Well, for starters, as we all know, the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series will be a massive game, not just in map size and gameplay but also with its gorgeous visuals, and that’s not taking into account all the preparation that goes into marketing such a juggernaut.

However,gamers onReddit also believe that at least in some part, the unannouncedPlayStation 5 Procould be to blame. To be fair, there could be some truth behind that assumption because it wouldn’t be surprising that behind closed doors, developers are already creating games with the PS5 Pro in mind.

When that follower replied saying they will first be waiting forGTA VIconsole upgrades, videotechuk_ said: “I have a big feeling Rockstar is holding out for Sony to reveal the console so they can include ‘Captured on PS5 Pro’ for the next trailer. They have a marketing deal with Sony it seems, again.”

“I thought the same thing recently when Rockstar Games didn’t add any information aboutGTA VIat the Take-Two Interactive financial meeting,” Reddit user Sharp-Effective-2030 explained. “I also think that Rockstar Games is waiting for the announcement of the new PS5.”

“If they do plan to marketGTA VIon PS5 Pro with in-game cinematics/gameplay then they will definitely have to advertise huge disclaimers on the videos to avoid any online confusion,” claimed MrCodeman93.

Grand Theft Auto VIis currently scheduled to be released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in late 2025. A PC release is yet to be officially announced.
