The Pop Culture References We Expect in GTA 6
The Grand Theft Auto series always includes plenty of pop culture references, and since the release of GTA 5 in 2013, a lot has changed. As fans eagerly await the announcement of the new game, they can’t help but speculate about the potential references and satirical elements it may contain.
New Job Possibilities: Doordash and UberEats
One amusing suggestion made by Reddit users is the ability to work as a Doordash or UberEats driver in the game. Delivery services have become a significant part of our lives in the past decade, so it would be interesting to explore this dynamic in GTA 6.
Influencer Culture and TikTok Jokes
Influencer culture is also expected to be parodied in the game, with Rockstar Games likely taking a humorous approach. Fans speculate that TikTok and its culture could play a significant role in the game’s jokes and satire.
Reflecting Modern Times: Cryptocurrency, Tech Billionaires, Climate Change, COVID-19, and Social Media
Fans have discussed several themes that have emerged in recent years and could be included in GTA 6. These include the rise of cryptocurrency and associated scams, the prominence of tech billionaires, the impact of climate change, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the influence of social media.
The Power of Disinformation and Public Activism
Another aspect that has changed in the past decade is the awareness surrounding disinformation and public unrest. The game may explore how disinformation can be used for heists or to manipulate the police. Additionally, the increased participation in protests and political activism by ordinary citizens could play a significant role in the game, with players potentially using social media to organize protests and distract law enforcement.
No matter what is included in GTA 6, the game is almost guaranteed to be a smash hit, given the overwhelming success of GTA 5.
