Fans were sent into a frenzy at The Announcement , having waited a long time for the follow-up, and rumours about it have rumbled for almost 10 Years .

Before Wednesday, the biggest news came unexpectedly last September, when an unprecedented leak surfaced online that contained over 90 videos and screenshots from an early development of GTA VI.

Rockstar acknowledged the hack as legitimate, " We recently suffered a network intrusion in which an unauthorized Third Party illegally accessed and downloaded confidential information from our systems, including early development footage for The Next Grand Theft Auto.

" We Are extremely disappointed to have any details of our next game shared With You All In this way. We will update everyone again soon and, of course, will properly introduce you to this next game when it's ready. "

The leak gave a First Look at possible storylines, characters and locations, although Rockstar insisted the gameplay seen was still in very early stages of creation.

The footage revealed a modern-day Vice City setting and depicted The Player characters, Jason and Lucia, entering a strip club and robbing a diner, suggesting that the main protagonists might work together in a Bonnie and Clyde-style story.

Before the release of GTA V in 2013, the longest wait for Grand Theft Auto game in the main series was five years.

With the advancements in Video Game technology, consoles and online gameplay, studios have been able to continuously update games rather than build an entirely new product From Scratch .

Mini games within games mean studios can make more content with less time and resources, while also sometimes charging a fee to play.

Rockstar, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc, has a reputation for creating visually impressive games with Top Quality graphics. The depiction of Los Santos in GTA V is still impressive a decade later, and to do that again takes time to develop.

Take-Two has patented new locomotive technology that will ensure Grand Theft Auto VI has " highly dynamic and realistic animations" and will see characters move and react realistically to their environments.

Grand Theft Auto is not the only series created and frequently updated by Rockstar Games . Open world Wild West shooter series Red Dead Redemption is Rockstar's second biggest seller and also receives frequent updates.

To satisfy The Hunger for GTA VI, Rockstar has worked on compilations and remasters of old instalments in The Franchise - But The Desire to play The Next chapter has never been higher.
