Take-Two Confirms GTA Online Isn’t Going Anywhere

We now have official word on what’s going to happen to GTA Online after GTA 6 launches. According to Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick, Rockstar has no intention of abandoning its long-running online game anytime soon.

GTA Online Will Persist

In a recent report from IGN, Strauss Zelnick had the following to say about GTA Online:

“We intend to keep supporting GTA Online and it has been very successful. It’s been very resilient. It has continued to grow over the years, so we feel very good about it.”

When asked whether the launch of GTA 6 would eventually phase out GTA Online, Zelnick made it clear that Take-Two intends to keep supporting the existing game.

So thankfully, it looks like both Rockstar and Take-Two want to keep their older online mode around, even when the fancy new sequel arrives. But this raises another question.

With GTA 6’s PC release potentially taking six months or longer after its console launch, how long will it take before we see a new GTA Online experience arrive in GTA 6?

Truthfully, there’s no way to tell just yet. However, Rockstar has reportedly been looking to bring GTA 6 to PC sooner, partly due to the growing number of AI-generated games flooding the market with soulless clones of existing titles.

Who knows how quickly a new GTA Online mode could arrive? For now, it’s safe to say we might be in for a long wait before we see what Rockstar has planned for the next generation of GTA Online.
