In another report, gaming analyst Michael Pachter recently talked about GTA 6. He is the managing director of equity research at Wedbush Securities.

Pachter mentioned that GTA 6 could take up to 10 years for its eventual release. And he had some valid reasons to say that, according to his own understanding of the entire situation.

“The reason is, my understanding is, it is a mash-up of Vice City, San Andreas, Liberty City (so GTA III), and Europe, London for sure.”

Speaking of the total time for its development, then it’s understandable, given that it’s been in the works since the period between 2014 and 2015. And this, in a way, implies that the rumored launch window of 2024, so far, might turn out to be true.

Additionally, Pachter also stated that the sixth installment will give nearly 400 or 500 hours of gameplay experience to the players.
