GTA 6 maker Rockstar working on multiple other games says Take-Two
Aside from the Max Payne remakes, GTA 6 studio Rockstar is rumoured to be working on more ports of older games. With how big a game GTA 5 was, both in terms of its content and how much it sold, it's not unreasonable to assume GTA 6 is aiming to be even bigger. As such, you have to imagine that the entirety of developer Rockstar Games is putting all its time and energy into ensuring it lives up to the lofty expectations of fans. Especially since it's been more than a decade since GTA 5's initial launch. This isn't necessarily the case, though, as Strauss Zelnick, the CEO of Rockstar's parent company Take-Two Interactive, has suggested the studio has a lot more on its plate besides GTA 6. As spotted by Rockstar Mag on X, Zelnick made a recent appearance on CNBC's business section, where he was of course asked for an update on GTA 6's progress. After once again recommitting to its new release date of May 26, 2026, adding that his 'level of conviction is very very high,' Zelnick was then asked how much of the Rockstar team is working on GTA 6 specifically. 'Rockstar does have a lot of other things going on,' answered Zelnick, adding that GTA 6 is, of course, 'the primary focus.'

This does make sense since larger studios tend to juggle more than one project at a time. Otherwise, the wait between new games would be much longer. Rockstar Games travaille sur « plusieurs projets » et pas seulement sur # niveau de conviction concernant la date de sortie de GTA 6 est « très, très élevé ».Rockstar compte dépasser les attentes les plus élevées dans l'industrie du JV et de la Pop Culture avec GTA 6. — Rockstar Mag' (@Rockstar_Mag) August 12, 2025 With how much of an undertaking GTA 6 is, any other projects Rockstar is simultaneously handling are likely smaller in scope. So, don't go expecting a big budget Red Dead Redemption sequel to drop in a year or two. If anything, Rockstar could be working on ports and remasters of its back catalogue; several of which have been the subject of popular rumours in the past. More Trending Red Dead Redemption 2, for instance, is said to be due an updated re-release for modern consoles, including the Nintendo Switch 2, as well as modern ports of 2008's GTA 4 and 2012's Max Payne 3. Speaking of Max Payne, Rockstar does have a hand in the remakes of the first two games that are currently in development over at Remedy, the studio responsible for the Alan Wake and Control games. According to a new financial report from Remedy, development on the remakes is going steady and 'collaboration with Rockstar Games remains close and productive, ensuring alignment as the project advances toward its next major phase.' However, there's nothing to indicate when Remedy will have something tangible to show, let alone a release date. Email gamecentral@ leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.

When does Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start? Here's when you can expect the rumoured bug invasion
The Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date is right around the corner, and the upcoming season is set to bring in a host of new gameplay additions to the game As Fortnite gears up for a new season, it's been a whirlwind of live events and fresh cosmetics before the game transitions to a new theme on the island. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 has been an absolute riot thus far, and we're not ready to wrap things up just yet with the upcoming Super Showdown live event. The past few months have seen a plethora of offerings from the game, including the Fantastic Four cosmetics making their mark alongside Superman's debut in the Super Battle Pass, aligning the game with a summer filled with pop culture heroes. It's been thoroughly enjoyable immersing ourselves in this season's superhero theme, particularly as these characters are experiencing a cultural resurgence. The newly introduced characters from this significant content update have quickly become familiar faces, and their unique abilities have added an exciting dimension to gameplay. Notably, Morgan Myst's raven flurries and Killswitch's pistols, which allowed players to perform Max Payne-style aerial dives, were standout features. While Fortnite may have missed an opportunity for a crossover with the Rockstar and Remedy franchise, we're more than happy with what we've got. Change is certainly on the cards, with the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date fast approaching and a slew of new gameplay additions anticipated to roll out following the major transition. So what exactly can we look forward to? Here's everything you need to know about the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date The Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 start date is set for Thursday, August 7 at 3am PDT / 6am EDT / 11am BST. We first uncovered this confirmed release date when we delved into the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 end date. The commencement time of the season is based on the confirmed conclusion time of the current season as shown on the game's Battle Pass page, coupled with an estimated five-hour downtime, similar to what we experienced when Chapter 6 Season 3 launched. The upcoming season still holds many secrets, including whether the rumours of an intergalactic bug invasion hold any truth – but we can almost guarantee it'll be a blast. Bid farewell to your favourite superpowers before they're consigned to the archives.

Remedy lays out its plan to fix FBC: Firebreak, which includes improved onboarding
Remedy has announced plans to fix FBC: Firebreak and restore the good will of consumers after a rough launch earlier this year. Many of the issues surrounding the launch were regarding the onboarding process, which the company acknowledges by saying that "many players come into the game and leave within the first hour." Remedy is trying to make that opening hour more welcoming to new players, so they don't "feel ineffective and confused as to what to do." It has already placed an introductory video in the game with a narrative to explain the world and how it relates to the developer's hit game Control , as FBC: Firebreak is set in the same universe. Remedy promises more of this type of "narrative onboarding" will come to the game later this year. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. It's building a playable tutorial level, as the developer acknowledges it needs "to do a better job" teaching new players the core mechanics and features. It's also taking a page out of Nintendo's playbook and introducing more "pop up" tips that will appear at "relevant times" throughout the first couple of hours. The forthcoming updates aren't just about onboarding. Remedy will be adding three new heavy guns to the arsenal and introducing a modding system for weapons. The company will share more about this system "before September." It's also introducing "big changes to the way" players access missions and beefing up the missions themselves. The developer says it's refining several elements to increase the fun factor, going on to say that it will be "weeding out our least fun experience" and "focusing on our best experiences." There will even be new game modes and missions down the line. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. Much of this is coming in the game's first major update, with a planned winter launch. For the uninitiated, FBC: Firebreak is a multiplayer FPS that places an emphasis on cooperative action. It's available on Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, so it could technically be "free" to check out any progress the dev has made since launch.

PS Plus Extra and Premium July 2025 games revealed as Cyberpunk 2077 appears
The PS Plus Extra and Premium July 2025 games are set to be revealed by a new PlayStation blog post, and we'll bring you all the details once they're made available. The latest batch of PS Plus games has landed, offering Extra and Premium subscribers a fresh array of titles including Cyberpunk 2077 and Abiotic Factor. PS Plus Extra and Premium generally offers good value, but despite last month's release featuring a brand new title from a top-notch development team, players didn't stay engaged for long. The PS Plus Extra and Premium June update saw the introduction of Remedy's FBC: Firebreak, a new three-player co-op shooter set in the world of Control that ultimately failed to captivate players, and it was supplemented by Battlefield 2042, a game that has long passed its peak. It wasn't ideal, but the service managed to turn things around for a different group of players. The PS Plus Essential July drop truly delivered, unleashing Diablo 4 on players, along with the rising indie game Jusant that filled the void left by the viral success of Peak, being a PC exclusive title. It was a fantastic month, and even though our PS Plus Extra and Premium July predictions were slightly off the mark, we remained confident that we'd receive a solid selection of games. And thankfully, that's exactly what we got. Here's what you need to know about the new PS Plus Extra and Premium July 2025 games.
