GTA 6is coming, it’s official, it’s happening. Which means a whole new story to lose ourselves in, a whole new open-world sandbox to explore, a whole new yardstick to compare the third-person-shooter-meets-crime simulator genre against, and a whole new shopping list of virtual crimes to commit in chaotic and explosive style.
The firstGTA 6 traileroffered a scant glimpse at all of the above throughout its modest 91-second runtime, and while there’s already loads to speculate about, we’re sure to have more questions (and hopefullysomeanswers) with whatever Rockstar decides to show us next in the coming weeks and months.
The in-game stunt scene
Welcome to Grand Theft Advent – a month-long celebration of Rockstar’s enduring crime sim series. Be sure to check in on ourGTA 6 coverage hubfor more every day throughout December.
Away from the chaos and carnage of the average GTA Online session, one thing that’s thoroughly impressed me over the years is the Grand Theft Auto stunting community. Over the last decade, these adventurous adrenaline addicts see the Los Santos sprawl differently from you and me. Where we see a ramp, they see a springboard. Where we see an archway, they see a challenge. Where we see tarmac and airspace, they see a blank canvas upon which to work their magic – the best stunt performers in GTA 5 and GTA Online really are artistic magicians. If you’re familiar with my ramblings here at GamesRadar+, you may already knowmy favorite GTA stunt performer is Ash Skyqueen– a skydiving expert whose airborne acrobatics never fail to stun and amaze.
With the promise of a new playground, filled with platforms and pitfalls ripe for pushing the laws of physics to their limit, I can’t wait to see what GTA 6 holds for the Grand Theft Auto stunt scene; and I hope some of those who’ve retired along the way return to remind us how it’s done.
