GTA 6 Release Date Update: Will Rockstar ditch Grand Theft Auto 5 cheats like Red Dead 2? (Pic: Daily Express)

Red Dead Redemption 2 was one of last year's runaway success stories. The game was the best-selling title of the year and tempted even none-gamers into playing through its incredible, cinematic story.

Now, all eyes are on Rockstar to deliver GTA 6. Even though we're not expecting to see the game for a good few years yet, looking back on Red Dead and other GTA games, you start to see the direction Rockstar is heading in.

With that in mind, it's interesting to see an article from Dexerto that raises the question of cheats in GTA6.

Cheats are a Rockstar institution – the up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, shoot, brake codes are synonymous with the series: tiered weapon sets, tank spawns, infinite money, no wanted level… it's all part and parcel of the GTA experience.

But maybe not for much longer.

Red Dead Redemption 2 altered how Rockstar implemented cheats: it needed you to have an item or to have bought a specific newspaper first, and inputting a cheat would prevent you from saving, earning achievements or going Online.

Does that set a precedent for the future of Rockstar games? Well, as the developer moves more and more towards high-end cinematic experiences and wants to merge gaming and film… it looks like we may well see a drop-off in how the studio implements cheats.

Of course, GTA and Red Dead are markedly different series, and you never know – maybe Rockstar will come up with another inventive way of having players unlock and use cheat codes in due time.

Remember in GTA IV, you had to open your phone and dial the cheat code in? We imagine something similar may happen in GTA VI. Maybe.

Last week, we may have seen some of the first information about Grand Theft Auto 6 start to surface, thanks to a leaker that uploaded some pretty interesting information to Pastebin.
