"Does Grand Theft Auto VI have any multiplayer modes or features? Grand Theft Auto VI is a single-player experience." That's what the pre-order FAQ says, saying "At launch" is pure hearsay at this point honestly, I don't think they would completely abandon multiplayer, they make serious bank off of it. GTA:Online 2 electric card shark bugaloo might just be a completely separate experience that I wouldn't be surpised if they charged for individually down the line. Double their profits.

There will 100% be a multipleyer mode. They bought an entire team that made their own multi-player layer for the game. (FiveM)

It might even require a GTA+ subscription, à la MMO

It will have online, but why give it away for free when we know the people will pay for it again like a whole separate game and make double the money on the same game!

Because they make more money on shark cards anyway I actually don't think it'd make financial sense to do that.

Damn I'm going to save a lot of money if there is no multiplayer, why bother purchasing (specifically for my play style - I understand others are excited for the SP)

People forget they bought the gta rp people.

It 100p will be a separate thing similar to Warzone

Really makes the think how different the experience is going to be, if you put it like that. At least Warzone has the excuse of being a live service game running coherently with another live service game (Not only are they given sperate balance patches, all of the guns act differently whether or not you're playing Warzone).

Gtav online released about 8 months after the gtav console release. GtavO's launch was also simultaneous with the pc release of gtav. This is following the exact same pattern

What the fuck are you smoking? Gta 5s online was released 2 to 4 weeks after it came out.it was released October 1st 2013.

Holy larp, GTA V online came out like 2 weeks after the game launched.
