Legendary Rockstar Games Designer Reveals the Only Way He Will Contribute to GTA 6

Rockstar has created some of the finest video games of all time. The firm has created a reputation for itself with its open world and excellent narrative. Rockstar has numerous gems in its crown, including the Grand Theft Auto series, Red Dead Redemption 1&2, and underrated titles like LA Noir and Bully.

All of these games featured the greatest graphics, background music, and conversations. Another thing it excelled at was its cover art, which included classic characters and locales on the game’s loading screen. Many people will remember them for the title songs that accompanied the game’s distinctive character art when it first booted up.

Notably, all these character arts were made by the same legendary artist named Stephen Bliss. But why he left and will he return to make art for GTA 6 are the burning topics of the hour.

Bliss will only return to Grand Theft Auto on one condition

In a recent Tweet by a Rockstar insider, he is said to have communicated to the legendary artist on Instagram asking if he might return to make the cover art for GTA 6. To which the legendary artist replied that if fans want him to return as the main cover artist, then they will have to file a petition to Rockstar.

Notably, Rockstar in the past few years had been getting backlash from fans and critics for going too harsh on its developers and employees. Stephen Bliss, although in an interview, told IBtimes that he was going to look forward to his own ventures from now on.

When asked why he decided to leave, Bliss said, “I started seeing my overall life as a slow sprint towards death and had an overwhelming urge to make my own personal art before it was too late. Even though Rockstar gave me huge creative freedom and allowed me to paint what I felt inspired by, as long as it complemented the Rockstar DNA, I was obsessed by characters/themes/paintings that I wanted to create for myself but that wouldn’t have fitted with the Rockstar DNA. I wanted to create without any restrictions and commit to making my own art full time.”
