The release of GTA 6 may not mean the end of GTA Online

Take-Two Interactive declared through recent statements that GTA Online will keep thriving despite the potential release of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6). CEO Strauss Zelnick recently expressed how his company handles popular legacy titles which suggests GTA Online will continue to receive support.
In an interview with the CEO, Take-Two intends to support games with persistent player engagement. The absence of direct confirmation about GTA Online's long-term duration did not stop Rockstar from supporting the platform based on player engagement. The player base of millions continues to generate significant revenue, which sustains GTA Online as one of the most popular active experiences.
Rockstar Games tends to support its older titles as long as customer interest continues. The enormous success of GTA Online strongly indicates that Rockstar Games will maintain support for the game even after GTA 6 becomes available. Rockstar has yet to outline the coexistence strategy between GTA 6 and GTA Online, although there are possibilities for continued development of the latter. The statements from Zelnick indicate that GTA Online will continue to thrive as long as players stay active in the game.
