With billions already reportedly poured into Grand Theft Auto 6 as it Rockstar Games is believed to have developed a new engine specifically for the next GTA installment, the game is expected to look good.
But, as it turns out, Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive have even bigger plans for GTA 6.
According to the latest leaks, the game's engine, known as RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine) is getting a significant upgrade. Contrary to some of today's biggest games, which have and will use Epic Games' Unreal Engine 5, Rockstar insists on using the RAGE engine to make the game world look and feel real. But, if you thought that Red Dead Redemption 2, which used the latest version of the RAGE engine, looked good, wait until you hear about what Rockstar is planning to do for GTA 6.
The latest rumor suggests that one of the major improvements in GTA 6 is its water physics.
Water physics refers to how water behaves in the game, including how it looks, moves, and interacts with players as well as objects. In previous games, water was more of a backdrop than a feature. But, with GTA 6, it's speculated that water might play a more active role - literally. We're not just talking about more realistic waves, improved swimming mechanics, or a more lifelike interaction between objects and water. It's believed that GTA 6 will have a completely new feature: surfing!
