Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I am incredibly excited about the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto 6. The GTA series has been a staple of my gaming life, and I have been eagerly anticipating the next installment for years. The fact that the announcement tweet has already shattered records is a testament to the massive amount of hype surrounding this game. I can't wait to see what Rockstar has in store for us this time around.
I am particularly interested in the rumors that GTA VI will be set in Vice City and will include two playable characters. Vice City is one of my favorite cities in the GTA universe, and I think it would be amazing to see it reimagined with the latest technology. Two playable characters would also add a lot of variety to the gameplay, and I think it would be really fun to switch between them during missions.
