GTA 6 has been in development for over a decade because the stakes are higher now. Players expect open worlds that feel alive, not just look good. Rockstar’s using AI to make that happen - smarter NPCs, reactive environments, and systems that evolve over time.
This is the future of entertainment. And it’s already more expensive, more complex, and more influential than most ''real-world'' projects.
