Ex-Rockstar dev confirms GTA 6 started development in 2018; fans say 'It's been worth the wait'

Time of India11-05-2025
The most-awaited second trailer of GTA 6, a.k.a. Grand Theft Auto VI, has finally been launched by Rockstar Games after months of maintaining silence over any update.
Amid this, a new thread on Reddit has garnered the massive attention of users on the platform, which claims that an ex-Rockstar developer has confirmed that GTA 6 started its development in 2018.
The former Rockstar Games 3d environment artist who worked on Grand Theft Auto 6 has confirmed it's been in development since at least 2018 while reacting to the game's second trailer.
GTA 6 has been working on the game for about seven years now
Since when Rockstar has been working on the game was also a question in fans' minds, but it seems all the rumours and speculations are clear now.
If we look around at the theories and delirium about when we might finally receive a second trailer for the game, we'll have to agree that how wrong it was all, and it is way bigger than it may look.
Additionally, a Twitter user pointed out that former Rockstar North environment artist David O'Reilly, whose YouTube name is 'Game World Art', was on the project up until 2023. He also noted that the development started "after we wrapped up on RDR2", reported The Gamer.
"I worked on GTA 6 from 2018 to 2023. Went onto it after we wrapped up on RDR2. It's fascinating having a look at all this stuff. - David O'Reilly," he quoted.
Fans react to the 2018 development of GTA 6
As soon as this update surfaced on Reddit, fans quickly started discussing it. One wrote, "People like to fantasise that the game has been in development since 2013. Yes, the concepts and writing, but full-scale actual development would've started around the time RDR2 was coming out."
"I was not bothered by the first trailer but after 2 it's all I can think about. I can not believe there's another year to go.😭"
"They still delivered some pretty fire online dlcs like cayo perico before they dropped the ball in 2022."

After Mrunal Thakur Bodyshamed Bipasha Basu, Kareena Kapoor Khan Trolled For Mean Comments: "Poo In Real Life"

New Delhi: Mrunal Thakur was mercilessly trolled recently for throwing shades at Bipasha Basu and calling her muscles "manly". Two days back, Bipasha Basu too took an indirect jibe at Mrunal Thakur's comment, which was followed by the Son of Sardaar 2 actress apologising for her thoughtless remark many years ago. Now, Reddit users have dug out some old interviews of Kareena Kapoor Khan, where the actress had made some mean comments on her colleagues in the profession. What's Happening Kareena Kapoor Khan had once called Sanjay Leela Bhansali a "confused director" when she lost her role in the Shah Rukh Khan-led Devdas to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Furthermore, Kareena had also said that Sridevi never had a historical hit. About Hrithik Roshan's debut film Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai (2000), Kareena had shared that the director Rakesh Roshan was more focused on his son, actor Hrithik Roshan. While she passed some nasty remarks on Ameesha Patel's pimples and undereye bags. Some other comments included her calling Salman Khan a "bad actor" and stating that "being fat is not sexy". How Redditors Reacted As these old interview comments of Kareena Kapoor Khan resurfaced, Redditors slammed the Jab We Met actress. One comment read, "Poo in real life!" Someone else wrote, "I always point that out. Her fans pass her mean behaviour as "Sassy" and call her real life "Poo" as if it's an achievement." Another Internet user mentioned, "Man, was this woman unfiltered. Haughty she may have been, but she gave film magazine readers their money's worth." Someone else stated, "Thank god she started at a time when celebrities weren't crucified for singular statements on social media. But yes, she could use some diplomacy. SRK could teach her." Another Internet user lashed out, "I swear she has forever been mean. I don't know what's iconic about that. Being disrespectful is not cool." Reddit Mrunal Thakur Controversy With Bipasha Basu In a resurfaced video, Mrunal Thakur and her co-star Arjit Taneja were seen giving an interview during their Kumkum Bhagya days. At one point, Arjit playfully teased her about doing a headstand, to which she jokingly replied that he could sit while she balanced on her head. Arjit then challenged her again to do push-ups. Mrunal chimed in that he might be interested in marrying a strong, muscular woman. Arjit agreed that he would like to have a physically toned woman in his life. This led Mrunal to remark that he could choose Bipasha Basu. Mrunal Thakur said, "Do you want to marry a girl who is manly with muscles? Go marry Bipasha." She added, "Listen, I am far better than Bipasha, okay?" In A Nutshell

Watch: Bengaluru Engineer Builds Robot That Makes Crispy Dosas Automatically

When it comes to South Indian breakfast staples, the first name that pops into our mind is crispy dosa. A recent viral post showed how an engineer in Bengaluru is giving dosas a futuristic twist. A home-built robot named Thindy has become his passion project, and it has impressed food lovers with its ability to prepare dosas without any human help. A video of the robot-prepared dosa has gone viral online. In the clip, Thindy picks up the batter, spreads it smoothly across a hot tawa, drizzles some oil and cooks the dosa to just the right shade of golden brown. Finally, the robot lifts the crisp dosa neatly and places it on a waiting plate, almost as if a seasoned cook had done it. Sharing his story on Reddit, the engineering expert wrote, "I've been working on a personal project for the last few months here in Bengaluru - a robot named Thindy that can make dosas automatically. It pours the batter, spreads it evenly, and cooks it just right. The idea came from watching my family cook and thinking - What if a robot could do this while we relax?" He added, "I'd love to hear your thoughts - what features would you like in a cooking robot? And yes, it can make crispy dosas! (Not a commercial post - just sharing my build and story with fellow Bangaloreans!)." Built a dosa-making robot right here in Bengaluru – Meet Thindy 🍽️🤖 by u/Pitiful_Somewhere_81 in Bengaluru Redditors had much to say about the innovative creation. "Would suggest oil spray than pouring it," recommended a user. "I want one that can make me biryani," revealed a food lover. "Train the robot to make round dosas," suggested someone else. "Thanks for the laughs, man," read a remark. "Really cool, man. More power to you," praised an individual. On YouTube, the engineer said that the idea first struck him over breakfast. "A few months ago, while enjoying dosa for breakfast, I found myself thinking about the time and effort my mom or my wife puts into making them. That's when a thought struck me. What if a robot could help prepare fresh foods like dosas, right from our kitchen counter?" he said. And the rest is history. The engineer devoted his time to sketching, coding, assembling and countless rounds of testing and modification. What started as an experiment turned into a detailed process of trial and error, with each attempt bringing him closer to perfecting the machine. Thindy's design goes beyond just dosas. Its robotic gripper can hold spatulas, bottles, and brushes, making it flexible enough to handle several kitchen tasks.
