Jason Schreier confirms that Rockstar has been working on the GTA 6 map since 2015 (11 years).
Can’t wait to get lost in this map and explore it for years to come.
He also revealed more information:
- Developers are given the creative freedom to add new features and details, to the point where, according to Aaron Garbut, no single person on the team knows everything that’s in the game
- An Example of the creative freedom is the dynamic horse testicles affected by the weather in RDR2, which was added by a developer who had extra time
- Rockstar spent years trying to scrap and replace the weapons wheel with a new system, but they eventually kept it
- Rockstar’s Head of Publishing Jennifer Kolbe teared up after watching the Extended Look for the first time
- RDR2’s greet/antagonize system almost didn’t make it. Phil Hooker didn’t want it, then it was demonstrated to Rob Nelson who thought it was incredible
- The art production team increased from just 6 people when GTA5 launched to 65 people now

The greet/antagonize system almost didn't make it is insane — that mechanic alone made RDR2 feel alive. Glad it survived for VI.

Around the time of GTA 6's release, a young man jumped over the wall of a military barracks in Brazil and stole a 7.62 rifle, and now the entire army in the region is searching for him. He activated 5-star mode in real life.

I knew that they had been developing the game since 2015, not 2018. Hence why the map will be much bigger
