped earlier in December 2023, fans were quick to begin searching for Easter eggs in the new footage. With old GTA references, real-life people and more included in the two and a half minute long trailer. However, as is the case with developer Rockstar, the number of Easter eggs included in the trailer is so large that fans are still only now just finding new hints and teases. The latest Easter egg to be uncovered makes reference to another major series from the devs, Red Dead Redemption. The Easter egg, which was first spotted by Twitter user tempestGTA, is a nod to Red Dead Redemption 2 character Everett Morgan. Towards the end of the trailer, protagonist’s Lucia and Jason can be seen kicking the door of a store open moments before they go to rob it. The doors are littered with stickers, one of which has the face of Everett Morgan, a character from the Red Dead universe. So far, this is the first major Red Dead Easter egg that fans have picked up on. However, if anymore pop up we’ll be sure to keep you in the know. Other than GTA, Red Dead is one of Rockstar’s most beloved and popular franchises. The sequel, which was released in 2018, was met with near-unanimous praise from critics and fans alike. For a bigger deep dive on all things GTA 6 trailer Easter eggs, Dexerto has amassed some of the most exciting hints and nods in our piece here.

Fans debate possible Rio setting for GTA 6 after another “map leak” – Dexerto
Fans debate possible Rio setting for GTA 6 after another “map leak” Rockstar GamesGTA 6 hopefuls are debating a new “map leak” that seems to suggest that the unannounced game will take place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Fans have been eager for Rockstar to finally announce some GTA 6 news, but the company has been mum on details. However, there have been a few map leaks over the years that seem to line up with theories and rumors about GTA 6 taking place in both Vice City and South America. On the GTA 6 subreddit, fans began speculating that one of the leaked maps features Rio de Janeiro and used some real maps for comparison. “The bottom city is Rio de Janeiro in the leaked maps,” user Boastful_Clown wrote and provided “evidence.” As you can see, there are a handful of islands that line up with their real-life counterparts perfectly. Fans seemed to be okay with the Rio idea, but others remained skeptical. “I like the idea of the large size of ocean between the islands. A reason to use boats and planes more often to travel from one to another,” one wrote, believing Rio could be a good location. “I don’t agree with the consensus that it’s one large map. I think the reason they’re far apart is because there is a loading screen/fast travel mechanic behind it,” another suggested, referencing how GTA 5 has both Los Santos and North Yankton. “I don’t see why they would add Rio de Janeiro in a story about drug trade,” one fan wrote. Some just flat out denied the possibility, calling it “faker than a pair of Vinewood t*its.” It should be noted that Rockstar has had games take place in Brazil before. Most notably, Max Payne 3 had the majority of its story take place in the South American country. Sadly, with the “Expanded and Enhanced” version of GTA 5 coming out on PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles, it’s unlikely we get any news about the next game until after the next-gen port is released. Until then, expect way more GTA 6 speculation as anticipation continues to grow.

Fake GTA 6 announcement trailer ft. The Weeknd gives internet false hope – Dexerto
Fake GTA 6 announcement trailer ft. The Weeknd gives internet false hope Rockstar / Flickr: Kayla JohnsonFans of the Rockstar franchise were crushed when a fake yet stylish trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 featuring the Weeknd gave them false hope for the next installment in the series. This came just hours after a bogus livestream promised an announcement. Anticipation for GTA 6 has never been higher, as it’s been over six years since fans last got a game from the Rockstar franchise. So players desperate for any information were let down when a Twitch stream promising announcement info appeared to be fake. However the internet was tricked again on March 29 when an incredible trailer showed up on social media from the stream. The neon-soaked clip featured a hit song from The Weeknd and would actually be perfect for the official release. Fake GTA 6 trailer tricks the internet It all kicked off when a Twitch account called ‘GTAVI’ appeared on the streaming platform. The channel had a countdown clock, and promised to reveal information in two days. Only problem is, the counter ends on April 1 – also known as April Fools Day. Given that the account is not official from Rockstar, excitement quickly died down as many assumed it to be hoax. However the fandom got another dose of false hope later in the day when a trailer popped up on social media. While the video made its rounds, YouTuber ‘TroyDan’ brought a ton of eyes to it after tweeting it out for his hundreds of thousands of followers. “YOOO GTA 6 IS COMING!” https://twitter.com/Troydan/status/1244382507874779136 The trailer featured the wildly popular single ‘Blinding Lights’ by The Weeknd. The 80s influenced song was originally released in November 2019, and has since been many GTA fans’ pick for the next installment’s theme song. It appears to be tied to the fake Twitch stream, since it features the broadcast at the beginning and even uses the same logo and art from it. It could be another example of how far the prankster is willing to go sell their hoax. Rockstar fans initially believed it to be real, although quickly realized its connection. User ‘Mateo_2kgod’ said, “Can’t trust no one no more it’s on April 1st.” Another user echoed the somber sentiment stating, “The lies, it’s not real unfortunately.” While the developer has yet to even officially confirm they are even working on a new GTA title, rumors have been swirling around that it will take place in the Miami-inspired Vice City. If anything, this latest hoax proves just how much fans are dying for the next entry in the Rockstar franchise.

Fake GTA 6 ads are tricking players to “download” the game now – Dexerto
Fake GTA 6 ads are tricking players to “download” the game now Take-Two InteractiveGrand Theft Auto fans have encountered fake ads for GTA 6 while browsing the internet; suffice it to say, they’ve done nothing but get peoples’ hopes up. After years of rumors and speculation, Rockstar Games finally revealed that active development on the next Grand Theft Auto entry had begun. The studio announced the news earlier this year, though nothing else about the eagerly-anticipated project has surfaced in the months since then. Of course, the rumors and speculation have yet to subside. A recent report out of Bloomberg claims GTA 6 will include a female protagonist, for example. Grand Theft Auto faithful may soon find themselves inundated with another type of unofficial GTA 6 content. Beware: Fake GTA 6 ads making the rounds online While surfing the web, Redditor Ya_Boi_uh_SkinnyPeni encountered an advertisement for GTA 6, one inviting users to visit a website and “Play GTA VI Free.” The ad in question even features a fake GTA 6 logo, with art inside of the roman numerals modeled after a skyline. “Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope,” wrote Reddit user nguyenbh295. Others like ZinfiniteGuy took the bit a step further, joking that they installed the game and could confirm Los Santos as the locale and GTA 5’s Lester Crest as the protagonist. This isn’t the first time that fake GTA 6 ads have circulated online. It’s unlikely to be the last, either. Earlier this year, phony advertisements for the game were popping up on YouTube videos. It seems franchise publisher Take-Two Interactive nipped them in the bud pretty quickly, so here’s to hoping the same fate befalls this scam, as well. According to industry insiders such as Tom Henderson and Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, the next GTA installment may not hit store shelves until 2025. It’ll be quite some time before Rockstar’s ready to start rolling out its ad campaign.

Ex-Rockstar dev warns GTA 6 delay still on the cards – Dexerto
Ex-Rockstar dev warns GTA 6 delay still on the cards Take-Two InteractiveA former Rockstar Games veteran of 14 years has explained why GTA 6 may still be delayed, warning fans not to hold their breath. After years of secrecy, when GTA 6 was finally made official, its reveal broke three world records. The debut trailer broke the internet as tens of millions of fans got their first proper look – leaks aside – at what the sequel has in store. Now 11 years on from the last entry in the open-world series, it’s been an agonizing wait for the most dedicated fans. That wait, however, may not be ending anytime soon. Despite assuring a 2025 release in the first trailer, and executives having since doubled down in investor calls, the rumor mill has been abuzz lately with talks of a possible delay. Although these rumors are entirely unverified, and credible sources haven’t shared anything concrete, they nonetheless have social media talking. Chiming in on it all is none other than a former Rockstar Games employee. Having worked there for 14 years, working on a handful of iconic GTA games, Obbe Vermeij has peeled back the curtain somewhat to explain why a GTA 6 delay may still come to pass. Vermeij, having joined Rockstar in 1995, certainly knows a thing or do about releasing smash-hits. Credited for his work on GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, GTA 4, and all the handheld games in between, his 14-year run provides some unique insight. Speaking on the possibility of a GTA 6 delay, the dev explained how schedules often change closer to release. Right now, we’re a little too far out to gauge if GTA 6 may indeed be pushed back, he argued. “The decision to delay GTA 4 was made four months of so before the original release date. Any further and it’s hard to make the call. “Rockstar is probably not in a position to determine whether they will hit 2025 until May-ish,” Vermeij explained. Although it’s been more than a decade, we’ve seen tons of gameplay through early leaks, and Rockstar’s marketing for the sequel has finally picked up, this former Rockstar dev claims it’s too early to lock anything in. Given the enormity of GTA 6, with its enormous open world, dozens of activities, hundreds of gameplay systems, and countless interactions, it’s no small feat refining it all to Rockstar’s high-bar for quality. If things aren’t quite coming together as seamlessly as hoped for by around May, 2025, Vermeij believes a delay could follow, pushing it back to 2026. Obviously, for now, it’s purely conjecture. Only those inside the machine itself know how the game is shaping up roughly a year out from its targeted launch. We’ll just have to keep our eyes out for any sudden intel drops as Rockstar loves to keep the community on its toes.

Experts predict potential GTA 6 release window – Dexerto
Experts predict potential GTA 6 release window Rockstar GamesAnother group of financial experts believe that they might know the release period for GTA 6 – and it might be sooner than you would expect. Even though GTA Online is still going pretty strong in terms of players, Grand Theft Auto fans are chomping at the bit to get their hands on GTA 6. The new title, which has seemingly been confirmed as being in development by one actor, has fans whipped up into a frenzy. It didn’t help, however, when some jokesters decided to go live on Twitch with a stream that claimed to be revealing something about the new game – with them even going as far as dropping a GTA 6 ‘trailer’. Yet, despite all that, we might not be all that far away from the game being released. According to commentary from Intrepid Capital Funds, Take-Two – the publisher of Grand Theft Auto – is seen as a stock that is likely to earn investors plenty of cash in the long run because of the success of their releases. The next one they point to is GTA 6 which, the company projects, will launch following the release of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Though both Microsoft and Sony have a Holiday 2020 release as their target, the fund suggests that GTA wouldn’t be a launch title. Instead, according to their projections, this would be a “late 2020 or early 2021 event,” with no real month or date named as the target. Of course, it is easy to suggest that GTA will be a next-gen console release – there had been rumors about it being a PS5 exclusive after all – but other financial projections had put it’s release date in the range of 2021-2022. Though, suggesting that it could come not long after the new console release will certainly intrigue fans who haven’t held out much hope for a solid 2020 release date. Austrian games retailer Gameware, had an early listing for GTA VI that claimed it was coming in 2020, though that has since changed as the date has been removed. At the end of the day, we’ll just have to wait and see if Rockstar decides to start the process of slowly dripping out information as they usually do in the build-up to a game’s launch.

Ex-Rockstar dev explains why they made GTA V remaster instead of GTA 6 – Dexerto
Ex-Rockstar dev explains why they made GTA V remaster instead of GTA 6 RockstarDarion Lowenstein, ex-Rockstar San Diego employee, has explained why a GTA V Remaster is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X, rather than the hugely anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6. Few games have ever been as anticipated as Grand Theft Auto 6. Despite not even being confirmed yet, the sixth installment in Rockstar’s acclaimed series is rumored to be in development. Many fans were left scratching their heads following the PS5 reveal, in which, for a split second, some fans thought they were being shown a GTA 6 trailer. What actually transpired was a trailer for GTA V, remastered once again for next-gen consoles. Originally released for PS3 and Xbox 360, the game was quickly remastered for the PS4 and Xbox One. A similar remaster is on its way for next-gen, featuring improved graphics and world design. Now, though, in amongst disappointment from fans expecting a GTA 6 announcement, ex-Rockstar employee Darion Lowenstein has explained why the company have chosen to remaster the 2013 title for next-gen. “Because I used to produce games for Rockstar,” he started. “Tonnes of people are asking me why, at the Playstation 5 event, did we get an announcement of an updated GTA V, and not GTA 6?” Lowenstein explained that developers are often not given enough time to develop a game for an entirely new console, stating that they may only hear about its tech specifications a year prior to its release. “You just need more time,” he continued. “The cost of updating an existing game – making it prettier – is way cheaper, way easier than an all-new one. So, if I had to guess, GTA 6 just isn’t ready, and GTA V will provide a nice stream of income and a fun Grand Theft Auto experience that everybody knows and loves.” While Lowenstein does not work at Rockstar, he is uniquely qualified to comment on video game development. Time at Rockstar was followed by time at Activision Blizzard and EA. As for GTA 6, it seems that fans will have to wait for a reveal and official confirmation. Rumors thus far have stated that the game could be up to 70% complete but, with an experience as immersive as Grand Theft Auto, it could still be a while yet.

Ex-Rockstar dev explains why GTA 6 could disappoint players at launch – Dexerto
Ex-Rockstar dev explains why GTA 6 could disappoint players at launch Rockstar GamesGTA 6 is shaping up to be one of the biggest games ever, but a former Rockstar employee is warning that the title might leave players a bit disappointed on day one. Rockstar Games blew up the internet in December 2023 when they unveiled the first official look at GTA 6 with a record-breaking trailer, giving players their first look at a modern Vice City. Since then, the studio has remained relatively quiet, with only its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, announcing a Fall 2025 release window. As fans continue to wait for more news from Rockstar, former dev, Obbe Vermeij, appeared in an interview with YouTuber ‘SanInPlay’ to talk about game development and GTA VI. While Vermeij noted that he has no insider information as he left Rockstar in 2009, he was impressed by what he saw in the trailer, but had some concerns about how the game will be received at launch. (segment begins at 32:05) “I don’t think it’s gonna be wildly different from GTA 5. I think people might be a little disappointed on the first day, but it’s still gonna be the best game out there,” he warned. A bit later on, he expanded on this point, saying that while Rockstar could pull it off, the expectations are super high for GTA 6 and technology hasn’t advanced enough to make a jump like the ones from GTA 2 to GTA 3 and San Andreas to GTA 4. That said, the former dev also noted how the Vice City location and the whole Florida man theme suited GTA “very well.” “There’s some rumors about creating new technology having to do with animation and AI and all that stuff. I think it’s time for a revolution where animation is more so AI-driven and physics-driven. If anyone is gonna make that step, it’s gonna be Rockstar.”

Ex-Rockstar artist adds to GTA 6 hype with Vice City tease – Dexerto
Ex-Rockstar artist adds to GTA 6 hype with Vice City tease Jelly, YouTubeFormer Rockstar Games Senior Artist Stephen Bliss has posted some Vice City themed artwork for Grand Theft Auto fans, amid rumors of GTA 6 and its possible setting. Following many of the rumors and leaks surrounding the potential announcement of GTA 6, fans have been wondering what to expect from the future Rockstar release. Adding to the hype, long-time Rockstar Games developer Stephen Bliss has uploaded some new artwork, teasing fans of the popular franchise with some nostalgic artwork and possibly hinting at a familiar setting in GTA 6. Since it was leaked that a return to Miami in an upcoming GTA title could possibly be on the cards on February 3, there has been a lot of speculation about what the return of Vice City could look like. Stephen Bliss, who had worked with Rockstar for over 15 years producing art for many of the GTA titles, has (possibly accidentally) added more fuel to the rumors after releasing some new artwork in the classic Vice City style. On February 14, the former Rockstar designer posted two portraits with a similar background, featuring two new characters that looked like they belonged in the GTA franchise. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8h3FKplKeN/ The first image was apparently based on himself, as he claimed that it was a self-portrait in the hashtags, however, fans still drew some comparisons from Vice City’s main character Tommy Vercetti. Bliss’ second upload was of a woman smoking in a similar setting to the first and the artist asked his followers for their opinions on his latest Vice City themed work. Eagle-eyed fans might spot a similarity in the background, to that of the ocean-view hotel in the original Vice City. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8junFNlxu8/ The popular artist left Rockstar following the release of GTA V to pursue more of his own interests, although he has continued to create some GTA-themed artwork since leaving the iconic game publisher. Although the images would be similar to those used for an in-game loading screen, Bliss expressed that the art was part of his own “personal work” and not linked to his former employer officially.

Ex-Rockstar boss raises $42 million for upcoming GTA 6 rival – Dexerto
Ex-Rockstar boss raises $42 million for upcoming GTA 6 rival RockstarLeslie Benzies, former President at Rockstar North working on the Grand Theft Auto series, has raised $42 million in funding for his upcoming video game, thought to be a rival to whatever GTA 6 might turn out to be. The development of GTA 6 has seen a host of changes among the staff at Rockstar, with a number of big names – Dan Houser in particular – leaving the company ahead of the highly anticipated title. Fans will have to cast their mind further back for this particular departure though, which occurred in 2016. Benzies, who was a major driving force behind some of the GTA titles (including GTA V), left under something of a cloud, leading to an acrimonious legal battle against his former employers. The dispute was eventually settled in 2018. The former GTA lead is making a new game Prior to that settlement from 2018, Benzies established his own video game studio, called Build a Rocket Boy Games. They are working on an upcoming sci-fi title, called Everywhere. However, a new report from The Telegraph suggests that new investment has been secured from a number of companies, for the value of $42 million (roughly £32 million). One of the companies involved in the investment is reportedly Netease. The Chinese video game company are known for the Westward Journey series, as well as partnering with Activision Blizzard for the Chinese release of Overwatch. Despite being a sci-fi title, many have considered the game to be a rival to any future GTA game, especially with some other ex-Rockstar staff members working on it. Whether it can actually challenge GTA, the likes of which have been acclaimed and universally popular, remains to be seen, but this major new investment will help in almost every avenue of making and releasing a new title.

Ex-GTA dev explains Rockstar silence over GTA 6 leaks – Dexerto
Ex-GTA dev explains Rockstar silence over GTA 6 leaks Rockstar GamesA former Rockstar Games dev has explained why the studio stays silent on GTA 6 leaks, noting that the leaks aren’t as “important” as fans may think. Over the last few years, there have been plenty of leaks and claims made about Grand Theft Auto 6. Many of these have, of course, not been true, but there have been a handful of concrete ones as well. Back in 2022, Rockstar was hit with a massive set of leaks revealing early testing of the highly-anticipated game. Those leaks revealed the game’s two protagonists, some mission features, and another look at the wider Vice City setting. That was followed up with the first trailer being leaked hours before it was meant to go live. The GTA developers and Take-Two – their publishers – have confirmed that the big leaks haven’t had a big impact on the game’s release, despite the devs taking a big morale hit. Well, former Rockstar developer Obbe Vermeij, who worked on every GTA game between GTA III and Chinatown Wars believes the leaks aren’t that important. “The leaks are usually not as important as people think. It’s just because there are millions of people waiting for news and Rockstar doesn’t give them any news,” Vermeij told the SanInPlay YouTube channel back on July 23. Timestamp of 31:00 “By the way, the reason they do that, I can totally understand it because whenever a big company says anything – Rockstar, EA, Ubisoft, whoever – it gets analyzed and it often gets spun negatively,” the former GTA dev continued. “It turns into a negative thing. So from their point of view, their best bet is just to stay quiet. It’s a shame it’s gone that way but it’s not just their fault, its the fault of the public because everyone is just attacking the big companies all the time. So, they’re just better off being quiet.” GTA fans are getting pretty tetchy waiting for further details with some believing Rockstar are still dropping hints in GTA Online.

Ex-GTA 5 dev reveals “cash cow” GTA Online ruined single-player DLC – Dexerto
Ex-GTA 5 dev reveals “cash cow” GTA Online ruined single-player DLC Rockstar GamesA former Rockstar Games dev who worked on a scrapped GTA 5 single-player DLC has revealed that the “cash cow” of GTA Online was the reason we never saw anything. While plenty of Grand Theft Auto fans are looking forward to GTA 6 and everything that will bring, there are plenty of people who still play GTA 5 and GTA Online who have been looking back on what could have been. For many, the lack of a single-player DLC for GTA 5 has been seen as a big miss, especially as Rockstar has delivered some brilliant updates in the past with The Ballad of Gay Tony, The Lost and The Damned, and Red Dead Redemption’s Undead Nightmare expansion. Well, over the last few weeks, some insight into what Rockstar initially had planned for a GTA 5 DLC has come to the forefront and now former GTA dev Joe Rubino has blamed the “cash cow” of GTA Online. “You what happened was when GTA Online came out it was so much of a cash cow and people were loving it so much that it was hard to make an argument that a standalone DLC would out-compete that,” Rubino told YouTube channel SanInPlay at the start of July. The former Rockstar dev added that he was “upset” when it was scrapped as he wanted the team to do both, but it was a “business decision” that saw the DLC plan ended. “I was a little upset about that and actually was a lot of the reason for me being a little sour at that time. I was like “Yo, what the f*ck guys, this s*it’s awesome, let’s keep going, let’s finish this s*it,” he said. Ultimately, Rubino moved on to working on Red Dead Redemption 2 and some of the work for the single-player DLC went to GTA Online updates like The Doomsday Heist. Steven Ogg – the actor who played Trevor – revealed he’d even done motion capture for the update and other leaks have claimed that North Yankton and Liberty City-themed DLCs for single-player were also scrapped. Though, we’ll probably never see any of that happen.

Every GTA 6 tease found in GTA Trilogy: San Andreas, Vice City & Liberty City – Dexerto
Every GTA 6 tease found in GTA Trilogy: San Andreas, Vice City & Liberty City Rockstar GamesWith GTA Trilogy: The Definitive Edition now available, players have been reexploring the worlds of Vice City, Liberty City and San Andreas – and have discovered quite a few clues possibly connected to GTA 6, in the process. GTA Trilogy has had an absolute disaster of a launch. With game-breaking bugs, poor character models, and a boatload of other issues, the game has been panned by fans and critics, many of whom have demanded refunds. Amidst all the controversy surrounding the release, however, there have been a handful of hints discovered in the three games that may suggest GTA 6 is coming a lot sooner than people might think. Here are three teases Rockstar could have instructed Grove Street Games to insert into GTA Trilogy to hype up a possible GTA 6 announcement in the near future. GTA 3: Miami billboard change One of the most perplexing changes to GTA 3 comes in the form of a billboard that originally teased Vice City back when the game came out years ago. Originally, the Francis International Airport ad said, “See you in Miami,” but in the Definitive Edition, it was changed to “See you soon,” with a picture of a plane flying away from San Andreas. There are a couple ways to go about thinking about this. The first is that this might a reference to GTA 5: Expanded and Enhanced and players returning to San Andreas. The second is that the plane flying away from San Andreas symbolizes Rockstar finally moving away from GTA V. In any case, the change is quite a weird one, and players have doubts the billboard was edited for nothing. GTA Vice City: The butchered Rockstar logo Considering the state of the GTA Trilogy, this could either be a clue or a really big mistake by Grove Street Games. However, there is some evidence suggesting it was done on purpose. In Vice City, there is a pool in the shape of the Rockstar logo that is extremely off. In the minimap, the pool has six points, one more than the five it’s supposed to have. As pointed out by YouTuber Strange Man, the pool doesn’t even show up on the map in the original game, suggesting Rockstar wanted players to notice this. GTA San Andreas: The first GTA 6 screenshot? The Lil’ Probe’Inn in San Andreas features some updated UFO photos from GTA V and Red Dead Redemption, but one picture has players talking. Among the wall of photos featuring UFOs in the sky above iconic in-game locations, there is a house that isn’t from a game Rockstar ever released, leading some to suspect it might be from GTA 6. Players were able to determine that it’s a Miami house and linked it to a real-world location that may have been used for inspiration. Could this be a house players will visit in GTA 6? There are many possibilities. As the games continue to get updated and more areas are explored, it’s likely that even more GTA 6 teases will be discovered. As for when Rockstar decides to reveal the game, that’s still anyone’s guess, especially with the next-gen ports of GTA V still coming in 2022.

Every GTA 6 leak so far: Everything we know about Grand Theft Auto 6 – Dexerto
Every GTA 6 leak so far: Everything we know about Grand Theft Auto 6 Grand Theft Auto players have been speculating as to what GTA 6 could entail ever since GTA 5 was released. As the inevitable release draws closer, several leaks have surfaced claiming to reveal the sought after details of the next Grand Theft Auto game – we list them all here. Even with leaks circulating, Rockstar have done what they always do – remain silent. Few video game development companies keep themselves as shrouded in mystery as Rockstar do, as they have always announced game details on their own terms. Regardless, there has been an upturn in hype, largely due to several leaks coming out, and well, GTA 5 was released some six years ago! Some of these leaks appear more legitimate than others and while some do appear real, it is important to note that Rockstar have confirmed none of the information within them, or even the existence of the sixth game itself. The longer we go without some form of announcement, the more exciting a GTA 6 reveal becomes. While the game is yet to be official, it’s certainly a case of “when” and not “if” the game comes out. Rockstar job listings The first clue came in January 2019. Job listings with titles that very much sounded like they could be GTA 6 related appeared on the Rockstar website. Furthermore, job descriptions such as “Work with others to expand our next-generation graphics pipeline including advanced lighting and rendering techniques, and special effects,” sounded like a game being designed for the next generation of consoles. The only thing that was strange about these listings were the timing. One would have thought that the game would have been in development for a long time prior to this. However, these listings could be a result of Rockstar increasing the work on the game as the release edges closer. PS5 leaker Following that came what was a huge leak at the time. An anonymous leaker, who posted PS5 details back in December 2018, was proven correct when Sony officially revealed some of the PlayStation 5 specs. Given the detail of the leak, it was almost certain that this was legitimate and not guesswork. This certainly adds validity to the Grand Theft Auto side of the leak. It should be noted that while this works in the leaks favor, given how long ago it was, Rockstar’s plans could have changed in that time. Interestingly, the leak included additional details such as the PS5 release date (not finalized) and various other games, with one of them of course being GTA 6. Specifically the leak stated the next Grand Theft Auto game would release in the “holidays” of 2020 and that the leaker isn’t hearing anything PS4 related. This suggested that it would be exclusive to the next generation of consoles. Another hugely interesting point was that the sixth entry in the series would have a one month’s exclusivity period to the PS5. It seems unlikely Microsoft would allow this to happen, but if it were true, this would be monumental news in the gaming industry. The leaker also stated that Grand Theft Auto 6 would be based on two big cities. Subsequent leaks, which are discussed below, suggests they were at least half right. Former employee accidentally confirms GTA 6? The hype increased, even more, when it was discovered that a former employee had listed Rockstar on their resume. Specifically, it stated: “Create concept vehicles matching with real-world for [GTA 5 DLC] and upcoming [GTA 6].” There is no way to confirm the legitimacy of this information, but for what it’s worth, it does seem genuine. Moreover, the resume was actually deleted, potentially because the poster was alerted about breaking the undoubted NDA they had agreed to. Another anonymous leak Anonymous leaks should naturally be greeted with scepticism by default. Consequently, of all the leaks here, this was one is probably the least likely to be legitimate. However, one thing that did get it some validity was that the post was taken down shortly after. Interestingly, as the post was made by a guest (anonymous), it would have had to be taken down by Pastebin themselves. It’s possible Rockstar asked them to. The post itself claims the new game will be based on Liberty City and Vice City, reflecting the east coast of the United States. Another leak below suggests Rockstar are intending to go further than that. 600Glassdoor review gives map details away? Elsewhere, a leak that surfaced back in May is arguably the most legitimate, revealing potentially fascinating details about an upcoming game. The leak came in the form of a review on the website Glassdoor. Users can review websites they have worked for and share substantial details on the company. This leak is likely the real deal as Glassdoor require two forms of identification to prove you worked for the company in question and manually review each post. This doesn’t guarantee it’s authenticity but certainly gives it credit. Given the authentication required, the leaker couldn’t post details of the game directly. This would have been because, firstly, Glassdoor wouldn’t have posted the review, and secondly, because of the identification requirement, the leaker would have been breaking the NDA. Instead, the leaker provided information in the form of an acrostic passage of text. This is where the first letter of each sentence spells out something notable. In their advice to management section, the acrostic text reads out “GTA 6 LS VC LC”. Without a shred of doubt this can be interpreted to mean it will will include Los Santos, Vice City and Liberty City. Whether this is true remains to be seen. The main question surrounding this leak is whether the source is telling the truth, not the meaning of the post. Yet another leak After a lull period of GTA related leaks, another one appeared on Reddit on September 23. Posted on a throwaway account, the leaker claims to work for Rockstar and revealed a lot of intricate details about the game. They claimed the Grand Theft Auto 6 announcement date will come sometime “around Fall 2020”. If this is true, this would presumably rule out any chance of a release alongside the next generation of consoles, which will come as a disappointment to many. After all, we’ve had to wait long enough as it is! Interestingly, this leak claims the map will be based on two big cities – San Fierro and Las Venturas – which is in contrast to the leak saying it will be based on all of America. However, it does match up with the PS5 leaker who correctly predicted details about Sony’s next console. There were also an array of other details revealed, including: The protagonists – What buildings there will be and their detail – How guns will work and where to get them – Random events – Mini-games – You can read all about these in our article that covers this latest GTA 6 leak. Still, while this leak does match up with previous information, it should be taken with the proverbial grain of salt, as anyone can post details claiming to be in the know. Hopefully, the speculation will stop soon and Rockstar will finally confirm Grand Theft Auto VI! Page last updated 14:41 EDT, September 26, 2019

Epic GTA prank on grandma makes her believe wild gameplay is breaking news – Dexerto
Epic GTA prank on grandma makes her believe wild gameplay is breaking news Rockstar / TT: jordanbianchi2An epic Grand Theft Auto prank is going viral after a family hilariously tricked their grandma into thinking that the wild gameplay scenes on display were actually “breaking news.” Grand Theft Auto (GTA) has always been known as one of the wildest games imaginable. Players can roam around the streets and get up to all kinds of no-good in locations based on real-life neighborhoods surrounding Los Angeles. Whether it’s simply committing actual grand theft auto by stealing someone else’s car or taking it a step further by needlessly ridding of NPCs, there’s no doubt that many of the usual events that unfold in the world of GTA aren’t the type you want to see on your local news. But now, one comical clip is going viral on social media after a family tricked their grandma into believing that a wild GTA car chase was actually “breaking news.” The viral clip shows the family members sitting around the TV all while some truly wild Grand Theft Auto gameplay unfolds. At the start of the clip, the gameplay shows a car flipping several times before crashing into a couple of bodies. The grandma, completely stunned, sits forward and expresses shock at the sight as yet another car manages to flip multiple times before landing and continuing to drive. The prank’s success can largely be attributed to the incredible acting skills of the surrounding family members, who all acted shocked at the crazy “news.” While the original TikTok clip has seemingly been taken down from the original source, comments have flooded in elsewhere on social media as people witness the grandma’s priceless reaction. “She was flabbergasted,” one user stated as others expressed concern for the grandma. “They gon give their granny a stroke man,” one user added while another said, “Granny may never leave the house again.” And the opportunities to prank family members will only improve once Grand Theft Auto 6 releases, just as one user hinted, “Wait til she sees GTA 6.”

Easy trick to complete GTA Online’s Amateur Hour Import/Export mission – Dexerto
Easy trick to complete GTA Online’s Amateur Hour Import/Export mission Rockstar GamesThe GTA Online “Amateur Hour” Import/Export Source mission has been a frustrating one for players – but this simple trick might make it much easier. The 2016 Import/Export update brought players a whole host of missions to GTA Online, offering players new ways to earn cash and cars in the game. Even for seasoned players, these missions can be quite frustrating, with a number of criteria needing to be met to complete them. That said, with the game having been out for around 7 years now, players are finding the best ways to easily complete different missions, regardless of their difficulty, and that’s what has happened here. As supersaiyanrose124 explains, there’s a good way of completing the Amateur Hour one, which makes it much quicker and easier than completing it the ‘proper’ way. In the mission, an NPC steals the vehicle and you then have to chase after them and return it while having a 3-star wanted level. This isn’t exactly easy, and it can grow frustrating, but as explained you can actually trick the NPC into basically getting out of the car and waiting for you. All you have to do is initiate the police chase and then just leave the area, either by killing yourself or through some other means so as to lose the stars and slow the mission down. Eventually, the NPC will stop driving and just stand outside of the vehicle, at which point you can go there, shoot him and steal the stationary vehicle. Although this method seems great, one response to the post also suggested a way that seems even easier – as long as you trust in your shot accuracy. Read More: How to get a flying tank in GTA Online – Reddit user EditEd2x said that you can actually stop before triggering the car and shoot the driver before the car starts moving, with some handy spots to utilize to complete the mission. Whichever method you choose here, it’s much easier than attempting to complete the mission as it’s intended, so you can save yourself a lot of time, effort and frustration by following some of the above tips.

Eminem was once pitched for a GTA movie but Rockstar Games turned it down – Dexerto
Eminem was once pitched for a GTA movie but Rockstar Games turned it down Rockstar GamesGTA co-creator Sam Houser allegedly shut down the idea of a GTA movie starring Eminem, the film having been pitched to him just after the release of GTA 3. While it seems like almost every major video game franchise is getting a film or TV show adaptation at the moment, the gaming industry has never had the best reputation when it comes to creating movies or shows based on the source material. However, it has now been revealed that one of gaming’s biggest juggernaut franchises almost had a movie in the works. That franchise being the iconic Grand Theft Auto series. In the new episode of BBC’s Bugzy Malone’s Grandest Game podcast, Kirk Ewing spoke about his relationship with GTA developer Rockstar and how – at one point in time – his job as an agent led him to help pitch a GTA film to the company co-founder and President, Sam Houser. “Because of the relationship that I had with Rockstar and I had with Sam, I actually tracked him down to his hotel room one night where I knew he was going to be staying, and the two of us stayed up late and talked about the possibility of making a film,” began Ewing. “This was just after [GTA] 3. And I think at that point, you know, it was still in Sam’s mind that it might be something that he wanted to do.” And while it may seem like a no-brainer to green light a GTA film now, this pitch was from the early 2000s. A time when video game films didn’t exactly have the best reputation. The GTA movie had Eminem and a big-name director attached Not only was the general idea floated around but the pitch also had a director and big star attached to the project. “I remember taking a call about 4AM from a producer in Los Angeles with an offer to make a film, and he said, ‘Kirk, we’ve got Eminem to star, and it’s a Tony Scott film, five million on the nose, are you interested?’” Tony Scott being a very successful action director, having worked on the likes of the original Top Gun film. Despite this, the idea was swiftly shut down, Ewing then explaining how he “phoned up Sam and said ‘Look, listen to this, they want Eminem in the Grand Theft Auto movie and Tony Scott to direct, and he said: ‘Not interested.’” Ewing then went on to add that “at that point, they withdrew from any conversation about making a film, when they realized that the media franchise that they had, what they had, was bigger than any movie that was going on at the time.” And while the Eminem-led GTA movie pitch was shut down, there is always the possibility that one could get made at some point in the future.

Easy GTA Online trick boosts RP and lets you level up fast – Dexerto
Easy GTA Online trick boosts RP and lets you level up fast Rockstar GamesGrand Theft Auto Online players have got a pretty clever way to rack up tons of RP (reputation points) and level up super quick. Though, you will need some serious cash to put the plan into action. In GTA Online, cash is king, but RP isn’t all that far behind. You need money to be able to progress through the ranks and ultimately defend yourself against a barrage of enemy attacks – especially those who have been playing since the multiplayer mode first released. As you earn money, you’ll also start earning an abundance of RP too – which is otherwise known as reputation points. This RP allows you to rub elbows with the more powerful players in GTA Online as you have access to better equipment. You can earn RP from the missions that you complete, races that you compete in, and even from the casino’s daily free spin wheel. However, some players have got ways to make more RP than you may have ever imagined. The clever tip was posted to the GTAOnline subreddit by YouCanJustCallMeOP, who noted that you will need three separate warehouses to follow their method. If you have to cash to own a warehouse, as well as a Terrorbyte or CEO Office, you then have to start sourcing crates. By grabbing a crate, you’ll earn money and 2,500 RP – but then you put the warehouses into play. By using the warehouses and selling crates, you will earn 10,000 RP thanks to the ongoing double RP – this comes to a total of 12,500 when you factor in the rewards for sourcing the crate. By having multiple warehouses, you can use them to cycle around the crate cooldowns and amass tonnes of RP in a matter of minutes. Use the Terrorbyte/CEO office to source a special goods crate – Complete the source mission – Sell the crate at your warehouse – Repeat the method using a different warehouse – Of course, you’ll only be able to get all of this RP thanks to the 2x rewards on Special Cargo that is currently ongoing in GTA Online. This will last until the next weekly update, which should come on Thursday, July … On top of the different 2x rewards, these weekly updates offer discounts on a wide variety of items – especially the different vehicles.

Easy GTA Online money glitch doubles the payout for delivery jobs – Dexerto
Easy GTA Online money glitch doubles the payout for delivery jobs Rockstar GamesThere’s no escaping how important cash is in GTA Online so anytime a free money glitch pops up in the game players run to it like a wellspring in the desert. This one involves the car delivery service and is quite easy to pull off. There have been a wealth of ways to earn free money in GTA Online over the years. From the infamous car duplication glitch to tricking the game into allowing a character to skip big parts of heists, it seems like a new method pops up every week. This version is also technically a dupe glitch but it works much differently than the standard version that’s been popular for much of 2022. Instead of creating a new car to sell off, you simply allow an NPC to double your workload. Quick GTA Online money glitch gives players free money All you need to do this time is to start a customer delivery from the Auto Shop. When you’re in the car menu and choose whether you or a staff member will deliver it, choose to deliver it yourself but immediately scroll down and spam the option to have your worker deliver it afterward. If it works, you’ll see the notification that someone else is going to deliver the car, but you’ll also be spawned inside of it as well. This means your money will be effectively doubled for the time spent getting from the Auto Shop to the dropoff. While the cash won’t be a world-changing amount for one attempt, this glitch is infinitely repeatable, so you’ll be able to take advantage of it as many times as you’d like. Since big money-earners like the Cayo Perico Heist have been nerfed in the Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack update, smaller glitches like this can make a huge difference in anyone’s cash flow and might just keep you treading water if you’re not sure what the next big move might be.

Eagle-eyed GTA 6 fans uncover returning & new vehicles from first trailer – Dexerto
Eagle-eyed GTA 6 fans uncover returning & new vehicles from first trailer Rockstar GamesGTA 6 fans have noticed some interesting details about vehicles coming in the long-awaited title, including a set of returning classics. When Rockstar Games confirmed that the first GTA 6 trailer would finally drop in early December, the gaming world was left on tenterhooks because some of the key details about the game were finally going to be revealed. The Grand Theft Auto devs’ reveal didn’t exactly go to plan, though. Leakers revealed part of the trailer just hours before the planned premiere, prompting them to show it off early. However, that didn’t kill any of the hype – at least for fans. The trailer has set the internet alight, racking up YouTube records as fans search high and low for any clues Rockstar may have left behind. And, well, there are a few when it comes to cars. GTA 6’s first cars revealed in initial trailer As we know, vehicles play a huge role in Grand Theft Auto, and with GTA 6 looking to make full use of the new generation of tech, it’s only natural that they’re one of the first things fans look for. In the first trailer, we already get a good look at a few of them. Lowrider cars look set to return after being consigned to a GTA Online update in GTA 5, and there are a host of modern, real-life-inspired super and muscle cars cruising around Downtown Vice City. On top of that, there are a number of boats, including speedboats, luxury yachts, and even airboats. The latter of those is for navigating around what will be the GTA 6 version of the real-life Everglades, which gets a fair bit of airtime in the first trailer. Of course, as we get closer to GTA 6’s release year of 2025, Rockstar will start confirming the actual names of these vehicles. That’ll be interesting to see, given some of the hilarious names they’ve had in the past.

GTA Online money guide – fastest ways to make cash in GTA 5 – Dexerto
GTA Online money guide – fastest ways to make cash in GTA 5 Rockstar GamesLooking to make some fast cash in Grand Theft Auto Online? Here’s our comprehensive GTA Online money guide, breaking down the best ways you can get rich fast in Rockstar Games’ popular title. Are you new to GTA Online or feel you’re still behind the curve in 2022 when it comes to making copious amounts of quick cash? Are you still stealing cars to sell to Los Santos Customs, robbing convenience stores for a few hundred dollars each time, and wanting to avoid buying Shark Cards? Then we might have a few helpful hints to give you a leg up. Whether you’re based in Los Santos or right the way up in Paleto Bay, there’s something for you to get involved in that will see you make much more cash. So, with that, let’s take a look at all of your options. Contents Time Trials – $50,000 per week We’ll start with an efficient, yet, not overly rewarding method – Time Trials. These are weekly against the clock races that can net you a pretty penny if you can master the right route and get below the par score. As these are weekly races, there aren’t as replayable for big money as some of the other methods, so you’re better off just picking up an almost free $50,000 from each trial and moving on elsewhere. It’s a good starting point, though, and will help you begin to afford some of the other jobs – especially if you’re just getting to grips with Los Santos. Watch out for the weekly GTA Online updates as Rockstar Games usually includes some boosted payouts for Time Trial missions. Sometimes they’re worth double and treble, so it’s worth keeping an eye out. Heists – $400,000 per hour, depending on difficulty Heists are the biggest money spinners in GTA Online but can take time and effort to complete in an efficient manner. Specifically, the Diamond Casino Heist and recently released Cayo Perico Heist. For example, the Diamond Casino Heist requires serious money to take on the job, but doing the set-up missions will score you a few thousand dollars a pop. Once you’ve located the contents, though, you can figure out what your max take is. Here are the different totals: Cash has a max payout of $2,115,000 – Artwork is $2,350,000 – Gold is a slight step up at $2,585,000 – Diamonds can get you a maximum of $3,619,000 – Motorcycle Club missions – $100,000 per hour If you’re inspired by Sons of Anarchy, you can even start your own Biker Gang in GTA Online. These Motorcycle Clubs can earn you money from passive tasks like gun running or drug smuggling, but they take time and plenty of cash to reach their full potential. Plus, you’ll have to spend at least $200,000 on a base for your club. Nevertheless, if you own an MC, there are easy ways to make money where you’ll get your hands dirty. Using the club missions inside the setup room, you can earn between $10-20k per mission depending on which one you choose. These can be a pain to complete in a public session, but if you and few friends just want a bit of peace and quiet, hop into a private session and get to work. You can rack up around $100,000 an hour per player. Depending on the missions that you choose, this is probably one of the least grindy ways to earn your payslip. VIP Work – $100,000 to $150,000 per hour Now, if you’re already a high-roller in GTA Online and own a business, you can use these to add to your already huge amounts of cash. Though, if you’re new to Los Santos, try and find someone to buddy up with that is willing to help you up. The VIP Work – which is similar to the Motorcycle Club missions – can net you between $100,000 and $150,00 per hour depending on the mission type you select and how efficient you can bounce from task to task. Three of the best choices are Hostile Takeover, Headhunter, and Sightseer. You’ll also get regular cash drops for keeping your CEO alive. Again, this can all be done in private lobbies if you don’t want to test your skills against players who might have vehicles like the MKII Oppressor, so the cash will pile up before you know it. Take a punt at the GTA Casino The Diamond Casino has given players a much different way of earning – and let’s face it, losing – money in Grand Theft Auto 5. However, there’s certainly money to be made. There’s a wide selection of different games, including roulette, blackjack, slot machines, and others. One of the best ways to earn money in the casino, however, is definitely Inside Track horse racing. Read More: How to get more chips in GTA Online – You can either take a look at our comprehensive Inside Track guide for horse racing tips, or simply take a punt on any of those included in the online or offline lists. Simply approach one of the stations, select the horse based on the odds and hopefully pick up plenty of chips in return – which can be transferred back into dollars by the cashier. While you’re waiting for missions to cool down and restart again, this could be a perfect task to fill up some time and who knows, maybe double or treble your takings from the last Heist you completed. It’s all a gamble. Take part in double money events This tip may seem a simple one, but you’ll be able to increase the amount of cash you earn in a matter of minutes. These events range from scrappy fights in Motor Wars to the sneaky Smuggler Sell Missions. Not only will these events net you some decent money, they’ll also give you a chance to flex your skills against other players. Whether you fancy yourself a speed demon or an eagle-eyed marksman, Rockstar always has events that you’ll be able to excel in. Make sure you check Rockstar’s GTA 5 Social Club to see all the current missions on offer. If you don’t find any events that catch your eye, then simply wait for the weekly refresh. So, go jump into a game and avoid the gunfire of other players – there is plenty of cash to be claimed!

Eager players confused as GTA 6 is trending again – Dexerto
Eager players confused as GTA 6 is trending again Rockstar GamesIt happened again: Rockstar’s highly anticipated sequel to their legendary franchise, Grand Theft Auto, is trending online once more, but fans are disappointed that there’s still no sign of GTA 6. The hype around the next GTA game has been steadily building for the better part of the 2010s, and people are getting antsy for any news that would signal the arrival for the sixth mainline title in the beloved series. Heading into the new year, Rockstar faithfuls are convinced that the studio could be planning to finally announce GTA 6 sometime soon. While there’s been little hints of the game here and there, it hasn’t stopped social media from making the hype trend on occasion. Twitter has been the main culprit for this false hype, as fans around the world can’t help but join the tag when they see people talking about Grand Theft Auto. Since December 15, tweets have been flooding in about the upcoming title, ramping up the cycle of anticipation, excitement, then (ultimately) disappointment after finding out that there hasn’t been any real advancements. “When #GTA6 is trending but it’s not even out yet,” one disappointed fan said after realizing that Rockstar had yet to reveal anything worthwhile on the GTA front. The closest thing that Rockstar has said about a new single-player story experience was on December 15, when GQ sat down with Rockstar Director of Design Production Tarek Hamad and Design Director Scott Butchard. Hamad simply reaffirmed the studio’s intent on building more single-player stories, despite the massive success of GTA Online throughout the years.

But ever since, there hasn’t been meaningful reveals that the GTA community can cling onto, throwing people for a loop when the title started climbing the ranks of Twitter’s trends. As anticipation builds for the next game, keep it locked to Dexerto and our @GTA_Intel feed for the latest on any official news for Grand Theft Auto 6.

E3 give coy response to hopes for GTA 6 reveal trailer at E3 2021 – Dexerto
E3 give coy response to hopes for GTA 6 reveal trailer at E3 2021 Rockstar Games/E3Fans hoping to finally see GTA 6 announced in the form of a reveal trailer at E3 2021 should keep their eyes peeled, because the event’s official account has responded to fan speculation. Grand Theft Auto 6 has easily become one of the most anticipated titles in history, right up there with the likes of Half-Life 3. While that game’s future is uncertain, the same can’t be said for GTA 6, because it’s definitely happening, but the only question is when. Despite numerous leaks and rumors being spread online for years now, Rockstar themselves have yet to ever officially announce the game. As such, its release date and even reveal date have remained a mystery with fans frantically debating when they could get their hands on Rockstar’s pièce de résistance. Now, players may have even more reason to tune in as the official E3 Twitter account replied to fans asking about the possibility of a GTA 6 announcement coming in June. In a reply to a GTA leaks news account, asking about a potential reveal happening at the event, the admin posted a gif from the Walt Disney film Lilo and Stitch, with the alien lifeform receiving a pat on the head. While the GTA account has since deleted its comment, leaving only E3’s reply, the user did post a screengrab of the interaction, captioning it: “GTA 6 announcement IMMINENT.” Of course, this really doesn’t prove whether or not GTA 6 will have a presence at E3 at all, but the fact this account even responded in the first place could suggest something is up. https://twitter.com/NEWSLEAKSGTAS/status/1392833173277523972 Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive has announced they will be taking part in the digital E3 event, so that’s another element to consider when weighing the odds. This all said, the PS5 and Xbox Series X port of GTA 5 has yet to be released so it seems highly unlikely that Rockstar would announce Grand Theft Auto 6 when it still has the expanded and enhanced next-gen version of the previous game on the way. We’ll just have to see what the future holds when E3 2021 begins on June 12.

Eager GTA 6 fan makes their girlfriend sign legal agreement to let them play at release – Dexerto
Eager GTA 6 fan makes their girlfriend sign legal agreement to let them play at release Rockstar GamesA Grand Theft Auto 6 fan has made their significant other sign a “legal” agreement that allows them to play the new title for one week at launch. For many, it feels like forever ago since GTA 5 was announced to the world before its 2013 launch. A decade ago, nobody would’ve expected it would take so long for Rockstar to release the next installment in the Grand Theft Auto franchise, never mind announcing it. Finally, on December 4, 2023, fans got their long-awaited first look at the title after the trailer was leaked online ahead of schedule — forcing Rockstar to scramble and release it officially themselves. The trailer revealed that Grand Theft Auto 6 will arrive sometime in 2025. The targeted release window left many impatient players frustrated. However, one fan has made their girlfriend sign an agreement that’ll let them play “undisturbed” when the game releases. GTA 6 fan makes their girlfriend sign agreement to let them play In a TikTok posted by user ‘kyleptr’, the GTA 6 fan ensured they’ll be able to play the long-awaited title when it finally releases in 2025. “I’ve just written a relationship agreement that says I can play GTA 6 for a full week on release,” they explained. The TikTok user read out the terms and agreements to his significant other, which states that they must “leave the boyfriend alone for one week” after the release of GTA 6. These conditions are to allow the fan to “fully immerse himself in playing the game.” “The girlfriend will not disturb or interrupt the boyfriend while he’s playing the game,” the agreement reads. The agreement also ensures that the player will still hold up his end of chores in their home, such as cleaning, cooking, and other “essential tasks”, although notes there will be limited time for “personal care activities” such as showering, to which the conditions state that the significant other must agree to not complain about personal hygiene. Not only that but if on the chance that player hasn’t completed Grand Theft Auto 6 by the end of the one week, there’s an extension clause with “relaxed rules.” Surprisingly, the TikToker’s significant other agreed to all the terms and conditions, leaving many users in the replies stunned. Some joked that they need a copy of the agreement themselves, which is currently being sold with all the money going towards buying presents for a children’s hospital over the festive period.

Dr. Dre stuns GTA Online players with Cayo Perico heist cameo – Dexerto
Dr. Dre stuns GTA Online players with Cayo Perico heist cameo Rockstar GamesRapping legend Dr. Dre has stunned Grand Theft Auto players after making a surprise appearance in the new Cayo Perico heist for GTA Online. The game’s latest major update rolled out on December 15, adding a brand new island to the mix, not to mention fresh weapons and a list of vehicles we’ve never seen before. If you thought the fun stopped there, though, you would be wrong. Many players have been running through the setup missions for the Cayo Perico heist and discovered Dre makes a cameo. It looks like Rockstar Games kept this one under wraps. Where to find Dr. Dre in GTA Online For those wondering where to find him in GTA 5, you’re going to have to download the latest Cayo Perico update first and foremost. After that, based on posts online from fans, it looks like he will appear as part of the setup missions. Read More: All new GTA heist vehicles & prices revealed – Players made the discovery a few hours after the patch went live in-game, as Dr. Dre was spotted walking off a private plane by user soulslikegamer. https://twitter.com/soulslikegamer/status/1338813963522486274 They’re not the only one to have noticed his arrival in the series, either, as DJ Pooh also posted a photo – as he’s been added to the game as well. Boom! @drdre #gtaonline #lossantos #westcoastclassics ☑️ pic.twitter.com/QmtSJDc26i — DJ P👀H (@DJPooh) December 15, 2020 Dr. Dre GTA Online heist footage Many fans have been reacting to the news, and as you can imagine, the majority are ecstatic. If you haven’t yet seen Dr. Dre appear during the heist, the footage is quite cool to see as well. A group of “big guns” arrive and as you might expect, from the group flying out of their SUV comes the rapper along with DJ Pooh. https://twitter.com/KieranAllman/status/1338821417966718976 Whether or not the iconic figure will play a major part in the heist remains to be seen, but if he’s appearing in the early stages, there’s no reason why he couldn’t be.

Dr. Dre drops big hints ahead of GTA Online’s next event – Dexerto
Dr. Dre drops big hints ahead of GTA Online’s next event Rockstar GamesMusic mogul Dr. Dre could be making a return to GTA Online after dropping hints ahead of Rockstar’s next big event. The studio teased the next GTA Online event in their October 8 newswire, but it wasn’t until a few days later when we got a clue of Dre’s involvement. In fact, there’s reason to believe we’ll be getting new music from the industry legend as well as another GTA cameo. Rockstar expects to release GTA Online’s next event in the next few months. That coincides with a launch window that the artist himself may have hinted at. Rockstar acted like they forgot about Dre but the studio may have kept his sequel performance under wraps this whole time. Dr. Dre music in next GTA Online event? View this post on Instagram Instagram travel influencer ‘Gwil34’ was lucky enough to meet the Master of Mixology and he’s apparently been working on something with Rockstar. “He said new music from him for Grand Theft Auto game in December,” Gwil34 said. That could simply point to more classic Dr. Dre tracks making their way to GTA Online, but the artist also revealed he has “new music coming this year,” according to Gwil34. After 2020’s Cayo Perico update, players noticed Dre made a blink-and-you-miss-it appearance in one of the missions preceding the grand heist. He’s also had multiple tracks in GTA 5 and San Andreas, including some from his N.W.A. days. Rockstar’s wire told GTA players to expect “well-known contacts and familiar friends” to make an appearance in the “exciting new adventure in GTA Online” soon. With only a few more months in 2021, we’re bound to get more official news of Dr. Dre’s involvement but, as of now, nothing has been confirmed.

Does GTA Online still have Prime Gaming rewards? Situation explained – Dexerto
Does GTA Online still have Prime Gaming rewards? Situation explained Rockstar Games / AmazonSubscribing to Amazon Prime gives players plenty of benefits in a variety of different games, but does this still extend to GTA Online? Here’s everything fans need to know about GTA Online’s Prime Gaming situation. As many video game fans know, Amazon’s Prime Gaming offer includes a variety of perks outside of the delivery service, like its connection to the streaming platform Twitch. An active Prime Gaming subscription also gives players downloadable content for a plethora of different games, like League of Legends, Apex Legends, and Pokemon Go, to name a few. This also included Rockstar Games’ GTA Online. However, the developer recently updated its policy toward claiming free rewards for Prime Gaming users. Here’s a breakdown of everything fans need to know about these GTA Online Prime gaming changes. Will GTA Online still offer Prime Gaming rewards? As confirmed by Rockstar Support on March 31, 2023, Prime Gaming benefits will no longer be supported in GTA Online as of March 31, 2023. This change also extends to Rockstar’s other online title, Red Dead Online, whose support will end on April 3, 2023. The support page also explained that Prime Gaming members who play GTA Online anytime between March 30 and March 31, 2023, will receive “a one-time award of GTA$125,000.” Members who played Red Dead Online before April 4, 2023, will receive 5 Gold Bars, The Howl Emote, A Select Colorway of the Buckley Hat, and a Select Colorway of the Riviera Hooded Tunic. Before this update, players could receive up to GTA$500,000, broken up into GTA$125,000 per week, just by playing GTA Online with an active Prime subscription. It’s certainly a shame that support for the service is ending, as it was a nice, easy way for Prime Gaming members to earn a bit of extra cash to splurge on vehicles and other in-game purchases. It’s unclear why Rockstar has decided to discontinue the service, but all evidence points to this change being permanent.

Dr Disrespect praises GTA RP servers after watching xQc’s Twitch stream – Dexerto
Dr Disrespect praises GTA RP servers after watching xQc’s Twitch stream Rockstar Games / Twitter: Dr DisrespectDr Disrespect praised NoPixel’s GTA RP server after watching xQc’s Twitch stream, admitting it’s “addicting to watch,” and his fans have urged him to give it a go. Dr Disrespect hasn’t dabbled in the GTA RP universe before. He came close back in 2019 after admitting he “wanted in” on NoPixel’s GTA RP server, but it never came to fruition. However, it’s blown up in popularity again since then. Many big-name streamers, including Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel and Jaryd Russell ‘Summit1g’ Lazar, have joined the fray, and it seems like the Doc watches them from time to time. He recently tweeted about the server and heaped praise on it as a spectator. “Watching xQc’s GTA RP stream, trying to understand what’s going on. It’s kind of addicting to watch,” he said. That means he’s probably seen him do everything from use a glitch to smuggle a gun into a police station and get banned for a second time to being chased by a mad ‘local’ in a helicopter. And he can’t get enough of it. “The talent of the voice acting and different characters and how it all thrives in real-time [is] solid. There’s gotta be some GTA RP show that keeps people up to date with it.” Watching @xQc’s GTA RP stream, trying to understand whats going on. It’s kind of addicting to watch. The talent of the voice acting and different characters and how it all thrives in real time….. solid. There’s gotta be some GTA RP show that keeps people up to date with it. — Dr Disrespect (@DrDisrespect) March 20, 2021 Dr Disrespect fans urge him to play GTA RP The Doc’s tweet has already been liked more than 5,000 times. However, it’s also filled with comments from fans urging him to join the server and give it a go. The consensus is it would be hilarious to see him on, and his content will be comedy gold. However, it’s unclear whether he’ll be able to play on the server due to the repercussions of his controversial Twitch ban. Plus, even if he is, his interactions with other streamers might be limited, and vice-versa. Of course, it’s all speculation anyway. He hasn’t mentioned anything about playing on the server just yet. Perhaps he’s content with being a viewer for the time being.

Disguised Toast wants GTA RP Twitch ‘meta’ to end soon – Dexerto
Disguised Toast wants GTA RP Twitch ‘meta’ to end soon Disguised Toast/Rockstar GamesOfflineTV star Jeremy ‘Disguised Toast’ Wang teased the idea of him finally getting involved with GTA RP, but is also hoping people start to get bored of it soon. NoPixel’s 3.0 update has brought a lot of players back, and also introduced new eyes to the world of GTA RP. The roleplaying server, which is a part of a PC mod for GTA 5, has quickly taken over Twitch again, with streamers, athletes, and celebrities from from far and wide getting involved. Though, there some who are staying away for one reason or another and that includes Disguised Toast. The Offline TV member has been asked to get involved by his chat seeing as Sykkuno has become addicted to GTA RP, but he’s always said no on the count of not wanting to play with people who are focused on “networking.” However, he seems a little more receptive these days. During his April 22 stream, Toast returned to Twitch to talk to fans, explaining that he was stepping away from Among Us. He also noted that he wants the GTA RP ‘meta’ to be done with as well, but he might get involved first. Read More: Best GTA RP servers and how to join them – “A lot of people ask for GTA, maybe I’ll try it if I get really bored. It looks fun, and I kind of like the idea of not streaming it and playing a character and seeing how long before people figure out that it’s me,” Toast said before explaining that he’s hoping it tails off soon. “I’m kind of hoping that it’s not that popular for that much longer, no offence to anyone who plays it or like streams it. I just, personally, amn’t super excited about it and I’m patiently waiting for the meta to move on, but it seems like something I’d like playing. I just don’t want to spend the time and effort because I’m lazy.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hns2U3Dh4ow While Toast might want GTA RP to stop being incredibly popular, there’s no signs pointing to its downfall just yet. Some streamers, like Summit, are slowing down their involvement for now so that they don’t burn out. However, the game can still regularly be found in the top three most-watched games on Twitch with upwards of 250,000 viewers depending on what time you check.

Disguised Toast explains why he’s changed his mind on GTA RP – Dexerto
Disguised Toast explains why he’s changed his mind on GTA RP Disguised ToastStreaming star Jeremy ‘Disguised Toast’ Wang has changed his opinion on GTA RP and come around to the fact that it’s a whole lot of fun after being incredibly skeptical about it at first. With GTA RP taking over Twitch again, following the NoPixel 3.0 update, plenty of big streamers have gotten involved with the roleplaying mod’s most popular server. Streamers like Sykkuno, HasanAbi, and xQc have become staples of NoPixel’s criminal underworld, but not everyone was on board with it. Disguised Toast said he wanted the GTA RP ‘meta’ to quickly move and was incredibly skeptical about getting involved. However, he changed his stance on that and joined the party with his character Amon Gus – a play on Among Us, the game he’d spent nearly a year making content for. And now, he thinks GTA RP is a lot of fun. After his May 1 stream, the OfflineTV member noted that he was considering playing GTA RP off-stream after having a “great time” running around with Sykkuno. “I had a great time meeting everyone. Definitely changed my mind about GTA RP. I think the element of the awkwardness is still there and the hangers-on,” Toast said, “but at the end of the day, I think everyone is just trying to tell one big collaborative story.” He noted that some things are “unavoidable” and you will always find that some people gravitate towards being around big streamers, but you also have people who actively avoid them as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljHhT5ewP_U “I’m definitely having fun, slowly progressing and I don’t want to rush too fast because I want to take it slow, right,” Toast added. “I like slowly meeting the people on the server and figuring out who’s fun, who I don’t vibe with, and take it from there.” Other members of OfflineTV have been getting involved as well, and Corpse Husband, a regular in Toast’s Among Us lobbies, has registered his interest too. It just goes to show that, while it might seem a bit off from the outside, dipping your toe into the world of RP can be incredibly fun and will drag you in.

Disguised Toast caught playing GTA RP off stream and teases character details – Dexerto
Disguised Toast caught playing GTA RP off stream and teases character details Rockstar Games, Disguised ToastDespite previous reservations about the NoPixel server in GTA RP, OfflineTV sensation Jeffrey ‘Disguised Toast’ Wang has been spotted playing the game off stream. While thousands of streamers and celebrities have jumped into the NoPixel GTA RP server, streaming icon and OfflineTV star Disguised Toast has steered away from the title. Despite fellow members of the Amigops crew such as Valkyrae and Sykkuno having caused a decent amount of chaos during their Los Santos adventures, Toast commented that he had no interest in “playing with strangers who are focused on networking.” It turns out, though, that he seems to have reversed his stance a little on playing the iconic Rockstar title. Disguised Toast caught playing GTA RP Choosing to eject himself from Among Us, the game that he’s become so heavily intertwined with, Toast dropped some hints that he would consider jumping on the GTA bandwagon because “it looks fun.” He continued by stating that: “I kind of like the idea of not streaming it and playing a character and seeing how long before people figure out that it’s me,” and it turns out that’s exactly what he’s been doing. Revealing on stream that his character is called Amon Gus (collective chuckle), Toast is seen walking past a GTA character called Crystal on her stream. He goes on to reveal that he tried it off stream as he is “not comfortable enough to play it on-stream yet,” but admits that he actively prefers it that way. “When you play offstream it’s a little boring because people don’t really want to interact with you, which is why I also kind of like it, because the people that do interact with you are either nice or desperate for content.” He concluded: “I think it would be easier if I was on stream because it would entice more people to interact with me… but because right now I’m like, incognito, I get to explore the game by myself.” It sounds like a GTA RP stream from Toast might be around the corner, but we’ll have to wait and see.

Disguised Toast explains why he refuses to play GTA RP – Dexerto
Disguised Toast explains why he refuses to play GTA RP Twitch: DisguisedToast/Rockstar GamesOfflineTV star Jeremy ‘Disguised Toast’ Wang has explained why he hasn’t jumped on the GTA RP hype train that has taken over Twitch in 2021, citing the ‘networking’ that goes on. Since leaving Twitch in November 2019, Disguised Toast has become one of the biggest streamers on Facebook Gaming, with over 1.4 million followers. However, the content creator returned to Twitch on April 10 for a quick Q&A with fans, before returning to Facebook Gaming to stream Among Us, which has overtaken LoL and Hearthstone to become his signature game. But fans were delighted to see him on his original streaming platform, and chat begged him stream some GTA RP, which has recently overtaken League of Legends as the most popular game on Twitch. With fans urging him to stream GTA RP, Toast explained how his popularity would prevent him from enjoying GTA RP streams. “I’m a cranky old man,” the 29-year-old said. “I don’t like playing with strangers and I definitely don’t like playing with strangers who are focused on networking. “I’m not saying the majority of people on GTA are [focused on networking], I’m saying they do exist on GTA; I’ve seen them. I would say the majority of people just do their own thing, but there are people who would just walk up to you because you’re a big streamer.” Toast continued, “I think other streamers would play nice and humor them and try and make an excuse not to interact with them, but I would just be really rude, and I don’t want to cause any drama.” Disguised Toast had explained on his March 16 stream how “attention seekers” on major public GTA RP servers “triggered” him. “There’s always gonna be people loudly advertising what they’re doing, or showing up to popular spots because big streamers are there, and that s*** triggers me a lot. “So I don’t like it uncontrolled, because then I just become a d***, and people think I’m being an a**hole.” Toast’s concerns are probably valid, given the struggles other high-profile streamers have faced on the NoPixel server. Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyell, prior to his third and latest ban, had several issues with players stalking him and refusing to engage in constructive RP. Either way, it’s unlikely fans will be seeing Toast terrorizing the streets of Los Santos anytime soon.

Disastrous GTA Online clip is perfect reminder why randoms can’t be trusted – Dexerto
Disastrous GTA Online clip is perfect reminder why randoms can’t be trusted Rockstar GamesThings can get out of hand pretty fast when you’re playing missions with randoms in GTA Online, and this clip is the perfect example of how. We all know GTA Online is better when you’re playing and running missions with some friends or acquaintances you can actually communicate with. Sometimes there’s just no one else online though, and you have to make do by yourself. It can definitely work out, but more often than not, things tend to end in disaster. A perfect example of this was posted to Reddit by user Jamal1309, who was running a heist with some low-levels random players. Things quickly spiraled out of control, as you’d expect with a team lacking any kind of coordination. As soon as the police show up and the shootout begins, one player pulls out the laser gatling gun and just starts to open up through the doors. Another teammate joins in with their assault rifle, but quickly switches to heavier firepower as well. Jamal, probably well aware that something was about to go down, wisely moved himself out of the way of the doorway while his associate proceeded to aim their RPG. After repositioning themselves to make sure they got the shot they want, the random low level player lets fly and is immediately killed by their own weapon. Their ragdoll corpse a testament to their, and the team’s failure. As far as failed missions go though, it’s safe to say this one is at least hilarious, even if it is a complete and total mess. At least that player with the RPG might know to be a little more cautious shooting it through doors. So, what have we learned? For one, if you want to knock out missions and heists play with friends, and two, if you are in a group with random low levels, be sure to keep an eye out.

Did the official GTA 6 logo just leak? Alleged Rockstar merch spotted online – Dexerto
Did the official GTA 6 logo just leak? Alleged Rockstar merch spotted online Rockstar GamesSupposed Rockstar Games merch is catching fire across social media as a temporary store update may have just leaked the official GTA 6 logo. With GTA 6 confirmed to be in development, fans are chomping at the bit for any scraps of info they can get their hands on. From leaked images to alleged story details, there’s never any shortage of headlines popping up to captivate the crowd. While nothing has yet been made official, not even so much as a logo, that hasn’t stopped further supposed leaks from rocking the boat once again. In the latest wave, fans pointed out an alleged update to the online Rockstar Games store. While there’s no concrete proof this temporary refresh is legitimate, many are convinced it just gave us our first look at the official GTA 6 logo. The online Rockstar merch page was reportedly updated on April 15 with a single new item. Based on a screenshot captured before the store was supposedly rolled back, this new item wasn’t exactly ready to go live. Rather than a proper label and rather than having a price attached, the new shirt in focus had a codename and appeared to be free. Referred to as ‘Black_Americas_Logo,” this item of clothing featured a unique logo for what can only be GTA 6. Read More: Fake GTA 6 adverts are taking over YouTube – With the classic roman numerals displaying ‘VI’ with pink and blue coloring, many took this leaked picture to be the first look at the official GTA 6 logo. GTA 6’s logo (VI) has leaked on Rockstar store before they took it down. The title mentioned ‘Black Americas logo’. I can confirm this is Rockstar store. https://t.co/EEhtcmzKTe #GTA6 #GTAVI pic.twitter.com/7iV7ZUSAtQ — GTA 6 NEWS & LEAKS AMERICAS (@NEWSLEAKSGTAS) April 16, 2022 For the time being, there’s no telling its authenticity. On one side of the equation, known GTA leakers claimed it’s a logo they’d seen before elsewhere on the site. Meanwhile, others refuted the claims, arguing that the Rockstar site wasn’t updated at all in the past 24 hours. Even if this supposed shirt was only available for a matter of seconds, it would likely still be visible through a third-party archive like ‘Wayback Machine.’ As a result, it’s obviously worth taking this information with a massive grain of salt. While it could very well end up being the final GTA 6 logo, there’s every chance it’s just another fake in a long line of fanmade designs. One way or another, we’re sure to have confirmation in the near future. With Rockstar themselves confirming GTA 6 is well into development, it’s only a matter of time before we get an official logo, along with the very first trailer.

Developer leaks major new Rockstar VR game amid GTA 6 rumors – Dexerto
Developer leaks major new Rockstar VR game amid GTA 6 rumors Rockstar Games[jwplayer 91I9RIGm]New GTA 6 theories are swirling after the developers of L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files revealed on LinkinIn they’re gearing up for a new Rockstar Games project. While a lot of attention has been back on GTA V, what with the recent announcement of the game being ported to PS5 in an enhanced version, that hasn’t stopped the Grand Theft Auto 6 hype. “Having finished the critically well received L.A. Noire: The V.R. Case Files we are now gearing up for a new project,” Sydney-based Video Games Deluxe revealed in a post. Read More: GTA coming to Tesla? Elon Musk teases fans – According to the developer, they’re the new game will be an “AAA open world title in VR for Rockstar.” What’s interesting is that they straight up say it’s a AAA open world game, which lines up perfectly with a Grand Theft Auto title. It’s also important to note that with each console leap, GTA V has seen some major upgrades to how the game is played. With the PS4/Xbox One port, the game added a first-person view. Could the PS5 port have some sort of VR feature down the line? Further down in the post, the developers call this new project “ground breaking.” The choice of words made it unlikely that it is similar to their previous work where L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files was a remake of the original game. “We have a number of job openings in our Sydney studio including Senior Programmers, Engine Programmer, Designer and Animator,” the post continues. “If you are interested in one of these positions or would like two speak to someone who works here about VGD please get in touch.” Sadly, the fact that the team is only just now preparing to develop the title makes it unlikely that we’ll know what they’re working on any time soon. Regardless, this is certainly something to watch and be on the lookout for as we head into this next generation of consoles.

Did GTA Online just hint at new GTA 6 trailer? Rockstar fans torn over ‘teaser’ – Dexerto
Did GTA Online just hint at new GTA 6 trailer? Rockstar fans torn over ‘teaser’ Take-Two InteractiveHas a new GTA Online update hinted at when we might see the second GTA 6 trailer? While some optimistic fans are convinced, the ‘teaser’ has divided the community. Ever since Rockstar confirmed GTA 6 was in active development, fans of the series have been analyzing every scrap of information revolving around the acclaimed studio. Whether it’s an update for a different game or a cryptic social media post, anything and everything could be deemed a tease for the GTA sequel under the right microscope. As it’s now been well over six months since the first GTA 6 trailer debuted to record-breaking success, said analysis is now going further than ever. On the back of a seemingly innocuous GTA Online update, some fans are taking one particular shot in a trailer as a tease for what’s next. A July 26 post across social media revealed a new “Pegassi Pizza Boy scooter” coming to the game’s multiplayer component as part of a community challenge. Five seconds into the brief trailer, we get a shot behind the vehicle showing its San Andreas-based license plate. The license plate in question spells out pizza, replacing the ‘a’ with the number ‘4’. A sticker in the top left corner also highlights the month of October. Naturally, some have taken this as a surefire hint. Should October 4, 2024 mark the release of the second GTA 6 trailer, it’d mean a gap of 304 days between GTA 6 footage. Obviously, for now, though, this is nothing more than fan speculation, but Rockstar does love to tease its community, and fans run wild with all sorts of theories. As for the license plate, however, it’s worth noting this particular sequence of letters and numbers is nothing new. It turns out, this license plate has appeared on scooters in GTA 5 since the game launched back in 2013. Whether anything comes from this teaser, well, we’ll all just have to wait and see. But other recent theories have placed Trailer 2’s arrival around early August, as the next Take-Two Interactive earnings call is scheduled for August 8. Aligning the next wave of GTA 6 hype around an earnings call is certainly one way to leverage the IP in its hottest moment. For some, this latest round of speculation is a bridge too far. “Jesus Christ… just stop,” one agitated fan said on Reddit. “ The trailer will come out when it comes out. It’s not going to be hidden in some image or social media post or from the previous trailer.” Others fired back, reminding this player of Rockstar’s penchant for teasing its community in the leadup to new releases. “Who cares if [they’re] being delusional? There’s nothing wrong with speculating and having fun theories about this, it’s a game,” one player chimed in. For now, we’re all in the same boat, awaiting the next step on the road to GTA 6. The most-anticipated title of the generation is still on track for its late 2025 release, even with the recent SAG-AFTRA video game actor strike threatening to impact its development.

Rockstar finally resolve GTA Online bug wiping owned properties – Dexerto
Rockstar finally resolve GTA Online bug wiping owned properties Rockstar GamesRockstar Games have finally resolved a log-in issue that was completely wiping all owned properties from GTA Online accounts. The terrible bug was discovered on April 15. While some members of the community were exploiting a glitch that allowed multiple log-in bonuses of $500,000 a piece – racking up the cash – others were having their purchases reset. Those impacted by the bug will be delighted to know that the game’s developers have put things right and fixed the problem, though, meaning that nobody has to be scared of playing the game anymore. Using their official Rockstar Support Twitter account, they revealed on April 16 that the issue has been put to bed – rolling out a hotfix. They said: “The issue resulting in GTA Online for PC vehicles, weapons and properties not displaying in character inventories is now resolved. Please restart your game and sign in again for these items to display correctly.” Thankfully, things won’t be going missing any longer. The issue resulting in GTA Online for PC vehicles, weapons and properties not displaying in character inventories is now resolved. Please restart your game and sign in again for these items to display correctly. — Rockstar Support (@RockstarSupport) April 15, 2020 The game developer’s have been keeping the game updated regularly during the global health crisis, giving players different things to occupy themselves with when stuck at home, with weekly updates. The log-in bonus was only announced on April 13. However, many of them were dealt a devastating blow just a day later, after discovering their apartments and houses were no longer accessible after logging in. That said, the things that were lost should now have been restored, with a quick restart. The bug was first shared to the GTA Online subreddit, on April 15. Posting to Reddit, a user said: “Just lost everything, except my money and levels. All of my properties and things.” Another commented: “All my stuff is gone. Everything. 6,000 hours of grinding.” One other user said: “I’m on PC Rockstar launcher and lost everything, but have enough money to rebuy everything I lost, but cannot rebuy anything I lost because the “game catalog” needs to be refreshed, leading me to believe my character will reset back to normal eventually.” Some players claimed that they were afraid to log into GTA Online with the bug taking their things, although with everything now fixed up, normal play has been resumed.

Deadly GTA Online trick turns Oppressor MK2 into a two-seater – Dexerto
Deadly GTA Online trick turns Oppressor MK2 into a two-seater Rockstar GamesGTA Online’s Oppressor MK2 is one of the most deadly vehicles in the entire game and is often used by griefers, exploding everything in sight. Now, they’ve found a way to get two people on board. While that does sound like a nightmarish thought as we approach the Halloween holiday season, it’s actually scary in a very different way. You might be expecting to see one manning the controls, blowing people to smithereens, and the other hanging off the back with an RPG. But the reality is quite different because it’s not easy to make this work. How to make Oppressor MK2 a two-player vehicle Strapping two people into a flying bike in GTA Online probably sounds like dangerous work, and that’s because it is. Reddit user ChudSpannaday revealed their tactic to make it happen on October 6, but it doesn’t come without sacrifice. As seen in the clip below, the player basically drove the Oppressor MK2 right into somebody, using the front piece to lift them off the ground. The momentum of the bike’s speed kept them in place, forming the worst seat of all time. Not only is it a bumpy ride, but the player is executed in the process – which, come to think of it, is all griefers do on these bikes anyway. In the comments, one user joked: “What do you think the MK is standing for? It’s very clear once you realize it stands for Man Kidnapping.” At least now you know a two-seater Oppressor MK2 is a lot more deadly than normal – quite literally.

Cryptic GTA 6 ‘2021’ teaser discovered in GTA Online – Dexerto
Cryptic GTA 6 ‘2021’ teaser discovered in GTA Online Rockstar GamesThe theories surrounding the dates on certain doors around the Los Santos Airport has been brought up by GTA Online players again. But, are they really hinting at GTA 6’s potential launch date? Even though Rockstar Games haven’t given any indication about GTA 6 coming soon, that hasn’t stopped Grand Theft Auto fans searching high and low for potential clues. Out of the game, players have found retailers who have supposed release dates listed, while in-game, they’re linking all sorts of hints to GTA 6. The biggest, outside of the Casino heist referencing dates, comes in the way of the doors at the Los Santos airport. There are a collection of these security doors that have dates on. A few say 2013 – which is when GTA V was released – but others points to the future. It’s not too far into the future, however. Head to the security gate on the right side of the airport, drive on through and follow the painted road until you see two sets of spiral stairs. There, under the second set of stairs are some doors. Six of these all have 2021 stamped across them. Nothing else, no hint at a month or even a particular day, but just the year 2021. Others, as we’ve already noted, point to 2013. Of course, these numbers could very well just be random and link to quite literally anything, but some fans are certain that they are related to GTA 6 rather than say an expansion for GTA V or even a new title like Bully 2. Rockstar has, in the past, dropped small hints like this into GTA games before the next one is released. Back in GTA IV, there were adverts around Liberty City airport for flights to Los Santos. However, the iconic devs haven’t given any hint at GTA 6 yet and are working on adding new content to GTA Online with two new updates. So, we’ll just have to wait and see if this theory ends up being correct or not.

Danny DeVito turned into GTA character and fans love it – Dexerto
Danny DeVito turned into GTA character and fans love it Rockstar Games/Danny DeVitoBeloved actor Danny DeVito was turned into a Grand Theft Auto character by one artist’s incredible rendition of the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia lead. Danny DeVito is a hero of our time and an icon of Hollywood over the last 50 years. While he’s starred in cinema classics like One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Batman Returns, the youngest generation has learned to love him for his portrayal as Frank Reynolds in It’s Always Sunny, a show which has run for a whopping 15 seasons. To honor the 4’10” actor’s legacy, one artist put Danny in a series he seemingly fits perfectly into: GTA. Artist brings Danny DeVito into GTA Reddit user MiterMinister posted their work to the r/gtaonline subreddit with artwork of DeVito if he was put into the GTA universe. The picture was commissioned from animier-dich, a German website that translates any picture into art styles like The Simpsons, Rick & Morty, and Grand Theft Auto. Miter commented under the post that the DeVito piece took them over six hours to create. The image comes from the famous It’s Always Sunny meme, “So anyway, I started blasting” which has Frank pull out two pistols during a television appearance. The hilarious scene has been immortalized online, and now. has been brought to the world of GTA. Users in the comment section absolutely loved the drawing. One commenter said, “Two things that I love are GTA and memes. You’ve done it, sir.” Although it’s unlikely DeVito makes an appearance in the upcoming GTA 6, fans certainly hope Rockstar can fit him into the franchise for the first time.

Crazy new GTA Online glitch is launching players & cars into the sky – Dexerto
Crazy new GTA Online glitch is launching players & cars into the sky Rockstar GamesGrand Theft Auto players have discovered yet another insane glitch in the GTA Online game mode, with players being either launched into the sky and still alive when they come down, blasting their cars into space or having their vehicles completely destroyed in the process. A number of glitches have been uncovered by members of the community as of late, with one bug locking you inside the vault in the Diamond Casino heist, making it impossible to complete, and another that blasts cars into the air randomly like we’re back on GTA IV. Well, hold that thought on the second one, because this bug goes a step further – and it doesn’t seem to get the same result each time, so it’s all a bit of a gamble. GTA Online players have discovered yet another moving gate that really doesn’t like things being in the way when it’s closing off, located near the Pleasure Pier in Los Santos. The military style doors of the base open and close when cars approach – but time it right, and you will get a huge boost as it shuts, as seen in a Reddit post from XxKirito69xX on March 26. Using a tank (which can’t actually make it inside the doors because of its size), they wait for the doors to close, before being launched backwards by about a mile – a perfect escape route for anybody being chased by the cops, it would seem. However, not all players are seeing the fun side of this glitch, with some experiencing an especially destructive side to the doors. It has destroyed vehicles that have gotten in its way, for example, and another upside to the glitch – pun intended – is that it can actually throw your character high into the sky, with not enough fall damage taken to kill them when they come back down. As shown by user DhuffOtown, if you stand on top of the entrance while somebody else tries to use the glitch, you too can be plunged into the air. Based on the footage, it looks like the fall damage you take is actually as if you hadn’t been involved in a glitch, but instead from the height you would have fallen from the original gate. It’s unclear as to whether or not Rockstar Games are looking to patch this bug in the near future, although players do appear to be enjoying using this one and others like it. If you want to give it a try, you might have to act fast, as it might not last too long in-game. Fly like a bird? How about fly like a tank.

Crazy GTA Online clip shows why “$50,000 suspension” is totally worth it – Dexerto
Crazy GTA Online clip shows why “$50,000 suspension” is totally worth it Rockstar GamesA hilarious GTA Online clip showcased exactly why splurging on the best in-game suspension for a vehicle is definitely the way to go. GTA Online players love to spend money on the fastest, most expensive cars available but sometimes others like to get a bit more creative. Customizing different cars in GTA Online can oftentimes lead to some unexpected sleeper hits, as well as some hilarious moments online. That’s certainly the case in this Reddit clip from a player claiming the most expensive suspension option is totally worth buying. GTA Online clip shows crazy suspension The post, which gathered over 2,000 upvotes on the GTA Online subreddit in less than a day, is simply titled “$50,000 suspension.” The attached video shows a player driving over large, horizontal concrete pillars, as the car’s tires take the brunt of the impact and the car stays completely level. Usually, one would expect the car to bounce all over the place thanks to GTA Online’s sometimes wonky physics engine, but the in-game suspension boost does a phenomenal job keeping everything steady. However, it seems this post is a bit misleading when it comes to what upgrading suspension actually does in GTA Online. While you can certainly upgrade a vehicle’s suspension for $4,400, and not $50,000 as stated in the Reddit post, upgrading it mainly lowers the vehicle’s center of gravity. This means that while it can keep the car leveled when driving over big bumps in the road, it really serves to improve a vehicle’s cornering and handling. In reality, the reason the custom Sasquatch in the Reddit clip stays so level while driving over the concrete pillars is largely thanks to the build of the car, as showcased by Reddit user ‘ze_ex_21.’ Plenty of cars can achieve this effect but those who want to replicate this phenomenon perfectly should look for cars will big tires and lifted bodies, then sit back and watch as the vehicle handles speed bumps like a champ.

Crazy GTA Online car glitch sends players flying across the map – Dexerto
Crazy GTA Online car glitch sends players flying across the map Rockstar Games via Jelly YTGTA Online players have found a new way to send their cars soaring through the sky without having to pay the exorbitant price for the flying vehicles that already exist in-game. GTA Online and the city of Los Santos have seen quite a lot of chaos over the years. Whether it be airborne submarines or cars capable of spontaneous combustion, there’s never a dull day in the in-game world. While sending cars flying through the air is not a new occurrence for the game, Rockstar has been quick to patch out any of these bugs that were easily repeatable. That’s why players are flocking back onto the server to relive their glory days and send their precious cars up for one last ride. GTA Online car launching glitch This launch works by getting a car stuck between a set of hedges and a moving gate and initiating a burnout. This particular house is near the golf course in Richma and provides the perfect amount of space necessary. Once the car has been lodged into place properly, the car will wiggle back and forth before being released into the sky with an unbelievable amount of force. When explaining how to set up the launch, Pro_Kaur had some suggestions to make it easier for anyone following in their footsteps: “I recommend the pfister growler for this but the italy rsx work well too” One user joked out about the huge price tag on vehicles that can actually fly in GTA Online: “Who needs to get a f***ing 3 million dollar flying bike when u can make any vehicle fly with a gate!” Another commenter added: “Man thank you now I know what to do with my afternoon” Rockstar have previously removed these kinds of bugged locations from the game, but if the rumors about the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition slowing down work on GTA Online are true, this one may be sticking around for a while to come.

Crazy GTA Online car trick makes USS Luxington mission much easier – Dexerto
Crazy GTA Online car trick makes USS Luxington mission much easier Rockstar GamesGTA Online players won’t always fancy landing on a fully loaded aircraft carrier for the USS Luxington Business Battle, but with a few simple shunt hop mods, you could fly over there in a car very easily. Rockstar Games add a number of incentives for players to take part in Business Battles all the time, boosting their rewards in weekly updates from time to time. However, the forces on board the USS Luxington does make it particularly more dangerous at times. Well, the fine folk protecting the waters surrounding Los Santos don’t appear to be expecting people flying over in cars – which is no shock. Who would? One Reddit user has shown people how to infiltrate the zone very easily, but not everybody will be able to pull it off. Let’s see how it works. GTA Online’s USS Luxington mission, the easy way The eyes in the sky didn’t see redditor Matyaty coming, that’s for sure, after they set off across the high seas in a modded Issi Classic. As seen in the incredible clip below, after floating into the air, the player was able to use the shunt hop feature of the vehicle to move themselves up and down. This only works because it is set sideways, which is important for those trying to recreate the stunt. Without a trace, they were able to land on the carrier, take what they needed and flee the scene. Easy as it gets, really. What is the USS Luxington Business Battle? The USS Luxington Business Battle can be activated by diving on board the aircraft carrier, or even approaching it. If you’re operating a ship or plane, floating around this zone might not be the best idea as they can shoot you down in an instant. Exploiting the shunt hop bug, though, seems to avoid all of that. By completing it, you can earn $10,000 per player – so it’s definitely one where if you can make things easier for yourself, you can rack up money pretty quickly.

Crazy GTA 5 footage shows NPC ‘drunk driver’ cause huge accident – Dexerto
Crazy GTA 5 footage shows NPC ‘drunk driver’ cause huge accident Rockstar GamesGTA 5 NPCs have demonstrated bizarre AI before, but one fan nearly got taken off the road completely out of the blue by a random in-game ‘drunk driver.’ In a game with a massive open world like GTA 5 with tons of NPCs, there are bound to be times when the AI acts funny. From dead NPCs coming back to kill players to teleporting law enforcement, GTA fans have experienced tons of strange AI behavior. Now, one fan who was minding their own business during an in-game mission was nearly taken out by an NPC driver from three lanes away. GTA 5 NPC causes huge accident The footage comes from fan_of_super_dudes on the GTAonline subreddit, who posted a video with the caption “NPC’s definitely don’t aim for us…” The video shows the player in question in the middle of a heist for Lester Crest. The player is simply driving down the highway with no sudden swerves, no shooting, and no erratic behavior. All of a sudden, an NPC driving in oncoming traffic crosses the barrier, drives through two lanes of traffic, and clips the player’s car. The impact of the NPC’s vehicle nearly sends the GTA fan’s car down a rocky hill and onto the beach below, but the player luckily steadied the car in time. This is far from the first time reckless NPC drivers have caused trouble for the GTA community, but players seem to be fed up with them at this point. “This may be the most aggravating thing to me In this game. I’ll deal with MK2 griefers every day over NPCs intentionally f**king up my leisure cruises or grinding,” said user Adept_Cat_9135. Another user -Gir challenged those who don’t believe NPCs have it out for players and said: “Debunk this one naysayer’s, OP was in the farthest lane possible from the other drivers, no gunfire nothing going on other than a casual drive.” Though not an overly common occurrences, GTA Online players apparently need to remain vigilant of wild NPCs when driving the streets of Los Santos.

Colombian Netflix show accused of copying GTA Online artwork – Dexerto
Colombian Netflix show accused of copying GTA Online artwork Rockstar Games/NetflixA new Colombian Netflix show has fans accusing it of copying GTA, as the series’ opening seems to be greatly inspired by Grand Theft Auto’s art style. The loading screen and box cover artwork in GTA games is simply iconic, featuring characters from the game in a more cartoonish, stylized manner. These shots have become synonymous with the series and have become somewhat of a motif, with each new entry adding its own twist on the iconic artwork. Now, a new Netflix show called ‘El cartel de los sapos: El origen’ (The Snitch Cartel: Origins) has appeared to copy some of the GTA 5 art for its opening. Users on Reddit spotted the similarities and posted some side-by-side shots from the Netflix show’s intro and GTA loading screens to showcase exactly what they believe was copied. For instance, one shot with Michael holding a wad of cash seems to have been copied onto a character in The Snitch Cartel show, including the creases of his pants. Some characters have seemingly been ripped from the world of GTA and tossed into this new show, as well, as another screen shows two eerily familiar female Rockstar characters alongside a gun-wielding man from the program. Fans hit out at Netflix over GTA-style art “As a designer, there are a few immediate things you look for in these sorts of situations to see just how much of the design was stolen from something else. More often than not, a designer will copy the form of something EXACTLY because they perceive it to be perfect,” a user on Reddit wrote. “Holysh*t, anyone who plays GTA can tell it’s pretty much a carbon copy of the art. Rockstar should definitely sue, especially since it’s on Netflix lol,” another chimed in. Amusingly, Netflix has shown an interest in GTA before. Back in April, Netflix France tweeted “GTA 6 is coming soon.” It’s unclear if the account was actually hinting at this Colombian show paying tribute to GTA, but it’s still quite a bizarre coincidence in any case. If the series returns for more seasons, it will be interesting to see if they keep the intro or if they scrap it in favor of one with less obvious GTA-inspired imagery.

Controversial GTA Online update tweaked after players frustrated by changes – Dexerto
Controversial GTA Online update tweaked after players frustrated by changes Rockstar GamesRockstar Games may have tried to get rid of certain jobs in GTA Online, but they’ve reverted the changes after it locked fans out of one of GTA 5’s toughest achievements. It’s well documented now that GTA 5 and GTA Online have been around for nearly a decade and we’re no closer to knowing any concrete details about GTA 6. Fans of Rockstar Games’ iconic franchise are desperate for any sort of news or hint, but the developers have just plowed on with updating GTA Online and bringing new content to Los Santos. Though, one of the most recent changes caused a stir as it stopped players from unlocking the Numero Uno achievement/trophy because they could no longer play certain GTA Online jobs. Though, that’s been changed already. The achievement/trophy requires players to achieve first place in every competitive game type in GTA Online, including the parachuting and sea racing jobs. These jobs were cycled out of GTA Online back on September 16, with Rockstar stating that they were removing older tasks as a way to improve matchmaking. While not every fan was concerned about the achievement, removing the jobs also meant some fun races and nice ways to make cash were taken away. However, with the weekly update dropping on September 30th, Rockstar changed course. “Sea Races and Parachuting Jobs are also returning for a limited time, allowing those who have yet to unlock the “Numero Uno” Trophy/Achievement a chance to complete it,” they said. While the jobs are returning, they will be cycled in and out over time as Rockstar continues to adjust GTA Online’s matchmaking. It’s unknown just when the jobs will be tweaked again so don’t sit on your hands as you might miss them.

“Clickbait” GTA 6 leaks debunked by Grand Theft Auto 5 voice actor – Dexerto
“Clickbait” GTA 6 leaks debunked by Grand Theft Auto 5 voice actor YouTube: JoeDesigns / Rockstar GamesFresh off several GTA 6 announcements proving to be a hoax, the voice actor for Michael in Grand Theft Auto 5 gave advice to fans about “clickbait” leaks and rumors for the upcoming Rockstar title. It’s been over six and half years since Rockstar has released a title for the wildly popular action-adventure franchise, so understandably many are desperate for any information they can get on the series’ next game. However after a recent fake announcement trailer tricked players into believing a reveal was imminent, Michael’s voice actor Ned Luke spoke out on leaks and rumors in a live chat with Grand Theft Auto V co-star Shawn Fonteno, who portrayed Franklin. Grand Theft Auto voice actor speaks out on GTA 6 rumors The two actors sat down for a live chat on Instagram, where they discussed the recent flood of supposed leaks and rumors about the upcoming GTA title. “They said GTA 6 is gonna be made in Vice City. How do these people get all this information of what’s going to be what?” Luke exclaimed. He then turned towards the fans and said, “People do you not understand? DO NOT BELIEVE IN ANYTHING that you see on the internet!” Hitting out at Grand Theft Auto YouTuber MrBossFTW, he continued, “BossmanF**kTheWorld or whatever his name is, or any of those guys, don’t listen to those guys. They have no inside information, they’re just clickbait. And if you hear it from Rockstar, then you know. If you don’t hear it from Rockstar, you don’t know s**t.” @SWEGTA @BadgerGoodger Even the man himself said it. #GTA6 pic.twitter.com/NfgCqWSHEU — OhMrZvck (@OhMrZack) April 3, 2020 When a viewer brought up the idea of Michael being in the next installment, Fonteno reacted, saying, “Michael might be in GTA 6? I don’t know. S**t, I hope!” The actor then exclaimed that he would have multiple protagonists return, if he could. “If it was in my control, it would be Michael, Franklin, Trevor, CJ, Lamar, Lester, you name it. Everybody would be in there man!” he said. Luke agreed with his co-star and replied, “That would actually be really cool, just the playable characters from the other ones were somehow in there. Luis Lopez and Gay Tony, Niko and all of those guys. That would be really cool.” This isn’t the first time the two voice actors have called out rumors. In late January, both took to social media to mock leaks about the future title. “GTA VI confirmed. Jetpack confirmed. VI map set on the moon confirmed,” they joked. While many have speculated that the next game will take place in Vice City, so far nothing has proven to be true – showing that they may just be right that we won’t know anything until Rockstar themselves are ready to talk.

Clever GTA Online VIP Work trick makes cargo missions ridiculously easy – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online VIP Work trick makes cargo missions ridiculously easy YouTube: TheMissingSockA clever GTA Online tactic with VIP Work is making it ridiculously easy for players to complete Cargo jobs and even evade some pesky griefers. While there a tonne of ways to make money in GTA Online, the most dedicated of players can be found grinding jobs like Import/Export, Cargo, and VIP Work. However, while doing these jobs in a public lobby, you are a prime target for griefers. Players have uncovered ways to combat these problems, however, with one tactic with the Mobile Operations Centre making Import/Export mission an absolute breeze. In a similar vein, one player has uncovered a clever way to disguise players hauling cargo around the map – giving them time to reach their end goal. The tip was brought forward by Reddit user soupa-hot-fire, who noted that after someone starts a VIP Work job, all the cargo in the area of that job will disappear off the map. By simply letting the timer run on the VIP Work, and not completing the selected job, players who are hauling cargo will not show up on the map as a cargo blip. This means that, yes, their location will still be visible, but any griefer who wants to ruin their day and blow up the cargo, won’t know that they’re running cargo. Obviously, with this being slightly location-based, you’d need to start the VIP Work in selected locations for the best results. Soupa-hot-fire noted that Haulage will work for everyone in the session but something like Headhunter should be started as closed to the middle as possible. While plenty of players will probably take this tip with them into their public sessions, griefers probably won’t be the biggest fans of it being common knowledge. Though, if Rockstar figures that the tactic is too powerful – or more like an exploit – then they may have to step in and patch. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Clever GTA Online trick removes enemies from Import/Export delivery jobs – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online trick removes enemies from Import/Export delivery jobs Rockstar Games[jwplayer I6dekNS8]Grand Theft Auto Online players have uncovered a neat trick that allows them to complete import/export delivery missions without having to deal with waves upon waves of annoying enemies or griefers. Cash is easy to come by in GTA Online as Rockstar have given players plenty of missions and activities to grind out. Some of the most popular come in the form of import/export missions where, as the name might suggest, you deal with cars and deliveries. Typically, these missions require you to steal a car and then drop it off at a set location. As this is GTA Online, you can always expect a twist. Waves of enemies will chase you down and while some players have got a way to stop these enemies spawning, some have gone above and beyond – even eliminating potential griefers from the situation. How to remove enemies from GTA Online import/export jobs The clever tip comes from Reddit user Ryguy24452, who noted that if you complete one mission and then work your way into a solo public lobby before starting another, the game will help you out. By doing so, enemies won’t spawn and given that you’re in a public lobby all by yourself, you won’t have to deal with any other players looking to take you down. Deliver the car to your vehicle warehouse while in a solo public lobby – Find a new, populated public session and set your spawn location as your vehicle warehouse – Start the import/export delivery and then throw yourself into another – Complete the mission and deliver the cars in peace with no enemies spawning – Though, a word of warning for anyone who tries to use Ryguy24452’s method. Some players have reported, that, if you don’t get a move on and complete the mission quickly, your cars might start blowing up. The reason for this? Well, nobody knows and while the exploding car is a rare consequence, it has shown itself in GTA Online a few times before. Obviously, it might take a few attempts for you to get everything to work as intended, but, it seems as if it’d be worth the effort.

Clever GTA Online trick makes Cayo Perico heist casino prep much easier – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online trick makes Cayo Perico heist casino prep much easier Rockstar GamesGTA Online players have got a neat trick that makes light work of the security code prep mission for the Cayo Perico heist, and it even involves using the new submarine. The Cayo Perico heist has been available for almost a month, giving Grand Theft Auto Online players the chance to complete it a few times as well as figuring out secrets, the best strategies to save time, and a whole lot more. For the most part, players have focused on finding advantages and secrets during the heist itself – like finding two rare weapons, as well as the opportunity to grab gold as loot in single-player heists. Though, there have also been new techniques for the different prep missions. That includes the security code prep mission where you have to take down El Rubio’s security in the Diamond Casino. Getting away from the casino after taking down El Rubio’s key security members can be a little tricky. If you’ve done it right, police will swarm on your location, and you could find yourself in an all-out war with them. Read More: When is GTA 5’s next-gen update? – However, you don’t need to do so. As Reddit user GroundbreakingIron4 points out, if you park your Kostaka submarine by the NOOSE headquarters – off the east coast of Los Santos – complete the mission, and then blow yourself up before exiting, you’ll be teleported to the NOOSE HQ. As long as you’ve secured the codes, dying won’t result in a fail. You can simply take yourself out and avoid having to fight through the last few security guards, and police backup, while trying to escape. Park your submarine off the east coast, near the NOOSE HQ – Go to the Casino for the security code prep mission – Fight through the guards to get to the head of security – Take him down and secure the codes – Blow yourself up with explosives – You’ll have completed the prep mission! – Though, if you don’t fancy doing that, there are other ways to get around fighting with the police. As user aidanj97 also notes, if you allow the security guards to kill you after you’ve got the codes, you’ll spawn away from the casino with the job done. The explosives route, does, save a little bit of time seeing as you don’t have to walk towards the waiting guards after getting the codes, but it’s not a game-changer. Either way, these tricks will save you some hassle.

Clever GTA Online trick makes Import/Export missions a breeze – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online trick makes Import/Export missions a breeze Rockstar GamesA Grand Theft Auto Online fan has devised a clever trick for completing Import and Export missions without needing to continually keep killing waves of enemies. The sprawling virtual streets of Los Santos have something for everybody in GTA Online. You can set up a motorbike gang, go and rob the Diamond Casino and Resort, run races in Formula One cars, and have stunt shows in your own planes – the possibilities are pretty endless. Though, to fund all of this, you need a pretty sizable chunk of GTA Online cash. This can obviously be accumulated in a number of different ways, however, one of the best of which is doing jobs. Well, jobs like Import and Export to be exact. In Import and Export missions, you’re tasked with stealing high-end cars and dropping them off at different locations – the nicer the car, the fatter the paycheque. Though, the missions can be a little annoying to keep. Obviously, the person you’re stealing the car from isn’t happy about things and will send waves and waves of enemies at you in hopes of either getting the vehicle back or taking you down in the cold light of day. However, GTA Online fan blueberriesarepic has pointed out a clever trick that makes these missions easier. Instead of continually fighting off the waves of enemies, just leave the Helicopter pilots alive. This way, the game will assume you’ve not finished off a wave and as the pilot can’t shoot, you’re pretty much home scotfree. Now, you can obviously fight the waves of enemies because the game will only send four waves anyway, but following blueberriesarepic trick will save you time, money, and plenty of ammunition. That time saved will allow you to get back into jobs a little faster than planned so you can keep grinding out missions, racking up cash, and causing mayhem in GTA Online.

Clever GTA Online trick completely avoids VIP Work cooldowns – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online trick completely avoids VIP Work cooldowns Rockstar GamesGrand Theft Auto Online players have uncovered a clever trick that allows you to bypass the cooldown for VIP Work and pretty much jump into another job. GTA Online is full of different ways for players to rack up money and live extravagant virtual lifestyles. There are stores to steal from, races to win, and businesses to run – with the latter being one of the best ways to make money fast while playing. These businesses require you to be a CEO, or a VIP, which you can only do by running one for yourself. Becoming a CEO or VIP means that you can start jobs and make money while the business runs passively in the background. Though, the cooldown between certain jobs can be annoying. How to get no cooldown on GTA Online’s VIP Work That’s why players have found a way to get around the cooldown and jump back into VIP Work pretty quickly. However, it will require you to have the ability to become a CEO and also the president of a Motorcycle Club – which can be costly to start up in itself. The method comes from Reddit user eliasthepro2005, who notes that if you start a VIP Work job as a CEO, finish it, and then become an MC President, the cooldown will quicker tick to its end – and you can job between missions. Register as a CEO – Start the VIP Work job that you want to have no cooldown on – Complete the job, retire as a CEO, and then register as an MC President – Start an MC Contract (These are found on the wall of the MC Club prep room) – Complete the contract, disband the MC and re-register as a CEO – You should have the mission you want to play again without a cooldown – The Redditor notes that this method might not work with the special CEO vehicles and definitely doesn’t work with the client jobs you can start from inside of the Terrorbyte. Read More: GTA Online confirmed as free-to-play on PS5 – However, it is still a way to bypass the five-minute countdown on jobs like Headhunter and Sightseer – so you can quickly rack up the cash. Though, Rockstar might address the method in the future if it is deemed an exploit like the casino chip glitch.

Clever GTA Online TikTok reveals the best way to farm cash – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online TikTok reveals the best way to farm cash Rockstar GamesThis clever cash-collecting method from TikTok shows how players that have made some progress on The Contract can pad their bank accounts by taking advantage of a new kind of mission. There are plenty of options to up your cash flow in GTA Online but many of the game’s highest-earning tasks are both time-consuming and fairly difficult. If you’re looking to escape the stress of getting through a perfect heist or if you just want to reclaim some of your time, this is the perfect method to fatten up your wallet and quickly move onto griefing public lobbies your Oppressor Mk. II (or whatever you’re into). The best way to farm cash in GTA Online The basis of this routine is to use the Payphone Hits that were added in The Contract as the glue between other activities If you’ve started the new content and made it past the initial heist, you’ll be able to take advantage of these missions every 20 minutes after completing your first one for the day. All it takes is a call to your CEO and he’ll set you up with some hits that pay out a respectable $80,000 at the end. These missions will pay out 1.5x your money (up to 120,000) until January 6 as well. Linking this with other quick cash grabs – like cargo crates or Agency jobs – can net you up to 200k every twenty-five minutes if pulled off successfully. While a run of the Cayo Perico heist might make more money in a comparable amount of time, there’s currently a bug that’s making it less reliable in the long run, as your rewards might not be processed correctly. If you’re missing that quick influx of cash, just replace your regularly scheduled heisting with a couple of payphone jobs and get back to taking over the Los Santos streets like you never missed a step at all.

Clever GTA Online trick changes Casino Heist rewards cheaply – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online trick changes Casino Heist rewards cheaply YouTube: DoILookFatThe Diamond Casino Heist is the biggest money-spinner in all of Grand Theft Auto Online, but if you don’t like the vault contents that you’re given, there’s a pretty easy way to reset things. Since December 2019, GTA Online players have been able to break into the Diamond Casino’s vault and come away with big scores – be it straight cash, artwork, gold, or the rarest of the whole lot, Diamonds. Obviously, you need to invest a little bit in order to get the robbery underway, and if the vault’s contents aren’t up to your liking, it can get a little expensive to keep canceling in order to get what you want. However, some players have got an easier, and cheaper, way to easily change the vault’s contents. How to change GTA Online’s casino vaults contents for cheap The tip was posted by Reddit user whomadethisanyway, who noted that by following their method, players would only spend around $50,000 instead of the $300,000 or 400,000 they’d previously wasted in change costs. Like many GTA Online glitches, alls it really takes is to simply disconnect a PC from its internet connection or to close the application on a console when the time is right. Set spawn location to your arcade or last location – Start casino heist and complete the vault content scouting missions – If the target is not to your liking, call Lester inside of the casino and cancel the heist – Return to your Arcade, approach the heist board and get ready to restart the heist – When the game asks you to restart for $25,000, disconnect from the internet/close application while quickly pressing enter/A or X on console – By following these steps, the vault’s contents scouting mission should automatically complete and reveal what you’re going after. It will also remove the payment to restart the heist a second time. Obviously, if the game doesn’t give you what you want, you can retry it a few times, but more often than not, the contents will end up being worth your time to steal. Rockstar Games have been cracking down on glitches and exploits in recent weeks, with the most notable being the casino chip glitch that allowed players to rack up billions. It’s unknown as to whether or not this glitch will land players in hot water, but Rockstar hasn’t clamped down on the disconnect glitches in the past.

Clever GTA Online Daily Objectives trick doubles $1 million reward – Dexerto
Clever GTA Online Daily Objectives trick doubles $1 million reward Rockstar GamesRockstar Games have started handing out free stacks of $1 million dollars in GTA Online for those completing ten Daily Objectives, but some Grand Theft Auto players have gone one further and found a clever trick to double their cash. The game’s developers always give fans a way of making the most of what’s inside their Maze Bank account, with content updates rolling out on a weekly basis with boosted rewards for certain missions and huge discounts on valuable properties or cars. After announcing that members of the community only have to complete 10 Daily Objectives to grab a cool $1,000,000 in-game on May 21, some sneaky players have been looking for loopholes on how to get more cash and it appears one has been found. Having grinded their way through Daily Objectives in an attempt to grab more spending money in GTA Online, Reddit user cobragrad17 has seemingly found a way of making it a double whammy. According to the thread, those who have two different characters in the popular game can complete 20 Daily Objectives instead. This way, they can pick up $2 million instead of the standard $1 million package promised in the patch notes – just split off between two people. Technically, they are not doing anything wrong in completing the challenges twice and keeping what they have earned. It’s just strange to see, really, that it actually works! It’s unlikely that the trick will go without being patched in the future, so there might not be much time left before the trick doesn’t work again in-game. That said, Rockstar Games haven’t flagged it as a known problem, so that remains to be seen.

Classic GTA gang feature would be perfect for new GTA Online game mode – Dexerto
Classic GTA gang feature would be perfect for new GTA Online game mode Rockstar GamesGTA Online fans have suggested bringing back the ‘turfs’ system from San Andreas and bringing it to the multiplayer side of GTA 5, and it could be pretty perfect. While many Grand Theft Auto fans are waiting for Rockstar Games to announce GTA 6, plenty of others are still diving into GTA Online and dominating with their criminal empire. Even though the multiplayer side of GTA 5 is almost a decade old, the iconic game developers have continued adding new content to GTAO, most recently through The Contract add-on, which brought Franklin and Lamar back to a GTA Online story. Some fans have suggested that Rockstar dip into their backlog of ideas and features from older games and spruce them up for the modern-day, and one from San Andreas could actually be perfect. The idea was floated by Redditor TONEakaSHOW33, who suggested that GTA Online could benefit from bringing back the gang territories – otherwise known as turfs – from GTA: San Andreas. As anyone who played San Andreas knows, you had to wipe out a group of enemies in an area to takeover that turf and expand your reach over the city. If you’re good standing with a gang, they’d leave you be, but if you were beefing then you’d have to watch your back. “I’d be super down for dynamic gang areas that could be influenced by players,” said one fan. “Yes make that happen please Rockstar. Joinable gangs with colored clothes that give you bonuses, multiple ways to walk or shoot your weapons, added another. “Yes! I just started playing GTA5 and I really miss this.” As per some suggestions from players, it could be brought into GTA Online to replace the Gang Attacks that have split opinions over the years. Some players even suggested that Rockstar could bring it as a way to make community-created events like the Alien War an official thing. Though, who knows if they will do so.

CJ voice actor responds to GTA 6 rumors and slams Rockstar – Dexerto
CJ voice actor responds to GTA 6 rumors and slams Rockstar The actor who provided the voice of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas protagonist Carl ‘CJ’ Johnson has responded to rumors that the character will be returning to GTA 6 – and slammed Rockstar Games in the process. Though there has been no official confirmation from Rockstar that GTA 6 is in development, it is clear that the game will be coming at some stage, with many reports suggesting it will be arriving sooner rather than later. However, regardless of whether CJ will be returning for GTA 6, one thing is clear: voice actor Chris Bellard has made it clear what his feelings are towards playing the part, and the developer themselves, in an Instagram post. Posting a screenshot of an article suggesting that CJ might be returning, Bellard couldn’t have been more clear that he has zero intention of returning to the franchise. The post said: “To kill the rumors! I’m not involved in GTA VI at all. F**k @Rockstargames period… CJ will have to be voiced by another MF but not me IDGAF what y’all heard.” Bellard clearly has some serious beef with Rockstar, but in the years since San Andreas’ release it has never been made clear exactly what the issue is between the two parties. https://www.instagram.com/p/B6tp7NcHSYM/ Over the years, it seems that Bellard isn’t the only Grand Theft Auto voice actor to have had issues with Rockstar Games. Ray Liotta, who voiced Tommy Vercetti in GTA: Vice City, is rumored to have felt under-appreciated for the effort he put into the part. Similarly, Michael Hollick – who voiced Niko Bellic in Grand Theft Auto IV – seemed to be ruled out of voicing characters in GTA again after complaining about his pay to the New York Times back in 2008. So, while it can’t be confirmed whether players will get to experience a world with CJ once again, one thing is for certain… It won’t be CJ as you remember him.

Bryson Tiller adds to GTA 6 speculation following 50 Cent’s Vice City post – Dexerto
Bryson Tiller adds to GTA 6 speculation following 50 Cent’s Vice City post Take-Two, RCA RecordsAn Instagram story from singer and rapper Bryson Tiller sparked more GTA 6 speculation after 50 Cent’s cryptic Vice City tease. Grand Theft Auto 6-related rumors have swarmed for the last few years, and 50 Cent recently added to the chorus of speculation with a Vice City post on social media. 50 published the post in question on Twitter, with a Vice City logo accompanied by a caption that read in part, “I will explain this later…” The tweet additionally featured hashtags shouting out his partnership with Branson Cognac, which raised even more questions. And as the questions continue to pile up, another famous musical artist has added another wrinkle to the never-ending GTA 6 rumor mill. Is Bryson Tiller teasing his involvement with GTA 6? Not long after 50 Cent’s tweet raised eyebrows, Bryson Tiller shared an Instagram story that showed an interesting poster. The poster depicts the words “bta IV” styled like a GTA logo adorned across a yellow background. In the bottom right corner of the image sits the ESRB’s “M”-rated icon. Of course, fans in a GTA6 subreddit have already started playing the guessing game. One Redditor said 50 Cent and Bryson Tiller are probably “f—ing with us.” Others pointed out that the Tiller post, in particular, could simply hint at his fourth studio album. The latter seems the most likely in terms of Tiller’s Instagram story. 50’s been known to troll with abandon, so his cryptic tweet could mean any number of things. Either way, it’s worth noting that reports and leaks indicate GTA 6 may revisit the Vice City setting. If the recent teases do point to 50 Cent and Bryson Tiller’s involvement in GTA 6, it wouldn’t be too surprising to learn of their appearance on the soundtrack or as in-game characters of some kind.

Brilliant GTA San Andreas remastered trailer by a fan is getting a lot of hype – Dexerto
Brilliant GTA San Andreas remastered trailer by a fan is getting a lot of hype RockstarSome Grand Theft Auto fans have made an incredible concept trailer for a GTA San Andres Remastered edition, and it’s so good, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s real or a starting point for GTA 6. While many GTA fans see Grand Theft Auto V as the pinnacle of Rockstar Games’ iconic franchise, there are plenty of others who yearn for the older games and believe that they, despite their age, are still better. Even though GTA V uses Los Santos as a backdrop, there are many who believe that the original San Andreas title is still the best game that Rockstar has ever made. The original game has been released a few times over the years, and with the next-gen consoles starting to make their way to fans across the world, some would like to see it be given the full remastered treatment. While Rockstar Games are unlikely to remake the 16-year-old game, seeing as they’re apparently working on GTA 6, some fans have decided to cut together their own trailer using GTA V. It comes from YouTuber XXII, who dropped the concept trailer just prior to the turn of the new year, complete with the characters fans come to know and love – including CJ, Catalina, and OG Loc – as well as those that they hate, Ryder and Big Smoke. It’s also got some of the iconic spots as well, including glimpses of the Las Venturas skyline, the old Boneyard full of Hydra jets, and different locations around the infamous Grove Street. Sadly though, as the video says, it is purely a concept, and unlike some other mods for GTA V – including setting it in Chicago and giving the game raytracing – it’s probably going to release for others to play. As for official, new things from Rockstar, they’ve remained tight-lipped about their next installment to the GTA franchise, but GTA V is set to be updated for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in early 2021.

Best tips for GTA Online Open Wheel Racing: Tire types, KERS boost, more – Dexerto
Best tips for GTA Online Open Wheel Racing: Tire types, KERS boost, more Rockstar GamesMany GTA Online players will be aware that Rockstar Games have added a brand new Open Wheel Racing series for them to jump into, but there are some handy tips that could give you an advantage. The game’s developers added the new Formula 1-style races as part of their February 28 update, with two playable vehicles – the Progen PR4 and Ocelot R88 – being made available for all drivers to try out inside the confines of a race track. If you would like to buy one of them to add to your garage, however, they are priced at $3,515,000 and $3,115,000 respectively, at Legendary Motorsport. That doesn’t matter in these races, though, as any player – no matter their budget – can drive them as part of the race. So, let’s jump right into the tips. Pick the right car Picking your car is the first step for any driver playing Open Wheel Racing, although there’s not much difference between the spec of the two F1 vehicles. The PR4 has slightly better traction, as seen below, but the differences are very minimal. Honestly, either car will be just as effective. Differences between PR4 & R88 in GTA Pick the right tires This is a really important step: picking the tires that will work for you. There are three different types of tire in GTA Online’s Open Wheel Racing. These are Soft, Medium and Hard – each of which have their advantages and disadvantages, so it’s all about selecting the right one. GTA Online: Differences in Formula 1 tires Soft tires: Wear out quickly but have really good grip. If it’s a wet race, these should be your go-to choice. – Medium tires: Middle of the pack, so there’s good balance between handling and durability. This is the safe option as they’re effective in all conditions. – Hard tires: These tires take the longest to degrade but don’t offer the grip other tires do. Less pit stops is a bonus. – Don’t forget the pits! Pit stops are commonplace in any Formula 1 race and Rockstar have included the function in the Open Wheel series, too. While they take up some valuable racing time, it would be a mistake – particularly with Soft or Medium tires – to completely ignore the need to turn into the pits at least once during the race. Those using Hard tires might get away with it, although they will lose the benefits of the other two. You might feel like your opponents are going to blow you away, but not many will last the whole race without a stoppage so don’t worry about that. Whether it’s real damage to the shell, tires running down or just a knock, making sure you’re in top condition will be of great benefit the longer the race goes on. Constantly monitoring your Vehicle Health and Tire Health is the key to using pits in a useful way. Exploit the KERS system You usually see the word ‘exploit’ and think that what’s going to be discussed shouldn’t be in the game, but the Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) has been intentionally added to these races. Not using it effectively would be a massive mistake as it can offer a real help when chasing the pack. Basically, this is a boost system but it can’t be used all of the time. You have to wait for your KERS bar (located at the bottom of your screen) to fill up, and then activate it, This can be done by clicking in the left analog stick on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, or by using the G key on PC platform. In terms of the best times to use it, it really depends on the situation. Using it when your vehicle isn’t lined up properly will force it to spin out, but a good time to use KERS is just when exiting a corner. The boost only lasts a split second and can be filled up by braking around corners. So, there you have it! Those are a few top tips to get you started on GTA Online’s Open Wheel Racing series. You never know, using the KERS system more effectively, picking the right tires, or taking that extra visit to the pit stop might be the difference between first place and fifth. Good luck!

Bizarre rumor sparks calls to feature Addison Rae in GTA 6 – Dexerto
Bizarre rumor sparks calls to feature Addison Rae in GTA 6 Addison Rae/RockstarSome of Addison Rae’s fan’s think the TikToker-turned-pop star would be perfect choice as a cover girl for GTA 6, and they might be right, but not exactly for the reasons they think. Rae started posting on TikTok in 2019 and since then she’s rocketed to fame with billions of views, a hit single, and even an upcoming movie role. But some of her fans on Twitter think she should break into video games next. That’s right, not content with her conquest of social media, a few stans have started calling for her inclusion on Rockstar’s (hopefully) upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6. Heard some rumours that @whoisaddison will be coming on the cover of next GTA. This girl on cover already looks like her though — Afrasyab (@AfrasyabTareen) June 4, 2021 So, is there any kind of official confirmation from Rockstar or Addison herself on the matter? Nope, none whatsoever from either party. Which isn’t surprising, considering how tight-lipped Rockstar’s been about anything related to GTA 6. All it seems to be at this point is some fans calling for their fav influencer to be included in their favorite video game series, but they might want to be careful what they wish for. That’s because Rockstar loves to lampoon all types of celebrities in their games. Just one example, back when GTA 5 first came out, actress Lindsay Lohan actually sued Rockstar because she claimed they used her likeness in the game without consent. Thanks in part to devs making their characters generic enough to avoid representing or making fun of one person in particular, Lohan lost the lawsuit. But, if 5’s mocking of certain flavors of celebrity is going to continue, it’s very likely stars like Rae who rose to fame through TikTok could find themselves in the crosshairs. Just think about it for a moment — GTA 5 came out in 2013, and it’s fair to say social media, streaming, and online fame in general has gotten so massive since, it makes that game’s jokes on the subject seem tame in comparison. Who’s to say GTA 6 won’t have a side mission where you have to livestream something, or interact with a famous streamer or social media star? There’s no doubt they certainly provide plenty of drama and headlines to draw inspiration from. One thing’s for sure, we’ll just have to wait and find out.

Best GTA RP servers and how to join them – Dexerto
Best GTA RP servers and how to join them Rockstar GamesFor those ready to immerse themselves in the vibrant roleplaying scene of Los Santos, here are the best servers that provide the perfect platform to begin your GTA RP journey. The introduction of NoPixel’s 3.0 update caused a significant spike in interest for Grand Theft Auto RP, attracting both streamers and viewers to Twitch‘s GTA category and maintaining its prominence as one of the top-viewed games of the last 2 years. NoPixel, which is the standout server for GTA RP, has been around for a few years, and each time they drop a major update, players want to get in on the roleplaying action and have a go for themselves. Though, it’s incredibly tough to get a slot. Things have only gotten more interesting now that Rockstar themselves have started ‘supporting’ the FiveM devs that are behind some of the biggest servers. So, if you’re still interested, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best GTA RP servers where you can get in. Eclipse RP Other servers might not have some of NoPixel’s features, but the premise is the same. You drop into GTA V via the FiveM server menu, create a character, and roleplay to your heart’s content. All within the server’s rules, of course. One server that does come close is Eclipse. Just like NoPixel, there are plenty of ways to make money, spend it, and have a fun RP experience. It’s got a massive server capacity, as well as a dedicated forum and Discord so that you can get involved. It’s a simple one to jump into as well, just join the site, Discord, and make yourself known. MafiaCity GTA RP Aside from Eclipse, there is also MafiaCity. This server is, again, roleplay-heavy, but it has some differences from the others. For one, it’s hosted on the Rage mode and not FiveM, so NPCs can be done away with. Plus, there are unlimited possibilities when it comes to roles. You can be a terrible criminal as easily as you can be a police officer or a firefighter. Again, it’s simple to get involved. Just have the Rage mod downloaded, and you can join the server from their website. Though, introduce yourself on the Forum and Discord so you’re not a stranger. GTA World RP Now, if you’re not too comfortable with switching your mic on and acting with others, then GTA World could be the best RP server for you. In terms of top-tier RP’ers, its a little more barebones than the other servers out there, but the roleplaying possibilities are pretty unique, given you have to type out your thoughts rather than chat, The server does offer plenty of content though, as like with others, you can deal with businesses, factions, and customize things to your heart’s content. GTA World is available through Rage too, not FiveM, and like the others has a Forum and Discord to get involved with. New Day RP New Day RP launched back in March of 2021, and has already undergone a 2.0 update as players have been flooding to take a look at the popular new server. Despite being a relatively newer server than some of the others, New Day RP has plenty of the jobs and other features as its peers. It’s also launching into a new whitelisting period until January 8th, meaning that you do have the chance to get involved whereas some others are still closed to new players. Just hop onto the New Day RP forum, sign up, and submit your application to see if you can make the grade to RP with them. LucidCityRP If you’re looking for something that is a little more open and wild, then LucidCity could be an option. Like others, it’s on the FiveM list, and is pretty open to join. The server has a lot of the NoPixel features, plus a few of their own, and even incorporates Cayo Perico from the normal GTA Online mode. Just like the others, you’re best off joining their forum and Discord and introducing yourself before going on a crime spree. NoPixel NoPixel has become the most well-known GTA RP server and has pretty much spearheaded the rise of GTA RP. However, getting accepted into this server is no easy feat. To join this server, you must go through an application process as well as make a donation. With this kind of exclusivity, it’s no wonder why popular streamers like Buddha and xQc are server regulars. Outside of the main server, NoPixel does have public servers, but you’ve got to pay for priority access and character slots. If you do find yourself on the public server, though, you can prove your skills on there to earn a spot on the main server. That’s everything you need to know about the best GTA RP servers and how to join them! There are plenty of other smaller servers too, it’s just about finding the right one. You might run into a few where it’s pretty crazy and no one cares for the rules, so feel free to shop around.

Best GTA games ranked: Definitive Trilogy, Grand Theft Auto 4, and more – Dexerto
Best GTA games ranked: Definitive Trilogy, Grand Theft Auto 4, and more Rockstar GamesAs the world patiently waits for the arrival of Grand Theft Auto 6, we’re revisiting the best GTA games of all time, from the OG days to San Andreas and beyond, with a definitive ranking. The Grand Theft Auto series is one of the most iconic, beloved, and controversial video game franchises of all time, and that means everyone has an opinion on it. As with any huge franchise, one of the biggest ongoing debates is, ‘Which GTA game is best?’ With rumors suggesting that the next installment, GTA 6, is still quite a while away, we decided it’s time to answer the big question once and for all. Join us as we take a trip down memory lane by ranking all of the mainline GTA games from worst to best. 7. Grand Theft Auto The original Grand Theft Auto game may look very different from the modern GTA that gamers know and love, with a basic top-down viewpoint, clunky controls, and a far more linear structure, but it laid the building blocks for the franchise to become the cultural phenomenon that it is today, and it deserves some respect for that alone. All of the basics are there: Stealing cars, going on killing sprees, and running from cops when your notoriety level gets too high. It’s also interesting to compare how much the series’ signature locations – Liberty City, San Andreas, and Vice City – have grown since then. In the light of the modern era, though, its flaws are are just a little too glaring to enjoy. 6. GTA 2 Grand Theft Auto 2 was a sequel that largely delivered more of the same, and like its predecessor, it simply can’t hold a candle to the GTA games that followed. Sure, it’s always fun to drive around the city and leave chaos in your rearview mirror, but the lack of any real narrative or memorable characters means it’s not really worth revisiting. Read More: Everything we know about GTA 6 – Still, it did nudge the franchise towards its zanier side with its retrofuturistic Anywhere City location and improved upon the original with a few significant additions, like garages to modify cars, the ability to save midway through a level, and a respect system that allowed players to show their loyalty to one of three different syndicates by completing jobs for them. 5. GTA 3 GTA 3 marked a turning point in the Grand Theft Auto story, as it finally took the franchise into the 3D era – and what an incredible job it did. GTA 3 offered freedom in a way no game had before, letting players choose between following the main story or getting distracted by tons of side-missions, pulling off the most insane stunts in their vehicles, or simply running over innocent pedestrians to their heart’s content. While it doesn’t hold up quite so well against the more modern entries into the series, it’s impossible to deny GTA 3’s impact on the video game industry, particularly its popularization of the open-world genre. It was also the first GTA experience for many gamers, so it packs a huge amount of nostalgia under the hood and is more than worth a revisit. 4. GTA San Andreas When it was released back in 2004, the sheer size of GTA San Andreas was mind-blowing. The fan-favorite entry into the franchise built upon the already-impressive Vice City by adding more vehicles, improving elements like combat and visuals, and quite simply making everything so much bigger. With three cities to explore and a huge variety of missions to take on, it was easy to sink endless hours into the game. Read More: All cheats for GTA San Andreas – San Andreas found a good balance between gritty realness and silly humor, while CJ remains one of the most memorable protagonists, bringing more complexity to the table than the silent Claude or hardened criminal Tommy Vercetti before him. San Andreas is also notable for embracing RPG elements like driving and stamina stats, as well as the ability to change CJ’s weight by visiting the gym or eating junk food. Oh, and there were jetpacks, too. 3. GTA 4 As the first HD entry into the Grand Theft Auto franchise, GTA 4 helped set the standard for what a modern open-world game could look (and feel) like. It had one of the franchise’s most interesting and well-developed protagonists in Niko, introduced narrative choices that forced players to question their morality, and delivered an incredibly rich portrayal of Liberty City, the game’s take on New York City. The tonal shift didn’t suit everyone, with some players feeling like GTA 4 lacked the franchise’s signature humor and silliness, but props are due to Rockstar for trying something different. This was also balanced out somewhat with two brilliant expansions packs, The Lost And Damned and The Ballad Of Gay Tony, which were far more than just small DLC stories and deserve their own spot in the GTA hall of fame. 2. GTA Vice City Vice City is one of the most iconic video games of all time, and it’s easily the most memorable GTA experience for hardcore fans and casual players alike. It added bags of style to the groundworks laid by GTA 3 before it, with an effortlessly cool 1980s aesthetic and an excellent soundtrack that remains the best of the series (which is no easy achievement). Some of our fondest video game memories involve Vice City, thanks in no small part to the wilder cheats that have since become a staple of GTA games, like codes for flying vehicles and arming hostile pedestrians with weapons. There’s a reason fans are so eager to believe the rumors that GTA 6 will mark a return for this brilliant location: It’s a video game masterpiece. 1. GTA 5 The most recent addition to the Grand Theft Auto pantheon, GTA 5, had some incredibly huge shoes to fill, but it exceeded those expectations and then some. It’s the most ambitious game in the franchise so far, with a seemingly endless amount of content to discover, while technically improving upon its predecessors in almost every way possible, from stunning visuals to solid controls. Whether you want to go scuba diving for shipwrecks, search for UFOs and extraterrestrial lifeforms, parachute through the mountains against the backdrop of a gorgeous sunset, or simply rob a bank and run over innocent pedestrians like the good ol’ GTA days, it’s all available here. The groundbreaking GTA Online, meanwhile, remains one of the best multiplayer sandbox experiences you can find. Eight years on from its initial release, gamers are still regularly diving into GTA V and its addictive Online mode for their Grand Theft Auto fix. It’s hard to imagine how Rockstar is going to top this one.

Best GTA Online heists for cash rewards, ranked – Dexerto
Best GTA Online heists for cash rewards, ranked Rockstar GamesGTA Online’s heists are the big moneymakers for players, but which ones are the most lucrative when it comes to the cash payouts? Well, look no further. [jwplayer M2iRw99J] If you really want to make your mark on Los Santos and GTA Online, you need cash. Cash is king after all, and it’ll open many doors for you and your ever-growing criminal empire. You can simply grind out jobs, sell a business’ stock, or win race after race to make money, but they don’t bring home the big bucks in the same way that heists do. GTA Online’s heists have become legendary thanks to the journey Rockstar Games takes players on in order to make the big money, but what are the best heists to actually do? Well, here, we’ve got the payout for each heist ranked from top to bottom. Diamond Casino Heist The most lucrative heist of the lot in GTA Online is the Diamond Casino Heist. In this job, you are able to ransack the vault of the Diamond Casino and Resort in different ways. The best part is, well, the score changes with each attempt so it doesn’t have to feel like you’re just grinding the same job over and over again. There’s always a different target at the end of the day. The ever-elusive Diamonds bring home the most cash, but after that, it’s all about Gold. Artwork and Cash are also worthwhile to steal, but you want the other two where possible. Doomsday Heists – The Doomsday Scenario & The Bogdan Problem After the Diamond Heist, the Doomsday Heists are the best in terms of rewards. They aren’t as lucrative as robbing the casino, but the payouts will still provide a nice boost to your Maze Bank account. The best of which is the Doomsday Scenario. This pays out around $1,500,000 on hard and $1,200,000 on normal. After that, the Bogdan Problem pays out well too, but there is a drop off from the final mission. Pacific Standard Job After the Doomsday Heists, the only other job that pays out over $1,000,000 is the Pacific Standard job. This is your typical GTA bank heist and was, for the longest time, the best heist in the game. Now, it’s just the daddy of the base heists, and well worth playing if you want some cash. After that, the Humane Labs Raid pays out the best, with the Series A Funding job lagging behind. The other jobs, The Flecca Job and The Prison Break, won’t pay out all that well, but if you’ve never played them, they are worth experiencing at least. An all-new heist is set to launch with GTA Online’s upcoming winter update, and Rockstar could very well raise the bar again and make that the most lucrative job. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Best GTA 5 mods: Cyberpunk map, better graphics, zombies, more – Dexerto
Best GTA 5 mods: Cyberpunk map, better graphics, zombies, more Rockstar GamesGTA 5 is still going strong and Rockstar has continually added new updates that keep the title feeling fresh. However, some of the game’s best additions have been made by the players themselves. Despite releasing in 2013, it’s still one of the most popular games and it shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. After all, GTA 5’s combination of vast cityscapes, luxury cars, deadly weapons, colorful characters, and continuous updates make it incredibly hard to put down. In fact, the recent Cayo Perico Heist has brought even more players back to the crime-infested streets of Los Santos. While Rockstar’s official updates offer plenty of new content to sink our teeth into, there are a number of fan-made mods that also worthy of your time. Whether you’re looking to shake up the way GTA 5 plays, or just wanting to keep things fresh until GTA 6 is released, you’ll want to check out these seven best mods. Vice Cry: Remastered GTA fans have wanted a Vice City to remaster for a while now, but with no official word from Rockstar, many players have simply chosen to bring Vice City to GTA 5. Not only does it faithfully recreate the palm tree-lined streets of Vice City, it also adds completely new features to the iconic Miami based map. Read More: How to free roam Cayo Perico in GTA Online – Whether you’re tearing through Downtown with classic 80s tunes blaring through your car speaker or soaking up the rays on Ocean Beach, there’s something for everyone to enjoy here. NaturalVision This stunningly beautiful mod uses hundreds of photos and video footage to convert GTA 5 into an incredibly realistic portrayal of Southern California. According to the mod’s official page, it took more than a year to develop and had multiple developers all working on it. As a result, GTA 5 has never looked so breathtaking. Significant changes have been made to the game’s weather system, lighting, textures, ambient colors, and weapons. While GTA 5 was never an ugly game, the 2013 title is now showing its age. Fortunately, NaturalVision helps keeps the world of Los Santos looking fresh with each update. Open All Interiors While the GTA series has always enabled players to enter various houses and establishments, many of the game’s buildings can’t actually be accessed. This mod opens up pretty much every interior in the game files, while also including previously cut content. Whether you’re looking to hide from the cops or just wanting to have a nosey inside the various NPC owned buildings, this mod will enable you to do just that. You don’t even need to actively search for each available interior as all of them are marked on the map, enabling you to easily locate them whenever you want. Simply hit F7 to toggle them on or off and get exploring. GrandCyberPunk For many, Cyberpunk 2077 was a major disappointment. Not only did CD Projekt’s latest open-world title fail to live up to the hype, but it also features numerous bugs and incredibly unrealistic clumsy AI. Fortunately, Cyberpunk fans can scratch their sci-fi itch by downloading the GrandCyberPunk mod. This fan-made project has painstakingly overhauled Downtown, Legion Square, Textile City, Mission Row, and Little Seoul. Each area is oozing with floods of neon lights and futuristic buildings, making it one of the most ambitious mods on the list. When you combine this map overhaul with Cyberpunk 2077’s iconic Quadra V-Tech car and cybernetic-inspired outfits, you’ll have an experience that is similar to that of Night City. Map Editor Have you ever wanted to create your own custom maps or adjust the look of Los Santos completely? If you have, then GTA 5’s map editor will enable you to do just that. When this mod is activated, you’ll be able to navigate around the map in freecam. As the name suggests, Map Editor enables you to spawn objects, adjust building positions, change colors, delete, and copy items to your heart’s delight. The Map Editor mod enables you to save and load numerous map creations, so don’t be afraid to let your imagination run wild. If you wish to revert back to the original game or simply want to delete your custom map, then simply use the New Map function to wipe the canvas clean. Simple Zombies Simple Zombies completely changes the way GTA 5 plays, turning the action-adventure game into a grueling survival simulator. If you’re a fan of games like DayZ and Rust, then you’ll be familiar with the mechanics present in this mod. Blaine County and Los Santos have been hit by hordes of flesh-eating zombies, so you’ll need your wits about you if wish to avoid a grizzly death. You’ll need to search for food and supplies, while also fighting off fellow survivors and the nightmarish undead. Fortunately, NPCs can also be recruited and bases can be built. It’s here where you can manage your loot, build barricades, and give allied characters commands. This mod may be one of the older additions on this list, but it is still a good one for those that want a challenge. GTA 5 – The Spider-Man mod Given the sheer amount of crime that constantly takes place within GTA 5, it was only a matter of time before the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man showed his face. Web swinging through the streets of Downtown Los Santos and tying up enemy thugs is as fun as it is satisfying. This mod gives you enhanced movement speed, unique melee combos, and the ability to stick vehicles and people to nearby walls. Vehicles can even be swung around and launched into nearby objects, enabling you to take down nearby helicopters. GTA 5’s Spider-Man mod may not be for everyone, but it certainly adds a unique way to experience the game. Hulk Smash When it comes to raw destructive power, nothing rivals that of Bruce Banner’s alter ego — the Hulk. This mod gives you the power to leap miles up in the sky and cover vast distances in no time. It also goes without saying, but you can also decide to wreck havoc around the city of Los Santos if you wish. For a truly enjoyable time, wait for the cops and military to arrive. That’s when the true “Hulk experience” begins. GTA Realism If you’ve been searching for the most realistic GTA 5 experience possible, then look no further. The GTA 5 realism mod turns the city of Los Santos into a real-life, crime infested playground. For starters, weapons must be picked up and you must manage weight and ammo, textures look more crisp and realistic than ever, and there are bleeding effects when you’ve been shot. Read More: Everything we know about GTA 6 – This is just the surface of what this mod has to offer and it’s definitely worth a try. So, there you have it – 9 of the best GTA 5 mods you can download and play right now. Be sure to follow @GTA_INTEL for all the latest news and updates.

Baldur’s Gate 3 dev convinced GTA 6 will change how games are priced – Dexerto
Baldur’s Gate 3 dev convinced GTA 6 will change how games are priced Pixabay/Rockstar GamesGTA 6 could be more expensive than every other AAA game on the market when it releases according to Baldur’s Gate 3’s Director of Publishing. Grand Theft Auto fans across the globe are patiently waiting for Rockstar to reveal more info about GTA 6 ahead of its planned launch in Fall 2025, including how much it will cost. There has been a lot of discussion about the game’s pricing, with some rumors even suggesting GTA VI will retail for a whopping $150, more than double the price of a standard AAA game at $69.99. It turns out, players aren’t the only ones who suspect GTA 6 will be more expensive. Michael Douse, the Director of Publishing for Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian Studios, Rockstar could set a new industry trend with how it prices the next Grand Theft Auto. In a post on X, Douse criticized how Ubisoft priced Star Wars Outlaws with numerous editions writing, “I don’t love the artificiality of pricing structures post retail. Use the inflated base price to upsell a subscription, and use vague content promises to inflate ultimate editions to make the base price look better. It all seems a bit dangerous and disconnected from the community.” According to Douse, games should be priced based on their “quality, breadth & depth,” but noted that all titles should actually cost more because of how much money goes into making them. “Almost all games should cost more at a base level because the cost of making them (inflation, for one) is outpacing pricing trends. But I don’t think we’ll get there with DLC promises so much as quality and communication. Everyone’s just waiting for GTA 6 to do it.” Almost all games should cost more at a base level because the cost of making them (inflation, for one) is outpacing pricing trends. But I don’t think we’ll get there with DLC promises so much as quality & communication. Everyone’s just waiting for GTA6 to do it lol. — Very AFK (@Cromwelp) August 26, 2024 Whether or not Rockstar decides to pull the trigger on selling GTA 6 for more than the average AAA game remains to be seen. The CEO of Rockstar’s parent company briefly touched on pricing in a 2024 interview. “We’re so focused on delivering more value than what we charge. And that’s the sort of rubric. And any time we establish a price, we want to make sure that it’s good news for the consumer; that the experience vastly over-delivers in the context of the cost. That’s the goal,” Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick said. Only time will tell how GTA 6 is priced, but with the game’s release window still set for Fall 2025, fans may not have long to wait until pre-orders become available. A second trailer is also rumored to debut before the end of 2024, which could include not just the pricing, but a more concrete release date.

Best cheap cars to customize in GTA Online 2024 – Dexerto
Best cheap cars to customize in GTA Online 2024 Rockstar GamesFor those looking at buying the best cheap, highly customizable cars in GTA Online, we’ve put them all in one place for you. With GTA 6 still a year away, GTA Online is still just as strong as ever in 2024. And to get around Los Santos, you’re going to want to pimp your ride at a price that is affordable. If you’re one of those people that’s looking for something that can be turned into something very bespoke, but don’t want to shell out hundreds of thousands on a set of wheels from Legendary Motorsport, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve curated a list of cars you can customize in GTA Online, with all cars being under $120,000. Some of the most customizable cars in GTA Online can be seen driving right past you on the road. We can all spend hours on the actual design of our rides, but before all of that, you’re going to have to get a car. As brutal as it may sound, with many of these cars you can simply drag somebody out of them when you spot them in GTA Online, take it to Los Santos Customs, grab yourself some insurance coverage, and claim it as your own. Yet, nobody wants to waste time by doing all of that, only to be rejected at the doors of the mod shop with a “too hot to modify” notification. Not every car can be insured on the streets and not all of them are super customizable, so let’s look at the best ones that are available on the streets, and the cheapest versatile cars to buy. Sabre Turbo Value: $15,000 This muscle car might well be one of the most popular models of the Declasse range, and unlike many others that can be found in GTA Online, it has a whole bunch of unique things that can be changed. For example, not every car enables players to access features such as a chin spoiler, as well as the option to have the engine popping right out of the hood – like a Triple Intake Bug Catcher. The Sabre Turbo is one of the select few vehicles that can also be modified in not only Los Santos Customs, but also Benny’s Original Motor Works. This makes it a great cheap option for your car in GTA Online. Where to find Benny’s Original Motor Works in GTA Online: While Benny’s stuff might be more expensive to buy, with a $375,000 charge to access the high-end specs, it goes without saying that having a car that’s accepted at this particular mod shop is a massive bonus for those who like to mod their cars. You might roll in with a muscle car, but could be driving out with something very, very different – both inside and out. Sultan Value: $12,000 Many fans of the GTA franchise will be very much aware of the Sultan RS from previous titles, and with the right stuff purchased from Los Santos Customs, this Sultan could be a blast from the past. There are a number of different stickers, sprays, and customizable parts that can be attached to this vehicle – which is very much a hybrid between the original Lexus IS and the Subaru Impreza. For a car that you can pick up right from the road, a few upgrades down the line and this will be faster than most cars you can find using the in-game mobile store. Rat-Truck Value: $37,500 If you’re looking for something a little different from what your friends are cruising around in, there’s no doubt that taking the Rat Truck into the mod shop opens up a whole new world of opportunities. You can strip this thing down to its frame and not much else – if you decide to. Unlike other cars on this list, though, the Rat-Truck – which can be turned into a Rat Rod with the right spec – can’t be insured by just stealing it off the streets. Instead, it will set you back just $37,500 from Southern San Andreas Super Autos. If you’re not looking to spend that much, maybe the upgrading cars game is not for you. Futo Value: $9,000 The Futo might look like something from the early 2000s when it glides past you on the streets of Los Santos, but don’t judge a book by its cover. For some reason, this vehicle has a whole load of insane spoilers, colored wraps, and other bespoke features that allow you to really make this something that other players might not have seen before in GTA Online. The best part about it, too, is that you can pick it up right from the streets and claim it as your own. Elegy RH8 Value: $95,000 People always say that things in life are better when they’re free, and look no further than the Elegy RH8 to prove that to be the case. This vehicle is actually a free purchase for all GTA Online players and can be ordered as soon as you get past the online tutorial. In order to get one for nothing, all you have to do is link up your Rockstar Social Club account to your gamertag, and away you go. With an unbelievable selection of customizable parts and unique sticker designs, this car can be transformed into a modern-day drag racer or something more sporty with just a few edits to its design. Sentinel XS Value: $60,000 This car can be picked up by GTA Online players in two ways, firstly with the traditional Grand Theft Auto method of grabbing one off the streets, or secondly, buying it from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $60,000 – not too expensive. It doesn’t take a genius to see that it’s inspired by the BMW M5 and with a plethora of changes made available at Los Santos Customs for this vehicle, you could turn it into a proper racer in no time. It has great handling, too, which is a nice bonus to have. Vulcan Warrener Value: $120,000 Finally, to round off our list is one that can’t actually be picked up off the streets, but it is a really reasonable price nonetheless! The Vulcan Warrener is a four-door sedan and it’s fair to say that flashy isn’t its middle name. In fact, it looks rather like a 1960’s-70’s Saab 99, or even the original Toyota Corolla KE70. However, don’t let first impressions put you off, as this is one of the most fun set of wheels to customize in the entire game! Costing just $120,000 in-game, which is a drop in the ocean for those that have been racking up the $1 million rewards of late, it can be purchased from Southern San Andreas Super Autos. If you want to be a star in a reasonably priced car, this one might be the pick for you! Pfister Comet Value: $100,000 The Pfister Comet is a very fashionable sports vehicle that you can personalize to your heart’s content. Based off of the Porsche 911, Comet is a recurring vehicle that has been there in the Grand Theft Auto series since Vice City. For a mere $100,000, you can get the Comet from Benny’s Original Motor Works and Legendary Motorsports which has a top speed of 119.50 MPH. Bravado Banshee Value: $105,000 One of the longest-running sports vehicles in the Grand Theft Auto series, along with the Infernus, is the Banshee, a recurrent mid-sized sports car that has appeared in every GTA game since Grand Theft Auto III. In GTA Online, the Banshee is among the most customizable vehicles. With HSW performance upgrades installed, it can reach a maximum speed of 246 km/h. However, it is important to remember that you will have to shell out an additional $1,840,000 to unlock the HSW upgrades. So, there we have it. This selection of cars can mostly be found by taking them from civilians and claiming them as your own in a mod shop, otherwise, they’re very cheap to pick up anyway.
