In an earlier announcement, Rockstar Games revealed the expanded and enhanced version of GTA 5, and that GTA Online will now come out in March 2022. But this doesn’t seem to bother GTA fans; as they wait for signs of the next Grand Theft Auto game, GTA 6.
GTA 6 has been the subject of various theories and rumors, but players are losing their patience given it’s been eight years since GTA 5’s launch. The obsession with the next GTA title has grown to a point where fans have started questioning Take-Two and Rockstar Games everywhere. From live TV shows, social media outlets, and YouTube channels all the way to official blog posts.
Now, it looks like Rockstar Games have finally had enough. In a recent video, popular Grand Theft Auto YouTuber MrBossFTW revealed that the devs have now banned any discussions regarding GTA 6 on their official YouTube channel.

Even though Rockstar has every right to do so, no one can say for sure how the GTA fans will react to it. It won’t stop the fans completely, since there definitely are ways around it. For instance, using “GTA VI” or “Grand Theft Auto 6”. What are your thoughts on the developer’s recent actions?
