GTA VI Rumours: Will Players Get Paid in Cryptocurrency?

GTA VI Rumours: Will Players Get Paid in Cryptocurrency?

Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA VI) has been a highly anticipated game for over a decade, and fans are eagerly awaiting its release in Fall next year. As the excitement builds up, speculations and rumours about the game have been circulating on social media. One intriguing rumour suggests that players in GTA VI might receive cryptocurrency as in-game payment for completing missions.

According to a report by Watcher Guru, players might be rewarded with a cryptocurrency called $RSTAR, an acronym for Rockstar Games. However, it's important to note that this rumour lacks confirmation from reliable sources and should be taken with a pinch of salt until official statements are made by the developers.

While the inclusion of cryptocurrency in GTA VI is not confirmed, it wouldn't be entirely surprising considering Rockstar Games' history of parodying real-world trends and events in the Grand Theft Auto series. Cryptocurrency has been a hot topic in recent years, making it a likely candidate for Rockstar's satirical treatment. It could serve as a gimmick within the game, reflecting the company's penchant for integrating contemporary themes.

For example, the first trailer of GTA VI showcased the importance of social media in the game, with characters using a TikTok-like app. This suggests that Rockstar Games is incorporating elements of the digital age into the game, making the rumours of cryptocurrency as a form of in-game payment more plausible.

However, until Rockstar Games or its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, confirm or deny these rumours, fans will have to wait for official announcements to see if cryptocurrency will indeed be integrated into GTA VI.

Ambiguous Statements by Take-Two Interactive CEO

In a recent interview with Video Games Chronicle, Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed the possibility of a PC release for GTA VI. His comments were somewhat ambiguous, leaving room for interpretation. While a PC release is not confirmed, it is also not entirely off the table. Zelnick stated, "Well, the lack of news is not something set in stone, from what I’ve seen, because the only thing that happens after the lack of news is an announcement, I suppose, or a continued lack of news. I suppose that could also happen. It doesn’t seem to me that either of those things is set in stone."

This statement suggests that there is still hope for PC gamers to experience GTA VI, although nothing is certain at this point. Fans will have to wait for further updates from the developers to know for sure.

As the release of GTA VI draws closer, the excitement and anticipation among fans continue to grow. While rumours of players getting paid in cryptocurrency for in-game missions add another layer of intrigue to the game, it's important to approach these rumours with caution until official confirmations are made.

Until then, gamers around the world eagerly await more news and updates about the highly anticipated GTA VI.
