Former Rockstar dev believes Grand Theft Auto VI on Switch 2 wouldn’t ‘even make sense’

A former Rockstar developer has weighed in on the technical feasibility of bringing Grand Theft Auto VI to Nintendo’s upcoming console. According to the developer, a Switch 2 version of GTA 6 wouldn’t “even make sense,” citing apparent limitations in how the hardware could handle the game’s demands.

The comment reflects ongoing industry discussion about which platforms will eventually support Rockstar’s next-generation title. While no official announcements have been made regarding Switch 2 compatibility, the former developer’s assessment suggests significant hurdles would exist.

For players anticipating GTA 6’s arrival, this reinforces that the game’s scope and technical requirements may define which systems can realistically support it going forward.
