A new leak claims that Grand Theft Auto VI could feature a massive 75-hour main storyline, making it the longest campaign Rockstar has ever produced. The insider behind the rumor says the game will open with a two-hour prologue and span five full chapters, with the fourth one being the longest. Interestingly, the final chapter is said to take place outside the United States and is reportedly almost finished, with the team now polishing up the graphics.
If true, this would more than double the length of previous GTA campaigns. GTA V’s story takes around 32 hours to finish, while GTA IV’s sits at about 35. Even Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar’s most cinematic experience to date, clocks in at roughly 50–55 hours—still well below the 75-hour mark being suggested here.
Beyond the main story, GTA VI is also rumored to include around 1,000 dynamic world events and hundreds of side missions, promising a game world packed with activities to keep players busy for months. This level of content fits with speculation that Rockstar’s budget for the project is hovering around $2 billion, which would make it one of the most expensive games ever developed.
While these details have sparked excitement, not all fans are convinced. Some expect a more realistic campaign length of 40–50 hours, which would still be record-breaking for the series. Rockstar hasn’t confirmed any of the leaks yet, but with the game expected to launch in May 2026, the anticipation around GTA VI’s scale and scope continues to grow.
Would you like me to also trim this into a shorter news-style blurb (just 2–3 compact paragraphs) for quicker reading?
