What if GTA 6 has a dual betrayal ending like Red Dead Redemption 2?
(Image via Rockstar Games) Imagine pouring 60 hours into GTA 6, falling in love with Lucia and Jason's wild, Bonnie & Clyde-style chaos, only to have one betray the other in the final act. Brutal, right? But what if Rockstar really goes there, just like they did with Arthur Morgan's heartbreaking ending in Red Dead Redemption 2? Let's break it down because if GTA 6 has a dual betrayal ending, it might just be the most savage twist in Rockstar history. Rockstar Loves Tragedy (And So Do We) Red Dead Redemption 2 didn't just end; it wrecked us. Dutch turned into a paranoid wreck, Micah was the absolute worst, and Arthur? He died betrayed, broken, but redeemed. Rockstar doesn't do "happy ever after." From Tommy Vercetti to Niko Bellic to Arthur Morgan — every story ends in loss, pain, or a moral gut-punch. GTA 5 gave us three endings, but the one fans call 'the canon' has all three protagonists survive. Red Dead 2? Not so lucky. If Rockstar brings that Red Dead energy into GTA 6 — especially with two characters as emotionally layered as Lucia and Jason — a betrayal ending feels too good (or too evil?) to pass up. Jason and Lucia Will Betray Each other.. (GTA VI Theory) What Would a Dual Betrayal Look Like? Picture this: Lucia and Jason are at the top of their game. The final heist is done. Money's rolling in. Then... Jason gets cold feet. He's seen too much blood. He wants out. But Lucia? She's not done climbing. She sees Jason as a liability. Betrayal 1 - Lucia sets Jason up. Or maybe Jason thinks Lucia's gonna ditch him, so he flips first. Betrayal 2 - A full Romeo & Juliet, but with guns, vaults, and helicopters. The beauty (and cruelty) would be in giving both characters the chance to betray the other, depending on the choices players make. Split endings. Different paths. All tragic. The Canceled Story of GTA VI.. Why This Twist Would Hit So Hard GTA 6 seems like it's going to be a more emotional, character-driven story — less chaos for chaos' sake, more "What would you do to survive?" Lucia's been to prison. Jason's run from his past. They're both survivors. But in Rockstar games, survival comes with a price. A dual betrayal ending would force players to question everything: Who did you side with more? Who do you trust ? Can there even be a 'happy' ending in a world like Leonida? It's the kind of gut-wrenching narrative twist that gets players talking, memeing, and replaying the game just to see what happens the other way. We're Not Ready If GTA 6 goes the Red Dead Redemption 2 route with a betrayal-filled finale, we're in for an emotional wreck of an ending. And honestly? We'd eat it up. After all, this isn't just a game about fast cars and big guns anymore. It's about trust, loyalty, and whether anyone can actually escape the life they chose. So buckle up. The sun might be shining in Vice City, but the ending could be dark as hell . Game On Season 1 kicks off with Sakshi Malik's inspiring story. Watch Episode 1 here

7 things Rockstar should not bring back in GTA 6
Image via Rockstar Games Rockstar is gearing up for what could be its biggest release ever with GTA 6. With a new setting, new protagonists, and next-gen realism, expectations are sky-high. But as much as we want them to bring in the best of GTA history, there are also a few things we'd rather not see again . Here are seven things Rockstar should leave in the past. 1. Clunky Shooting Mechanics Yes, GTA 5 had its moments, but let's be honest, gunplay in GTA has never felt as fluid or fun as it should. It's often sluggish, with sticky auto-aim and weird hit detection. GTA 6 needs smoother shooting that feels modern and satisfying, especially since games like Red Dead 2 already nailed it. WORST Missions in GTA 5... That Need To Be REMOVED 2. Overly Repetitive Side Missions How many times do we need to deliver packages or chase random NPCs for pocket change? Side missions in GTA 5 became painfully predictable after a point. In GTA 6, Rockstar should focus on depth and variety, not just quantity. 3. Useless Businesses That Don't Earn GTA Online introduced tons of businesses, but let's be real, many of them became cash drains unless you played nonstop. In single-player, they were often worse. If businesses come back in GTA 6, they need to feel meaningful, profitable, and impactful to the story. 4. Buggy Character Switching While the three-character system in GTA 5 was innovative, switching mid-mission often felt forced and awkward. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Good News: You May Be Richer Than You Think Undo With Jason and Lucia, if dual protagonists are returning, Rockstar should tighten the transitions and make the swaps feel more organic, or just stick to one playable character. 5. Unskippable Long Drives Nothing kills pacing faster than being forced to drive 10 minutes across the map just to start a mission, especially when there's no fast travel. GTA 6 should give players smarter options: fast-travel, ride-sharing, or at least mission checkpoints that don't reset halfway across the state. THE WORST PURCHASES IN GTA Online! 6. Pointless Purchases Buying 10 apartments, 20 cars, and five yachts in GTA Online sounds fun—until you realize most of them serve zero purpose. If GTA 6 includes economy and real estate, these features should be meaningful. Owning property should open up new missions, side stories, or character perks, not just be a money sink. 7. Overdone Satire We get it: GTA loves making fun of America, influencers, politics, and pop culture. But sometimes it's too much , bordering on annoying. In GTA 6, Rockstar should strike a balance: keep the humor, but don't make every billboard, radio host, or tweet a parody. GTA 6 has the power to redefine open-world gaming. By trimming some of the baggage from past titles, Rockstar can deliver a cleaner, smarter, and more immersive experience. Leave the junk behind, and let's move forward into Leonida with only the best in the backpack.

3 features Rockstar is hiding in GTA 6 until launch
Image via Rockstar Games Rockstar Games has never played it safe, especially not with GTA VI. While the two trailers have blown minds with Vice City beaches, neon-lit chaos, and that explosive chemistry between Lucia and Jason, there's still a lot we don't know. And that's exactly how Rockstar wants it. So, what is Rockstar keeping under wraps? Based on insider leaks, job listings, subtle clues, and pure fan obsession, here are three major features Rockstar might be hiding until launch day. 1. The Real Map Size (and What's Outside Vice City) Image via X/@GTA6XMedia Rockstar has officially confirmed Leonida , not just Vice City. The trailers tease places like Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, and Leonida Keys, but they barely scratch the surface. So what's missing? The actual map size is still a mystery. Leaks suggest it could be 2-3x bigger than GTA 5, possibly with rural towns, swamps, farmlands, and a working Everglades-style ecosystem. We haven't seen any of it in action. No highway systems, no outer-city mechanics, no day trips to fictional Orlando or Tampa-style cities. Rockstar is likely saving the full map reveal to surprise us with scale, variety, and life. If Red Dead 2's open world taught us anything, it's that the edges of the map often hold the best secrets. 2. Character Switching Is Back… But It's Evolved Yes, we've seen Lucia and Jason together in both trailers, but Rockstar has been suspiciously quiet about how we'll control them. Is it GTA V-style switching? Or something entirely new? Rumors suggest Rockstar is developing a dynamic switching system that changes based on your choices, location, and wanted level. Imagine pulling off a heist as Lucia, switching mid-police chase to Jason across town, and then watching both timelines merge for an epic getaway. They're probably saving this mic-drop moment for the final gameplay reveal. There will be MORE THAN 2 PROTAGONISTS in GTA 6 3. A Third Playable Character (Still Under Wraps) Lucia and Jason are officially confirmed. Their chemistry is already giving Bonnie & Clyde meets modern chaos . But here's where it gets interesting: Rockstar loves the three-character dynamic. They perfected it in GTA V, and fans adored the variety. So… where's the third? Some theories floating around suggest: A corrupt cop, working both sides. A Florida Man-style wildcard, adding dark humor. Or a silent fixer who ties into GTA Online. Why hide it? Simple: Rockstar wants one last major reveal just before launch or even in the post-release content wave. Rockstar doesn't show all its cards in trailers, and that's the beauty of it. With every frame, they're saying just enough to spark the hype but holding back the jaw-droppers for later. And if history's taught us anything, it's this: when Rockstar goes quiet, they're cooking something massive.

GTA 6 second trailer smashes records, but fans fear another delay; are you worried? Check details
GTA 6, or Grand Theft Auto VI, finally released its second trailer in May after a year-long wait. The second trailer is the biggest video launch in history, with over 475 million views in its first 24 hours across all platforms. Amid this, fans are eagerly waiting for the game to launch, but they can't stop predicting the release date. Recently, the fans on social media shared their concerns over another delay coming in after the game was initially delayed to 2026. When the second trailer of the game was released last month, Rockstar announced that GTA 6 is delayed to 26th May, 2026. According to the studio, they released a ton of new screenshots and artwork from the game, and it has also been updated on its website with extra information. Fans are concerned over the further delay of the game Even while it appears that this date is now final and won't be altered, GTA 6 fans are concerned that Rockstar might cause the game to be delayed once again. A recent Reddit post that went viral said, "How would you feel if GTA 6 got delayed AGAIN?" This sparked discussions online among users, and one wrote, "What's more pain is that fact that people who are looking forward to the 2026 release will make that but will die before a 2027 release" "I'm expecting a second delay, TBH," another noted. It's happened for both GTAV and Red Dead 2." While one said, "Both were slated to release in the spring of the respective years they came out. They were both delayed twice. My advice to you younger folks. Just don't even think about it. I obsessed over GTAV for the two years in between the release date and the launch. Same with Red Dead. They both exceeded my expectations. It will be worth the wait." Why is there a possibility that GTA 6 will be delayed further? Rockstar Games usually only delays a game when they don't have a concrete release date to be announced. However, the game could be delayed multiple times if it has not been given a specific date, but there is still a chance that 26th May 2026 is going to be the release date, as per Gaming Bible.
