Rockstar will not abandon single-player mode

Rockstar North developers guarantee that single-player mode will remain an important part of the studio's future projects. This likely refers to GTA 6, but also to implementing single-player elements into the online component, as seen in the new expansion for GTA Online.

The December DLC The Cayo Perico Heist can be played both in co-op and solo. It also features high-quality in-game cutscenes, which are a hallmark of the studio.

“[The ability to play solo online] is something we have been thinking about for a while. Our community has also been talking about it. We want individuals to experience the same thing as teams. Now you see that we will be adding more and more single-player elements to the online mode,” says project manager Scott Butchard in an interview with GQ Magazine.

The interviewer asked the developer whether Rockstar intends to continue creating stories for solo players.

“Absolutely,” replied another project lead, Tarek Hamad.

Throughout the entire conversation, the developers never once uttered the words “GTA 6”. Rockstar is keeping the project under wraps for now.
