Additionally, around September 2022, over 90 videos were leaked online showcasing the GTA 6 engine, planned setting, and early iterations of gameplay. The footage also provided an extended look at robberies, NPC interactions, vehicles, and more from its sprawling sandbox.

All these reports indicate that GTA 6 announcement could happen sooner than later. That said, all these reports are speculative, and the company has not confirmed GTA 6 officially yet. However, if all goes well, we should hear more about the game soon.
