Rumors of Rockstar Games planning to release Grand Theft Auto 6 gained further ground after the company's president, Leslie Benzies revealed that fans should keep their eyes open, as it was considering various ideas for making sequels.

Rockstar launched the Grand Theft Auto video game series in October 1997 and it quickly became one of the highest selling video game franchises in history. The game was initially available only on Sony's Playstation, but can now be found on just about any platform available at the store today. Over 150 million copies of the Grand Theft Auto series have been sold across the world, with the most popular being Grand Theft Auto 4, which sold over 25 million copies. Over the period 1997 to 2007, Rockstar has released five titles, though gamers have been able to enjoy only two titles, with the sixth one likely to arrive soon.

Rockstar has hinted that it is developing a sixth installment to the series and media reports suggest that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be available for consoles in the next year or so. The Grand Theft Auto series is all about missions across vast locations and excited fans are now speculating on where Grand Theft Auto 6 will be set. Rockstar's Creative VP, Dan Houser had earlier stated that having the game set in different parts of the world was a possibility and the gameplay could be made flexible in different ways.

Some reports suggest that that the game could be set in London, as it is similar to Los Santos, while a fan made trailer seems to show a Middle East setting, where the main character can be seen fighting with terrorists. There are also reports that Grand Theft Auto 6 could be set in the continental United States, featuring the states of either Oregon or Texas. While the location of Grand Theft Auto 6 still remains a mystery, gamers can be sure that the sixth installment to the series will be available for the Xbox One, Playstation 4 and the Windows PC, followed by its mobile application versions.
