Grand Theft Auto VI is once again under the microscope, as a former Rockstar Games developer has suggested the GTA 6 map could be 'monstrous' when the game finally launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 19 November. John Ricchio, who worked at Rockstar between 2003 and 2014, said he 'can only imagine' how large or detailed the new world will be, adding fresh fuel to speculation already circling one of gaming's most anticipated releases.
The renewed debate over GTA 6 arrived after Ricchio appeared on the Kiwi Talkz YouTube channel, in an interview later highlighted by GamesRadar. Fans have spent months poring over Rockstar's first trailer and pre-order listings, looking for clues about the scale of the new Vice City setting, but the studio itself has kept almost all hard details locked down. In the absence of official numbers, the comments of someone who helped ship GTA V and Red Dead Redemption inevitably carry weight.
