GTA 6 may not have a release date, but Leslie Benzies, formerly of Rockstar Games, is preparing his studio's first title MindsEye for launch this Summer here's what you need to knowTech11:52, 13 Feb 2025MindsEye definitely gives off GTA vibesTake-Two Interactive recently confirmed that GTA 6 is launching in Fall 2025, and while last night's State of Play gave us a Borderlands 4 release date which narrowed that window somewhat, another title arguably stole the show.With Grand Theft Auto 6 absent once again, it was a former Rockstar developer who made an appearance instead. Leslie Benzies, who was the lead developer on GTA for GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, GTA 4 and GTA 5 (including GTA Online) finally showed off gameplay from MindsEye.The game, which marks the debut of Build a Rocket Boy Games, looks a lot like a near-future GTA, with car chases and weapon-based combat, but one question remains.The trailer above is certainly action-packed, flitting from wartime scenes to futuristic technology and what looks like an open-world city to explore.The footage, which is all captured in-game, looks incredible (almost like Grand Theft Automaton), but fans are curious about where this leaves Everywhere.The ambitious project, which would serve as a place to build games and play them, was originally tied into MindsEye when it was first announced, but given this now appears to be a standalone title published by IO Interactive (of Hitman fame), that may not be the case anymore.MindsEye has more of a sci-fi side to it than GTA"Play as Jacob Diaz, a former elite soldier fitted with The MindsEye, a mysterious neural implant that haunts him with fragmented memories of a covert mission that changed his life forever," a press release from the studio explains."Fight to uncover the truth in a world where AI, high-tech experimentation, and unchecked military power shape every encounter. Jacob isnt the only one searching for answers, forces working from the shadows may be more powerful and dangerous than he ever imagined."Get ready for intense combat - on foot, behind the wheel, and in the air - where every decision can mean the difference between survival and defeat."The press release also mentions that tactics and using the environment will play a key part in "third-person shooter encounters".Today's State of Play also revealed the release date for the Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater remake (which leaked earlier), underlining how massive 2025 is for games and that's before we consider the Switch 2.For more on GTA 6, be sure to check out the fans getting their excuses for missing work on the release date, as well as Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick hinting at an eventual PC release.Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.
