Could GTA 6 be a launch title for the Switch 2? It's an interesting thought that has been gaining traction lately, especially considering Rockstar's previous collaborations with Nintendo.
As a gamer, you know that waiting for a new console or game can be an agonizing experience. But as we all know, the Switch 2 is coming within the next 12 months and Rockstar has already admitted that they are in the process of creating GTA 6. However, neither company has released any information about when they will be released or even when they will be announced.
That hasn't stopped gamers from speculating, though. With the Switch 2 being highly unlikely to be revealed this year and GTA 6's release date only being a guess, people have been having fun imagining what the Switch 2's launch line-up might be, and one of those ideas is GTA 6.
Rockstar and Nintendo have actually had a long history of collaborations. The Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance had GTA games, and Chinatown Wars was an exclusive for the DS. While it didn't sell well, that hasn't stopped Rockstar from supporting the Switch 2. They recently released Red Dead Redemption for the Switch and may have plans for Red Dead Redemption 2 as well.
The big question is if the Switch 2 will be able to run GTA 6. It's likely that the game will push the PlayStation 5 and Xbox to their limits, but we've already seen that games like The Witcher 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2 are possible on the original Switch.
Assuming that the Switch 2 could run GTA 6, there's a good chance that the game will be released around the same time as the new console. Since GTA 6 hasn't been announced yet, autumn of 2024 seems to be a likely time for its release, which is also when the Switch 2 is expected to be released.
The Switch 2's launch line-up could be quite interesting. While a new mainline Zelda game is unlikely, Mario Kart 9 and a new 3D Mario or Donkey Kong game are definite possibilities. There could also be one or two minor titles, like 1-2-Switch.
What the console could really use are some hardcore credentials, something that pushes the limits graphically and is mature rated. GTA 6 could be the perfect game to prove the Switch 2 isn't just for kids and can handle major third party games.
It's impossible to tell if this is an actual possibility or just wishful thinking, but it's exciting to think that it could be a reality. While we wait for official announcements from Rockstar and Nintendo, all we can do is speculate.
