Donkey Kong Bananza has a development time to rival GTA 6: "I can tell you that we started developing it after finishing Super Mario Odyssey"

Donkey Kong Bananza has seemingly been in development for longer than GTA 6, according to the Switch 2 game's producer.

If you ask anyone about GTA, they'll tell you Rockstar Games has taken forever to get GTA 6 out, which makes sense since GTA 5 is old enough to make a will in its home country of Scotland. While not quite Duke Nukem Forever levels, it feels like GTA 6 has been in development for so long that it's going to be almost impossible to live up to the hype. However, an ex-Rockstar dev claimed work on GTA 6 didn't actually kick off until 2018, after the release of Red Dead Redemption 2, which feels like a far more realistic dev time for a game as big as GTA 6.
