After weeks of trailers, extended interviews, magazine articles and exclusive hands-off gameplay reviews for a range of creators, it looks like Rockstar aren’t done showing off Grand Theft Auto VI.
A new article from The Guardian has provided more brief, yet interesting, examples of Rockstar Games’ incredible attention to detail. During her visit to Rockstar North in Edinburgh, Guardian journalist Keza MacDonald highlights the extreme care that Rockstar take when making a title:
Later, MacDonald goes on to explain that her showcase of Vice City (provided by Rockstar Games studio head Rob Nelson and fellow senior executive Jennifer Kolbe) presented a scenario where protagonist Jason Duval eats a Hot Dog, or can multitask with multiple items – as he sips a beer in one hand, and takes a bite from a donut in the other.
MacDonald goes on to highlight a scenario where Jason starts running, armed with a six pack of beer (similar to Trailer 2), he will move the case into the crook of his arm, with the liquid realistically moving around the bottles. She also points out that Nelson became briefly upset during a robbery, as he pointed out the placement of the security guards feet ‘didn’t look right’.
Later in the article, Nelson reminisces on the early elements of production his teams’ research trips to Miami. He recalls late-night trips to Miami Nightclubs, followed by a hangover-fuelled day being driven around a Floridian racetrack. The team also rode along with police, and hung around in weird bars – no doubt an inspiration for the widely seen Rusty Anchor bar in-game.
More details regarding MacDonald’s’ trip to Rockstar North is expected in the Guardian’s Saturday Magazine, later this week. What do you think about the newly released gameplay details, and, are you excited to hear more on Saturday? Let us know down in the comment section below.

A new article from The Guardian has provided more brief, yet interesting, examples of Rockstar Games’ incredible attention to detail. During her visit to Rockstar North in Edinburgh, Guardian journalist Keza MacDonald highlights the extreme care that Rockstar take when making a title:
“…it is gratuitously, absurdly detailed, from the macro level to the micro; from architecture and geography down to the smallest of details – such as the clothes that the pedestrians are wearing, the street art, the flyers on cafe walls and the insides of fridges”
