Ex-Rockstar dev confirms GTA 6 started development in 2018; fans say 'It's been worth the wait'

Time of India11-05-2025
The most-awaited second trailer of GTA 6, a.k.a. Grand Theft Auto VI, has finally been launched by Rockstar Games after months of maintaining silence over any update.
Amid this, a new thread on Reddit has garnered the massive attention of users on the platform, which claims that an ex-Rockstar developer has confirmed that GTA 6 started its development in 2018.
The former Rockstar Games 3d environment artist who worked on Grand Theft Auto 6 has confirmed it's been in development since at least 2018 while reacting to the game's second trailer.
GTA 6 has been working on the game for about seven years now
Since when Rockstar has been working on the game was also a question in fans' minds, but it seems all the rumours and speculations are clear now.
If we look around at the theories and delirium about when we might finally receive a second trailer for the game, we'll have to agree that how wrong it was all, and it is way bigger than it may look.
Additionally, a Twitter user pointed out that former Rockstar North environment artist David O'Reilly, whose YouTube name is 'Game World Art', was on the project up until 2023. He also noted that the development started "after we wrapped up on RDR2", reported The Gamer.
"I worked on GTA 6 from 2018 to 2023. Went onto it after we wrapped up on RDR2. It's fascinating having a look at all this stuff. - David O'Reilly," he quoted.
Fans react to the 2018 development of GTA 6
As soon as this update surfaced on Reddit, fans quickly started discussing it. One wrote, "People like to fantasise that the game has been in development since 2013. Yes, the concepts and writing, but full-scale actual development would've started around the time RDR2 was coming out."
"I was not bothered by the first trailer but after 2 it's all I can think about. I can not believe there's another year to go.😭"
"They still delivered some pretty fire online dlcs like cayo perico before they dropped the ball in 2022."

She's pink, has scuffs on face & eats popcorn chicken: Labubu doll goes missing in US city; woman offers cash & a poem

A San Francisco woman launched a desperate (and hilarious) search for her beloved pink Labubu doll "Lychee Berry" after losing it during a tipsy night out in the Castro. A now-viral missing poster features photos of Lychee Berry living its best life, posing among roses and munching on popcorn chicken like a fuzzy pink VIP. The woman last saw her ugly-cute companion on May 29, around 8-9 pm at The Mix in the Castro, according to the flyer. Special markings? Some scuffs on Lychee Berry's face—battle scars from a life of adventure. "I took her out for a night of drinking and now I regret getting too lit," the Labubu owner confessed on Reddit, adding she was offering $50 cash, one lottery ticket, and a handwritten poem to anyone who could reunite her with her tiny sidekick. "Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart!" she pleaded on the poster. Contact info on the flyer included an email, a phone number, and even a QR code for tips, in a rescue effort worthy of a missing pet—because, let's be honest, Labubus are family. While some Reddit users were sympathetic, others gave her a gentle ribbing: "It's probably in Oakland by now being sold for parts," joked one. "Just buy another one," shrugged another, clearly unfamiliar with the irreplaceable bond between a human and their gremlin-esque collectable. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is this legal?

"While OG Lychee is irreplaceable, I will hold on to Lychee Berry II tightly and take her on new adventures," the grateful owner wrote. "I am so grateful."

I believe you may have already done the Heritage Walk in the old city - if not, do try it with your family on a Sunday morning. There's also a newly formed creative group called Kirdar Creative Club, where they host movie screenings, open mics, jam sessions, and more," said a user.
