BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): The PlayStation Game Size profile found codes in the launch build of GTA 6 on PlayStation 5 that suggest a multiplayer mode. Some users speculate that this could be a sign that the online game starring Jason and Lucia could arrive sooner than expected.

Among the strings leaked by the dataminer, the mentions “joinSession”, “launchActivity” and “launchMultiplayerActivity” were found. They indicate that users will be able to create or join multiplayer sessions, which may refer to online mode.

It is worth noting that Rockstar Games confirmed that GTA 6 will only feature campaign mode at launch on November 19, when it launched pre-orders for the game at the end of June. The producer has shown signs that it will not talk about multiplayer mode anytime soon.

In October, Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier indicated that the expected launch of GTA 6 Online should only take place in 2027. According to him, the current version of Grand Theft Auto Online generates an estimated half a billion dollars in revenue per year, which makes it one of Rockstar’s most important products today.

It’s important to remember that GTA 6’s online mode arrived two weeks after the launch of the main campaign, while Red Dead Redemption II’s went live a month later.

The strings that suggest a multiplayer mode for GTA 6 are not even remotely the first leaks of information about the game. A new leak revealed 55 trophies from the story and new features on the XBOX.
