Red Dead Redemption 2 seems to be the perfect testing ground for Rockstar Games to perfect GTA 6.

GTA 6 will be released sometime next year and the gaming community has high expectations. The developers have always prioritized making each project look better and more advanced than its predecessor that set the bar high, and it seems like they took their time.

Game development is a lot more complicated than you might think and for good reason. Rockstar Games always knew how to improve and took all the lessons they had learned and applied them to future projects while players waited and saw what modern triple-A games would look like.

Rockstar Games is one of the leading game developers and always managed to raise the bar after each project. Game development forces the developers' hands to make some tough choices like choosing what to keep and let go.
