Latest GTA VI Reveals
It’s been more than a year since we received the first trailer of GTA VI, the 90-second trailer created enough hype to make it the most wanted game of the year. We can assume that fans will soon receive another trailer with “mind-blowing things” David was talking about. Although there are no clear updates regarding the specifications, the statement has surely made fans more curious.
Many players were waiting for the announcement of the GTA VI release on PCs in 2025. However, the best guess says that Grand Theft Auto VI will be only available on consoles in 2025. Later, you can expect it to be released on personal computers. GTA V was released 11 years ago and still tops the list of best-selling traditional AAA games, which creates a lot of pressure on GTA VI to stand on the expectations of players after a wait of decade.
Highlights from the Golden Joystick Awards 2024
GTA VI winning the Most Wanted Game award isn’t much of a surprise but the selection of Satisfactory as a PC Game of the Year was surely a one. Satisfactory received the award beating out Animal Well, Balatro, Frostpunk 2, Tactical Breach Wizards, and UFO 50.
In addition to Rockstar’s tease, Feng Ji, CEO of Black Myth: Wukong developer Game Science, also gave out updates in his receiving speech. Feng Ji said, “If you haven’t played Black Myth: Wukong yet, you are in luck. Now you have one more reason to give it a try! And if you have already completed our game. That’s perfectly fine too. Keep following us, and there might just be some surprises waiting for you later this year.”
As the 42nd Golden Joystick Awards wrap up, there’s no doubt that exciting things are ahead for gamers. With GTA VI teasing “mind-blowing” updates and the success of titles like Black Myth: Wukong and Satisfactory, the future of gaming looks brighter than ever.
As we wait for more details and upcoming releases, fans can rest assured that the next few months will bring even more surprises and thrills. The anticipation for these games is only growing, and it’s clear that the best is yet to come.
