Overview
- A well-known leaker on X, TheGhostOfHope, claims GTA 6’s online mode will go live within a month of the base game’s launch, though the claim remains unverified.
- Destructoid notes the leaker’s past accuracy on major titles, including Call of Duty, where reports were credible enough to prompt a legal demand from Activision.
- Times Now cites separate rumors of a broader ‘GTA Online 2.0’ arriving 6–8 months after launch, with chatter about a large map, GTA 6 characters crossing over, and a redesigned chat window.
- History offers a warning: GTA Online launched two weeks after GTA V in 2013 and ran into server crashes, long load times, disconnects, and wiped characters that cost players hours of progress.
- Player sentiment is split, with some wanting months for the story to shine before multiplayer and others favoring a short wait so they can move to Online soon after release.
