Ravenous for any new information about Grand Theft Auto 6, GTA fans have uncovered the LinkedIn profile of a Rockstar Games principal engine programmer, whose written job experience might have given a small glimpse into what the studio is working on behind the scenes.
First highlighted on the r/GTA6 subreddit, the LinkedIn profile in question appears to belong to Ryan Woods, who's been at Rockstar since May 2020 working on GTA 6. A screenshot of his job experience includes a relatively lengthy description of his work overseeing the "design, development, and optimization of core engine of Rockstar's in-house RAGE engine." What's more, the description mentions optimization efforts to "maintain smooth performance across multiple platforms, including next-gen consoles and PC," and makes reference to "the integration of new technologies and research into the engine pipeline," including ray-tracing and "procedural generation for objects and game environments" – and the latter part has turned a few heads.
