GTA 5 was launched in the year 2013. The popularity of GTA 5 kept growing with time and it went on to emerge as one of the most successful gaming titles of all time. Since Rockstar Games has confirmed that GTA 6 will release in the fall of 2025, one can assume that the game would, indeed, be hitting the stores this year. The wait for a new GTA game, therefore, has been more than 10 years.
The long wait for GTA 6 has led to several questions popping up in the minds of the fans of the franchise. One of the questions floating through their mind is whether they would have to wait for another decade to witness the release of another GTA game. The gap between GTA 4, which came out in 2008, and GTA 5 was much shorter.
