GTA 6 multiplayer is coming after all, according to Twitch CEO

Rockstar Games plans to deliver multiplayer functionality for GTA 6 after the game’s initial launch, according to confirmation from Twitch’s CEO reported by Polygon. The executive’s statement indicates that multiplayer won’t be available at release but will arrive as a post-launch addition to the single-player experience. This aligns with Rockstar’s historical approach to the Grand Theft Auto franchise, where multiplayer components have often rolled out following the base game’s debut. The confirmation comes as anticipation builds around the title’s upcoming release. For players counting down to launch day, this reveals that the full online experience won’t be immediately accessible, meaning the early weeks will focus on the single-player campaign before transitioning into the multiplayer space later.
