When the Rockstar logo appeared in the center of the screen during the PlayStation 5 game show event last month, everyone was silent and heartbeat started and a storm of wondering began circulating in the head of everyone watching the event, would Rockstar do it and reveal GTA 6? All these questions happened in a fraction of a second until we found out the truth that everyone now knows about. GTA5 will be back again with a new launch on the next generation for the third time in a row.
But the question remains unanswered, where is GTA 6? We learned through a report published by the Kotaku website through the famous journalist Jason Schreyer, who knew the accuracy of the information he shares with the public that the game is according to what he learned through some developers who work for Rockstar that the game is still in the early stages of development and there is still a lot of time to be done Disclosed.
This matter extinguished the fire of leaks, rumors, and even the hopes of the anticipated game fans, who are waiting for the game to be announced at any time of this year, especially since more than 7 years have passed since the launch of the fifth part, and this is the time to reveal the new part of the series, but unfortunately this will not Happen or occur.
On the one hand, but on the other hand, I clearly noticed the growing relationship between Sony Rockstar in recent years, and we witnessed joint marketing of the game Red Dead Redemption 2, which provided exclusive content to PlayStation 4 owners, and then this cooperation began to extend to the GTA 5 game, which provided exclusive content on platforms Sony was the latest one to get 1 million of the game currency every month in exchange for entering the online mode in the game from the PlayStation 4 only, and this offer continues until after the middle of next year 2021, the date of the launch of the enhanced version for the new generation.
As for the greater cooperation, it was through announcing the exclusivity of GTA Online with the improved version on the PlayStation 5 for a period of 3 months from its launch next year, and this is a big and bold step on the part of both parties, but it may be an introduction to a bigger plan that Sony is going on in the future of its relations with third-party companies.
Is Sony doing it and acquiring the GTA 6 exclusivity, even temporarily, on its PlayStation 5? This matter is not excluded now, especially with the growing relationship between Sony and Rockstar in recent years and the two parties' reliance on joint marketing during that period, and this makes us not rule out that there will be joint cooperation with the launch of GTA 6 when it happens at some point in the future.
Rockstar may have preferred to postpone the game and not disclose it soon until the PlayStation 5 could spread and become fertile ground for pushing sales of its new game, especially since expectations speak that the device will achieve huge sales and outperform not only competition in the market, but also surpass the sales of the current generation.
On the one hand, and on the other hand, many rumors have spread that Sony has a well-thought-out secret plan through which it wants to obtain a lot of exclusive content during the new generation of third-party companies. The features of this trend have begun to appear with the acquisition of Spiderman as an exclusive character in Marvel's Avengers game, which has caused great controversy in the past few days, and there is also talk about the exclusivity of the game Silent Hill on the Playstation 5, where Sony was able to acquire the rights to develop the game in cooperation with Konami, and it will be announced soon (the news has not been confirmed. Official as of the moment this report is published)
Recently, one of the leakers said that Sony still has a lot of titles and content that you will get exclusively from the third party, and there are ads that may shock a lot when they are revealed in the future.
If we combine this new trend from Sony by approaching third-party companies and obtaining exclusive content or titles, even if only temporarily, with the relationship that has grown between Sony and Rockstar clearly with its acquisition of large exclusive content, this makes me not rule out that Sony will succeed in obtaining exclusive, even temporary. For the GTA 6 game on the PlayStation 5, I know that it may be difficult for some to accept, but the new direction for companies after the shock that the world economy was exposed to due to the Corona pandemic and the alliances that began to form between companies in order to get out of this economic shock, I think that Rockstar will not find Its ally is better than Sony during the next stage.
In the end, this information and expectations are the diligence of me through my follow-up of developments in the world of video games and the new trends that companies are starting to pursue in order to make their way in this environment, which is now more difficult than ever and may affect or not.
