Dan Houser, a key figure in the Grand Theft Auto franchise’s development, has revealed he hasn’t watched GTA 6 and intends to continue avoiding it. According to Video Games Chronicle, Houser made the statement about his approach to the upcoming title.
His decision to steer clear of the game stands in contrast to what many might expect from someone so central to the series’ creation. The reasoning behind his choice to avoid experiencing GTA 6 before its release wasn’t detailed in the report.
Houser’s stance is noteworthy given his extensive involvement with the franchise over many years. His continued distance from the finished product offers an unusual perspective on the development process at Rockstar Games.
For players counting down to launch, Houser’s deliberate separation from the final product underscores how the game represents a fresh creative direction for the studio.
