The next Grand Theft Auto (possibilities)
Posted: Wed Sep 21, 2022 7:16 pm
Anyone here in the gaming community or follows the latest gaming news will no doubt be aware that Grand Theft Auto developer, Rockstar Games, had a huge cyber security breach last weekend and about 90 minutes of DEBUG/pre-alpha footage of their next GTA game got leaked onto the internet.
It is all VERY EARLY work-in-progress footage.

I won't link to any videos or user uploaded images as naturally Rockstar Games and their parent company, Take 2, are on the warpath over this and copyright claiming/striking down EVERYTHING they see uploaded. Take 2 are very notorious for sending lawyers and even private investigators out for lesser things when it comes to their property. No joke.
But we do have some small nuggets of info.
We know for the first time in history, or at least since the when the franchise went proper 3D...one of the playable characters will be a proper established female character. A rather nice looking Latin-American currently named Lucia (this name could change).
She and another playable character currently called Jason, from what I could tell...appear to be a couple, though we don't know for certain.
Reason I bring this up is because from off the top of my head, I recall 2 uniform stealing scenarios in previous GTA games.
GTA: Vice City involved your protagonist, Tommy Vercetti (voiced by the late and great Ray Liotta) ....and a non playable character knocking out 2 cops and donning their uniforms.
GTA V involved one of the playable characters sneaking into a movie studio, KOing an actor and donning his tuxedo.
Obviously these are not of interest since they are both male/male scenarios. Rockstars last game, Red Dead Redemption 2, involved taking a guard outfit for disguise ....but not from another person. But this all does show Rockstar are no stranger to the uniform theft/disguise concept.
Now with an established female protagonist ....there is possibly a glimmer of hope! Certainly would be a great feature to add into the game in order to reduce your "wanted" level. GTA players will know what I mean!
Another thing of note ....even though this is early unfinished footage ..... in one clip (and the second image down in the article) where you see a behind camera of Lucia ....you can actually see her bra outline through the tight pink top she is wearing. To the best of my recollection ....I have not noticed this detail in past GTA games. And I recently played the re-remaster of GTA V in 4K quality that came out last March.
Hopefully this is positive signs toward a much more advance clothing mechanic system.
But unfortunately ....it's going to be a LONG LONG TIME before we find out. Based on history .... their games do not release until 18 months AFTER the initial official reveal trailer. Quite known for slipping back 6 months or even a year from their initial intended release date.
It is all VERY EARLY work-in-progress footage.
