Going by what Pachter said, GTA 6 has been in the making since the period between 2014 and 2015. That’s quite a long duration, but given that the project’s scale is massive, it’s understandable.

Moreover, GTA 6 will reportedly have nearly 500 hours of duration for the players who will enter its story. Plus, it will comprise various map locations, brought from the likes of previous titles in the franchise.

In the words of Pachter, himself, the game will be a “mash-up of Vice City, San Andreas, Liberty City (so GTA III), and Europe, London for sure.”

Simply put, players will be able to go anywhere they want “on those continents and you’re going to have missions that take you all those places.”
