GTA Actor Comments on GTA 6
Grand Theft Auto 5 actor Jay Klaitz has shared that he “wouldn’t be surprised” if the satire in Grand Theft Auto 6 would not hit as arduous due to “what we see happening in the real world.”
The performer behind heist mastermind Lester Crest gave his ideas on the following Rockstar Games title in an interview with eldorado. When requested about how GTA can strategy humor given the state of the world, Klaitz mentioned he might see its influence not hitting fairly the identical as many could anticipate.
“Don’t get me wrong. It’s still f**king GTA,” I clarified. “It’s going to be massive. People will lose their shit. It’s going to be huge, obviously. But it’s a different world to the one 13 years ago when the last one came out. I mean, it’s a very different world than it was even a year ago.”
The Rockstar tone crafted by way of every GTA sport helped rework it into the juggernaut it’s in the present day. In IGN’s personal 10/10 review of GTA 5we referred to as consideration to the way it “drips satire” by ripping into “the Millennial generation, celebrities, the far right, the far left, the middle class, the media,” and every thing in between.
That, nevertheless, was in 2013, and so long as every thing goes in accordance with plan, GTA 6 is ready to launch November 16, 2026. Klaitz shunned talking too straight about what has modified within the greater than a decade because the launch of the final mainline sport, and admitted that there’s nonetheless lots to dig into.
“What seemed so far-fetched and insane just a short while ago now feels like just another day, so maybe GTA 6 can’t make that same splash as previous games. That said, I don’t know. Maybe that’s bulls**t. I know there will be plenty of commentary and satire woven into it. There’s a lot of the Florida Man stuff and lots of territory like that still to cover.
“The political highlight typically sees over towards Florida, and perhaps for that cause, it’s going to nonetheless sink its hooks into folks, however what we see occurring in the true world is certainly going to make it troublesome for a GTA sport to work these angles.”
While some hope to see Rockstar stick the touchdown with GTA 6, others are a bit extra involved with a third-party data breach that passed off final week. Despite ransom demandsthe corporate has assured gamers that the “incident has no impact on our organization or our players.”
