GTA 6 Release Date, Latest News: Eva Mendes Could Be Female Lead, Gamers Take Control of Cop
There has been no official announcement about the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 but there are some fans who are expecting a female lead character this time and none other than Eva Mendes is rumoured to be the voice actor for this ground-breaking protagonist. Ryan Gosling is said to be featured as another character and the surprise element of GTA 6 is that players can be a cop!
The success of the "Grand Theft Auto" series has put enormous pressure to bring out GTA 6 fast. In recent times, GTA Online was the immediate focus for Rockstar Games. Before that, it was the massive launch of "Grand Theft Auto V."
It is rumoured that Rockstar Studios is already considering the feasible scenarios for GTA 6 and a female lead character could be on top of the list. Rockstar president Leslie Benzies says, "We don't know what GTA 6 will be, but we've got some ideas." They have also revealed that they would like to make a GTA Game with all the cities featured in the past games to be in this one grand game.
Benzies said, "Of course at some point we would like to have one big world containing all our cities and let the player fly between them and revisit their favorite areas. In that context, re-imagining Vice City would be very interesting."
Of course, one of the more interesting speculations is of the game possibly having a super female protagonist in the future. There have been steady rumours that Eva Mendes could be the voice actor for the new female protagonist. It may also be possible that Ryan Gosling would also join the voice cast as another protagonist. He could play a descendant of John Marston, who was the protagonist in "Red Dead Redemption." This will allow Rockstar Games to fuse characters of GTA and Red Dead Redemption.
The other exciting rumour is that GTA 6 might have a feature where players can choose to play as a "cop" character instead of a baddie. This would surely be great as many fans have been requesting for this feature for a long time.
The release date of GTA 6 could be anytime from 2018 to 2020. Till then, stay tuned for more news and updates of GTA 6.
