GTA 5 players are proposing a group drive around Los Santos before the end of an era, with GTA 6 on the horizon and slated for launch later this year but you'll need plenty of gasTech15:54, 24 Feb 2025GTA Online could continue even after GTA 6 arrivesIt feels surreal that GTA 5 launched in 2013 and now, after so long waiting, Grand Theft Auto 6 is slated to launch this year.The game has persisted across three console generations, seen a PC port, and had GTA Online keep it going in lieu of single-player DLC. It really has been some journey for the likes of Franklin, Michael, Trevor, and the huge community they've helped foster.Still, with its numbered successor waiting in the wings, it's perhaps no surprise we're all feeling a bit misty-eyed for GTA 5 and fans have formulated a fantastic way to honour a game that will go down in history as one of the greatest of all time.Content cannot be displayed without consentPosting on X (formerly Twitter), the GTA 6 Unlimited account shared a map of Los Santos with the caption "The night before GTA 6 releases. One last drive."As the picture shows, the drive in question is one that takes in the entirety of the Los Santos area, running from the urban sprawl in the south up to the mountains and more and it's inspired the community."Would be pretty epic if full servers participated in like a group drive," one commenter said."Bro driving this route with the bros one more time is gonna be so emotional" said one fan of the word 'bro', while another asked how long it would take (some estimate less than 10 minutes, in case you're wondering).Given the GTA Online fanbase's desire to blow everything up, one player even suggested a fun way to sunset Los Santos."At the end of the drive, a random player destroys everyone and the server ends after a slow fade to black."Last week, the CEO of Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two Interactive, spoke to IGN about GTA Online's future once GTA 6 arrives.Im going to speak theoretically only because Im not going to talk about a particular project when an announcement hasnt been made. But generally speaking, we support our properties when the consumers are involved with those titles, said Zelnick."As an example, we launched NBA 2K Online in China, I think originally in 2012 if Im not mistaken. And then we launched NBA 2K Online 2 in China in 2017. If Im not mistaken. We did not sunset Online. They both are still in the market and they serve consumers and theyre alive and we have this massive audience."Article continues below"So weve shown a willingness to support legacy titles when a community wants to be engaged with them.In case you missed it, GTA 5 fans on PC are getting a free update to convert it to the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.
