Rockstar reveals it built a GTA 6 team that focused solely on creating more realistic NPCs with over 600,000 animations — twice as many as Red Dead Redemption 2 had

GTA 6.

• Grand Theft Auto 6 's hand-crafted NPCs have over 600,000 animations
• Rockstar North co-head Aaron Garbut says Rockstar established a new team that art-directed every single NPC
• Garbut says every single room and the NPCs inside them were hand-crafted

To achieve the grand scale and realism we witnessed this week in Grand Theft Auto 6's extended look, the development team went above and beyond, according to Rockstar.
