4 ways GTA 6 could make combat feel more cinematic than GTA 5
(Image via Rockstar Games) GTA combat has always been fun, but never really 'cinematic.' You aim, you shoot, chaos follows. But with GTA 6 pushing boundaries in story and visuals, it's the perfect time for Rockstar to upgrade the action. Give us something that feels like we're in a movie, not just playing one. Here are 4 ways GTA 6 could make its combat scenes feel straight out of Hollywood. 1. Slow-Mo Kill Shots Like Max Payne Remember Max Payne 3 ? Rockstar made that, and it was pure bullet-time bliss. Imagine that same slow-motion final headshot cam making a comeback in GTA 6. You kick down a door, drop the last enemy, and bam — slow-mo close-up as the bullet hits. It's not just cool — it's satisfying. Every intense shootout needs a little drama, and this would give it exactly that. Whether it's Lucia clearing out a room or Jason sniping from a rooftop, this feature would make every fight feel personal. GTA VI: Combat System, Fighting Styles - What Do We Want To See?! 2. Environmental Interactions During Fights What's more cinematic than flipping a table for cover or knocking over a shelf to block a doorway mid-gunfight? Games like The Last of Us Part II nailed this — GTA 6 needs to let us interact with the environment in real time. Not just hiding behind walls, but sliding over counters, pushing over crates, or using fire extinguishers as weapons. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Rockstar has the tech — it's time to make every room a weapon. Imagine a bar fight in Vice City where bottles shatter, stools fly, and every object tells a story. 3. Dynamic Camera Angles That Adapt to Action Static third-person combat works, but dynamic cameras? Next level. Picture this: you enter a tight hallway shootout and the camera automatically shifts to a shoulder-close view. You hit a clean takedown and the camera zooms and tilts like a crime thriller. Think Uncharted meets John Wick . With modern consoles, Rockstar could make combat feel more fluid, cinematic, and intense, without losing control. Give us those 'did-that-just-happen' moments, with the perfect camera angle to match. GTA VI: Combat System, Fighting Styles - What Do We Want To See?! 4. Tag-Team Takedowns with Lucia and Jason Lucia and Jason are a duo — let's feel that. Imagine missions where you can coordinate cinematic tag-team takedowns. Jason kicks open a door, Lucia dives in and takes down two guys in a slick animation. Think Arkham-style dual finishers, but R-rated. It's not just stylish — it deepens the bond between the characters. These scripted-yet-interactive moments could turn basic combat into iconic action sequences. And when done right? Insta-viral. GTA 6 is shaping up to be Rockstar's most ambitious game yet. If they want to take combat to the next level, it's not just about more guns — it's about more cinema . We want the shootouts to hit like heat, drama, and adrenaline combined. Rockstar has the tools. Now it just needs to bring the movie magic.

GTA 4 Port for Modern Consoles Might Be Out in 2025
has been releasing ports of some of its most beloved games, like Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto Vice City (as part of the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy). Now, it seems the lauded game makers are close to releasing a port of 2008's and 2012's . According to known GTA leaker Tez2 (as spotted by Reddit user leonwongkennedy), Rockstar Games is working on a port for the critically lauded GTA 4. They state that the port might release 'later this year.' Additionally, they say the company is working on a port for Max Payne 3 to release along with the remakes of Max Payne and Max Payne 2. 'Someone at [Rockstar Games] hinted at the [GTA 4] port, and by not, it should've gone up a year in development,' says the leaker. We may end up seeing it drop later this year. And it's one more reason, in addition to existing reasons, the LCPP mod was taken down.' If they still follow their plan laid out from the pandemic days, they'll do a [Max Payne 3] port after [GTA 4],' continues the leaker. So, that is an opportunity to do a bundle or a Definitive Edition. Max Payne 1 & 2 remakes, and a Max Payne 3 port.' Like any rumor, take this with a grain of salt. Rockstar has not yet revealed a modern port for GTA 4 or Max Payne 3. We'll just have to wait and see until they get a formal reveal. A GTA 4 port releasing this year may satiate some of the fans who might be disappointed by GTA 6's recent delay. The recently released trailer revealed some new characters, as well as a good look at footage captured on a PS5. The new release date for the highly anticipated game is May 26, 2026.

GTA 4 remaster coming to PS5 this year claims insider
A next gen version GTA 4 is in development for PS5 and Xbox, according to a well known insider, ahead of a planned re-release of Max Payne 3. While we have a long wait for GTA 6, following its delay to May 26 next year, Rockstar might be planning to release another entry in the series in 2025. Rockstar has released several remasters over recent years, including the original Red Dead Redemption and the much maligned GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, but a new rumour suggests the developer is quietly cooking up at least two more. According to Tez2, a well respected dataminer for Rockstar's games, a 'port' of 2008's GTA 4 is in development and could launch later this year. When asked if they'd heard anything about a potential remaster of GTA 4 for modern consoles on the GTA Forums, Tez2 replied: 'Someone at [Rockstar] hinted at the 4 port, and by now it should've gone up a year in development. We may end up seeing it drop later this year.' The dataminer claims this remaster is 'one more reason' why the Liberty City Preservation Project, a fan mod which recreated the setting of GTA 4 in GTA 5, was shut down earlier this year. After this potential remaster, Tez2 claims Rockstar will next tackle a port of Max Payne 3 if the studio continues to 'follow their plan laid out from the pandemic days' – so it's very possible that plans have shifted since then. The term port implies little or no changes from the original but Tez2 seems to treat the term as being synonymous with remaster. A remake of Max Payne 1 & 2 is in development at Remedy, which will be released as one game and financed by Rockstar. As such, a remaster of Max Payne 3, which was the only game in the series developed by Rockstar themselves, makes a lot of sense to complete the set. More Trending Tez2 has a good track record when it comes to datamining, having outed the existence of a Red Dead Redemption PC port, but they're largely untested when it comes to alleged insider knowledge – so it's probably best to take this with a pinch of salt for now. After GTA: The Trilogy, a remaster of GTA 4 does make sense; especially as it is still locked to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 (although it is available on PC). Rockstar also recently acquired Video Games Deluxe, who worked on the upgraded version of GTA: The Trilogy, which strongly indicates they're working on new remasters. If it is planned for this year, a GTA 4 revisit might be the perfect way to burn time until GTA 6 – even if the game is a bit dated in its divisive, sluggish driving physics.
