The upcoming title, set for release in late 2025, has been a subject of debate among its die-hard fans, focusing on what features the game should include, with some turning to ideas from other games for inspiration. One such suggestion involves borrowing a feature from Ubisoft’sWatch Dogs 2.

GTA 6 Should Copy Watch Dogs 2’s Rival Gang Interactions

InWatch Dogs 2, Ubisoft used all its flair with the sophisticated system where different factions could interact and even fight against each other in real-time. This would occasionally happen, while players could witness or provoke these conflicts without direct participation.

Legal factions would band together against a common enemy, whether it was the player or another faction. On the other hand, illegal factions, such as gangs, would start battles not only with each other but also against law enforcement, creating in-game chaos.

These interactions were accompanied by on-screen messages, notifying the player when a conflict was occurring, making the world come alive.

Integrating this feature into an already impeccable universe that theGTAfranchise has built over the decades, would only improve immersion.

Imagine driving through the streets of Vice City inGTA 6when suddenly a spontaneous shootout between rival gangs breaks out or being caught in the crossfire between a gang and the police. This could make players feel like they are experiencing real-life scenarios in gang-run cities.

Players Have Many Ideas About the Feature

One player took to Reddit to share the idea of gang and faction interactions and wars being a part ofGTA 6.

This sparked significant discussion among fans, with fans not shying away from sharing their own ideas and insights.

One player said that if rival gangs were to come into contact, they should start with a melee brawl that could escalate into a full-blown gunfight if tensions rise or more members join in.

Another player pointed out and praised theWatch Dogs 2system and how it provided different outcomes depending on the situation.

Other players have said thatGTA 6can step up a notch thanks to the development in technology, especially AI which can add depth to various NPCs and make them feel more real.

WhileGTA 6is a long way from its release date, fans of the franchise have been awaiting it for years, as the previousGTAtitle came out in 2013. These speculations and ideas are not surprising as fans won’t settle for a game that isn’t perfect.

Whether Rockstar resorts to fan ideas, or they have something similar in store, remains to be seen when the game actually comes out.
