Summary
A new rumor indicates thatGrand Theft Auto 6could be using procedural generation during its development and may be coming to PC after all.Grand Theft Auto 6is the most eagerly awaited game of 2025, and fans have been clinging to essentially any rumor about its development, while Rockstar has still not released the second official trailer for the upcoming open-world action game.
Last year, Rockstar unveiled the first officialGTA 6trailer, offering gamers a glimpse of what the game would be and presenting its protagonists, Lucia and Jason. TheGrand Theft Auto 6trailer was a huge hit, with over 220 million fans watching it. Unfortunately, news about the title has been scarce since then.
Now, a gamer has discovered the LinkedIn profile of a Principal Engine Programmer who has been working at Rockstar since 2020 and hasGTA 6listed as the only project they’re working on. In the post, the developer lists out some of the work they have done, which included working with Rockstar’s in-house engine, RAGE, to develop the game for both consoles and PC.GTA 6has not been confirmed for PC, but this indicates that it may eventually be released on the platform. The post also says that the developer has worked with ray tracing, and “procedural generation for objects and game environments.”
Rumors Indicate that GTA 6 Could Come to PC, Use Ray-Tracing, and Employ Procedural Generation
These details hint thatGTA 6could have used procedural generation to create its vast open world. That’s not surprising, considering that most large games utilize it in some manner, and populating the world with trees, grass, and small objects is a greatly time-consuming procedure. In any case, considering how handcrafted Rockstar’s worlds often are, it’s unlikely that the feature will be used to create large chunks of the game. Obviously, the information on this LinkedIn profile does not guarantee that any of these features will be inGrand Theft Auto 6when it’s finally released in 2025, so it’s worth taking the rumor with a grain of salt unless Rockstar confirms it.
Another recentGTA 6rumor indicates that the next trailer will come out soon. According to some gamers, it’s possible that Rockstar will follow the same pattern as last year, releasing the new trailer one week before the December update forGrand Theft Auto Online. This would put the trailer’s release on July 31, 2025. However, it’s impossible to predict the exact date, so fans will have to wait until the official announcement to know for sure.
