In June, when Rockstar shared <em>GTA 6<\/em>&#8216;s pricing and preorder details, the company emphasized that the game is a &#8220;single-player experience.&#8221; But given how much money <em>GTA Online<\/em> still makes for them, few people doubt that some form of multiplayer experience will come to the new game too.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<p>Confirmation of multiplayer for <em>GTA 6<\/em> apparently came from an unlikely source.

The CEO stated the obvious when he mentioned that Twitch will see a big bump in viewership when <em>GTA 6<\/em> launches, but he also added that there will be &#8220;an even bigger one next year when they launch multiplayer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear if Clancy made a mistake by revealing something he wasn&#8217;t supposed to, but the timing is quite interesting, if vague. <em>GTA 6<\/em> will launch on Nov. 19, 2026, so if Clancy&#8217;s statement holds true, multiplayer could be coming as early as two months later, in January 2027. <em>GTA Online<\/em> was released only two weeks after <em>GTA 5<\/em>, whereas multiplayer for <em>Red Dead Redemption 2 <\/em>arrived seven months later. In any case, Rockstar ending support for the existing <em>GTA Online <\/em>sounds very unlikely at this time.<\/p>\n<p>The developer has not yet issued a statement regarding Clancy&#8217;s reveal. Meanwhile, <em>GTA 6<\/em> will be getting a physical release after all, in the form of a vinyl and CD soundtrack, dropping on the same day as the game.<\/p>\n<p><em>Grand Theft Auto 6<\/em> will be released on Nov. 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gta-6-multiplayer-online-coming-2027-twitch-ceo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Among the many questions still surrounding the most-hyped game of the decade, Grand Theft Auto 6, the one at the forefront of fans&#8217; minds is&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":86007,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[5668,3402,969,2179],"class_list":["post-86006","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-gadgets-reviews","tag-ceo","tag-gta","tag-multiplayer","tag-twitch","wpcat-32-id"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=86006"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86006\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/86007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=86006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=86006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=86006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
