The anticipation surrounding GTA 6 has reached unprecedented levels since its announcement, with years of rumors and analysis surrounding its trailers (recently released) fueling the excitement of the gaming community. Although the release date is set for May 26, 2026, concerns about possible delays persist. The development of a video game of this nature is remarkably complex, and it would not be the first time a blockbuster extends beyond the expected timeline to ensure a polished release.
More projects on the horizon for the company
Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, has expressed his confidence that GTA 6 will meet expectations, despite his focus on not inflating them excessively. During an interview on CNBC, Zelnick stated: “My level of conviction is very, very high, but we all have to work. We have to deliver something excellent to consumers, and then they will tell us how good it is. This stance aligns with Rockstar’s track record, which has shown that delays can result in more polished final products.
In addition to GTA 6, Zelnick mentioned that Rockstar has multiple projects underway. Among them is the remake of Max Payne 1 and 2, developed in collaboration with Remedy. There are also rumors about a port of GTA 4 for next-generation consoles, as well as updates for GTA Online and Red Dead Redemption 2. Information has leaked about a possible dedicated version of Red Dead Redemption 2 for Switch 2 and new updates for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Rumors suggest that, while the development of GTA 6 progresses, Rockstar may be in the early stages of conceptualization for Red Dead 3. The iconic nature of the franchise and Rockstar’s philosophy, which resembles an onion with multiple layers, indicate that GTA 6 will be a resounding sales success, potentially ranking among the top three in history in its first months of release.
The Rockstar Games Social Club, launched in 2008 in conjunction with Grand Theft Auto IV, has suddenly ceased to function, redirecting its main URL to the official Rockstar Games portal. For over 15 years, this platform became an iconic tool for players, offering advantages such as the synchronization of statistics and the acquisition of exclusive items in GTA Online for those who registered. However, recent information suggests that the platform had become obsolete and vulnerable to security issues. It bids farewell to the Social Club forever The insider known as @videotechuk_ has […]
The Rockstar Games Social Club, launched in 2008 in conjunction with Grand Theft Auto IV, has suddenly ceased to function, redirecting its main URL to the official Rockstar Games portal. For over 15 years, this platform became an iconic tool for players, offering advantages such as the synchronization of statistics and the acquisition of exclusive items in GTA Online for those who registered. However, recent information suggests that the platform had become outdated and vulnerable to security issues.
Says goodbye to the Social Club forever
The insider known as @videotechuk_ has pointed out that the decision to close the Social Club is due to multiple issues, including the hijacking of “crews” and the ease with which accounts were compromised. This situation raised doubts about the platform’s ability to provide a safe and satisfactory experience for its users. Therefore, the closure does not surprise many, as complaints about its outdatedness were becoming increasingly frequent among the gaming community.
In addition, an update made on November 20, 2023, had begun to remove almost all mentions of the Social Club in Rockstar titles, indicating a gradual decline in its relevance. All of this has led to speculation about whether the company might be working on a new platform that would be launched alongside the highly anticipated GTA 6. According to the insider, “it is very likely that juicy changes are coming for the sixth installment of the saga,” which has excited fans of the series.
With the closure of the Social Club, players can no longer access their profiles, photos, and videos, marking the end of an era in the history of Rockstar Games. The focus now shifts to what innovations and features they will be able to present in the future, especially with the imminent release of GTA 6.
Rockstar Games, as a company, is a behemoth. With over 2,000 employees and more than 26 years of history, it’s impossible not to have sweet memories playing some of their games. Some of them, not being any installment of GTA. That is why GTA VI is so highly anticipated: they have consistently delivered high-quality games that have revolutionized, in one way or another, the medium of video games. But that doesn’t mean the wait is going to be any shorter. So much so that rumors keep emerging that Rockstar could give us the remaster […]

That’s why GTA VI is so highly anticipated: they have consistently delivered high-quality games that have revolutionized, in one way or another, the medium of video games. But that doesn’t mean the wait is going to be any shorter.
So much so that rumors keep emerging that Rockstar could give us the remaster of one of its games before the release of GTA VI. Although people don’t seem to agree on where the clues point or what they want. That’s why we are going to provide you with a list of six games that could be remastered and could be an immediate and resounding success. Although at least one of them has some clues suggesting it could be more true than you imagine.
GTA 6 is the new installment of the action-adventure sandbox in an open world by Rockstar Games. Wrapped in expectation and mystery, the sixth Grand Theft Auto marks the return of this legendary franchise 10 years after GTA 5 was released. Although little has been confirmed about the gameplay or the release date of this new GTA, everything seems to indicate that we are facing what will be the most expensive game in history. Still, with each passing day, new rumors and juicy leaks are coming to delight the entire gaming community. Would you like to know more? This is everything we know about GTA VI to date.
Bully
Published in 2006, this action adventure is basically the GTA of going to school. We are a kid who is accused of crimes he may or may not have committed and is sent to a boarding school where he will have to rise through the ranks of the different social groups that fill the place, such as the nerds, the bullies, or the athletes. Basically GTA, but without killing anyone and without committing any kind of crime that could land us in jail, it is one of the most unique and interesting games from Rockstar for how it manages to offer a different perspective on what they are known for. One of those games that, if you have never played it, you should go play right now.
Manhunt
Rockstar Games during the PlayStation 2 decided to experiment with stealth games in their own way. This resulted in one of the most unique and misunderstood games of its generation: Manhunt. Even today, it is still not very well understood what it intended. Absolutely brilliant in how it blended its mechanics and narrative in a tremendously hostile game for the player, it is a masterpiece that did not suffer with its second installment. A marvel that is doubtful would be better received today than at the time, but it deserves all the honors.
Los Guerreros
Walter Hill’s film is a cult classic and not without good reason. It is an excellent movie, based on an absolutely fascinating novel by Sol Yurick, which has a very video game-like premise: a gang must travel from one end of New York to the other while all the gangs in the city want to kill them. And Rockstar shows that, indeed, it lends itself to a video game almost as good as the movie in one of the cult classics of the second PlayStation. One that fans are already asking to be remastered.
Midnight Club: Los Angeles
Although it may seem that driving games are no longer as popular among the general public, that doesn’t mean they can’t make a comeback. Especially if the indicated franchises return. One of those franchises is Midnight Club, which reached its peak with Midnight Club: Los Angeles, a fantastic open-world driving game with day and night cycles, licensed vehicles, and realistic traffic. The dream of any GTA fan who wants more realism in their games and could very well bring it back.
Oni
Probably the most unique game on the list, although it’s a bit of a cheat: Rockstar published the game, but it was developed by Bungie. Heavily inspired by Ghost in the Shell and Akira, it is a fascinating third-person shooter with a strong anime aesthetic that, even more today than at the time, could be a hit with the audience. By making its aesthetic cel shading and looking like a real anime, we would have everything we need.
GTA 4
This is the game that everyone is pointing to as potentially getting a remaster. And we’re not surprised. GTA 4 is one of the most beloved GTAs and there are plenty of reasons for that. Niko Bellic is a protagonist with whom it is easy to empathize, his story is probably the best ever told in a GTA, and the supporting cast and mechanics have yet to be surpassed by Rockstar. A remake would be absolutely incredible news, especially if it includes its two DLCs: The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. Because if they do, we would be talking about the remaster of one of the best games of its generation. And perhaps the best game in Rockstar’s history, which GTA 6 will have to measure up to.

Video games have shown that they can succeed in traditional media, particularly on television. Although cinema still resists them, surely due to the rigidity of its production structures, they have demonstrated that they can tell fascinating stories that capture the hearts and minds of people through the small screen. Because some of the best current series are adaptations of video games. The second season of The Last of Us is breaking the records set by the first. The second season of Fallout is causing a stir like few times we have seen. And that makes us […]
Video games have shown that they can succeed in traditional media. Particularly on television. Although cinema still resists them, surely due to the rigidity of its production structures, they have demonstrated that they can tell fascinating stories that capture the hearts and minds of people through the small screen. Because some of the best current series are adaptations of video games.
The second season of The Last of Us is breaking the records set by the first. The second season of Fallout is causing a stir like we haven’t seen in a long time. And that makes us wonder, what other video games could be adapted to the television format? And that’s what we’re going to answer in this list that will give you some unexpected surprises.
The gates of hell have opened. Only one man can stop the invasion. And from there, an absolutely fascinating story can be built with all the lore we have gathered over three decades of the best FPS ever created: Doom. It would be an extremely violent series and may seem brainless, but after Doom Eternal, it is clear that there are stories to tell from both humans and demons, their hierarchies, and their lives outside of Doom Guy. And it could lead to very, very interesting stories.
GTA 4
Niko Bellic is one of the most interesting protagonists in video game history. Just for that, it is already possible to build an entire series around him. But also, with his story and the characters surrounding him and all the things that happen to him, we could have the new The Wire by adapting this masterpiece from Rockstar with a bit of good taste and a sufficient budget.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
The most recent game on this list, for many people, would work better as a series than as a video game. And we don’t blame them. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 can be a bit obtuse at times, but if anything is clear, it’s that its premise is fascinating and its world has much more potential to develop beyond what the video game does. Its own series could be a captivating fantasy story that a network like HBO would kill to sign.
Final Fantasy XVI
But speaking of HBO and fantasy, let’s not kid ourselves. Final Fantasy XVI has been systematically compared to Game of Thrones, and that invites us to think about the obvious, how great a Final Fantasy XVI series would be! Many people have issues with the game, particularly with its side quests and combat system, but the charisma of its characters and the depth of its story are undeniable. Something that could be perfectly exploited in a series that could build all of that in a masterful way.
Sleeping Dogs
Undercover cop stories always work, and Sleeping Dogs is not just that, but also the best GTA-style game that isn’t a GTA. A Sleeping Dogs series, with the same stylized lighting and focus on martial arts as the game, could work wonders. Something we can’t rule out, as Donnie Yen is very interested in making that happen.
El Paso Elsewhere
The least known game on this list is also one of the most fascinating. This game by Strange Scaffold puts us in the shoes of a vampire hunter who must kill his ex-girlfriend before she brings about the end of the world. But everything takes place in a motel where space and time have been distorted to shape the memories of those inside. The vampire hunter is a drug addict in rehabilitation. And his ex-girlfriend is Draculae, Count Dracula who has pretended to be a man to deceive humanity for centuries. If that doesn’t sound like an excellent prestige series, we don’t know what could.
Dead Rising
To conclude, let’s state something obvious. We love zombies. The best zombie series from Capcom is Resident Evil, but the second best, which has no kind of adaptation, is Dead Rising. And who could resist a completely crazy series where a group of survivors tries to survive against psychotic killers while defending themselves from hordes of zombies in a mix of horror and comedy? We tell you: we wouldn’t. We would be there on premiere day. And that’s why, Hollywood, take note: make series based on these games.
Rockstar Games has once again captured the public’s attention by suggesting that it might be developing an enhanced version of Grand Theft Auto IV, originally released in 2008. According to close sources, the remaster could be aimed at consoles like PS4 and Nintendo Switch, expanding the classic’s access to potential 300 million users. This move follows the company’s trend, which had previously remastered iconic titles like Red Dead Redemption. GTA 4 is one of the most beloved titles in the franchise.

This move follows the company’s trend, which had previously remastered iconic titles like Red Dead Redemption.
GTA 4 is one of the most beloved titles in the franchise
The possibility of this new release seems to have been motivated by the recent removal of the Liberty City Preservation Project mod, which offered an enhanced version of GTA IV without official support from Rockstar. The decision to withdraw this unofficial content may indicate that the company is looking to launch its own remastered version, in order to ensure commercial success and prevent the quality of the mod from cannibalizing sales of its official product.
In parallel, Rockstar has set the release date for Grand Theft Auto VI for May 26, 2026. The anticipation for this title is immense and it is expected to set new sales records, especially as the video game market adapts to prices exceeding 100 euros. This could be a crucial factor in the development of its marketing and distribution.
In addition to GTA IV, there are rumors about a possible remastering of Max Payne 3, which has generated even more anticipation among fans. Although Rockstar has historically been reluctant to touch its classics, the growing market acceptance of high-priced video games could be leading the company to reconsider its approach. With several projects underway and the promise of a GTA VI that has the potential to be a milestone in the industry, the gaming community is watching Rockstar’s next moves closely.
