GTA 6 Weapon Change Is Copying The Wrong Rockstar Game

The latest in a seemingly endless string of leaks concerning GTA 6 seems to suggest that the anticipated and long-awaited sequel to GTA 5 will have some major weapon changes that source inspiration from previous Rockstar Games projects – specifically Max Payne 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Though developer Rockstar Games has remained tight-lipped on the vast majority of leaks, refusing to comment on anything other than to confirm the game is in development, these latest rumors, leaked in late 2023, appear to indicate that the GTA franchise’s long-implemented weapons system and gunplay are in for a monumental overhaul. While some are unquestionably for the better, others are potentially troubling.
