A GTA San Andreas developer does not rule out that GTA 6 is making use of animation technology supported by artificial intelligence

The expectation that GTA 6 is generating is really through the roof. It is undeniable that the next video game of the successful saga of Rockstar Games has been one of the most anticipated for several years, hence its first trailer managed to break all records for its number of views, but it also seems that the title is ready to mark a before and after.

At least that’s what he claims. Obbe Vermeija former developer of the company who already worked on other installments, such as GTA: San Andreas and also on GTA III, and who recently held an interview with SanInPlay

In it, she wanted to talk about this trailer for the sixth part of the franchise, about which she has nothing but praise to make clear how much it impacted her.

Above all, he wanted to focus on one of the sequences in particular in this first preview, such as the beach scene, pointing out that “everyone seems to be doing something else. Each character has their own animation.” And it is true that all the scenes in the video are brutal due to the amount of details that parade through it, which makes Vermeij think that it could be due to Rockstar being using a new type of technology.

According to his statements, it would be a very novel technology that would be related to animation and artificial intelligence

. In fact, the latter is a matter that is constantly generating controversy in the industry, as there are too many people who do not see its use in a very good light, but Vermeij is convinced that it is the next step to follow:

I think it’s time for a revolution where animation is no longer hand-drawn, but more AI-driven and physics-driven. We did some of that in GTA 4. So I think if anyone’s going to make that step, to AI-driven animation, it’s going to be Rockstar.

In any case, this is nothing more than an assumption that he makes himself, since the company has not made any statements on the matter and has not hinted at anything that might suggest that he is right in his words. We will have to keep an eye on how the development of GTA 6which is expected to be released Fall 2025 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
