The next big title in the Grand Theft Auto series is announced, and fans are waiting for GTA 6. And while waiting, some fans went exploring with creative ideas.

GTA 6 has been the biggest sensation in the modern-day gaming industry. The long-running franchise of Rockstar Games has garnered a huge fan following ever since the success of GTA Vice City. And since then, the franchise saw one hit after the other.

While the reasoning behind its success hugely depended on world-building, you can never rule out the several generational effects. And the most popular of the lot, GTA V flourished over the years all because of its immersive Online aspect that allowed players to be creative.

With GTA V already released across several platforms for almost a decade now, there was a need for change. And Rockstar is set to deliver. However, the wait is too long. And to kill time or maybe even to help out the devs figure out stuff, the community chipped in with their ideas.

There are a plethora of creative ideas that churned up around the community. While it would be impossible to showcase all of them, here are some such ideas that might even end up appearing in the final game.

GTA 6 community shows love and support for the franchise

Grand Theft Auto franchise has been one of the biggest names in the history of gaming. Not only because of the number of titles under its banner, but because of the quality of content. In current times, technological advancement has taken people’s creativity for a ride. And as a result, the following happened in the GTA 6 community.

This image was created by a Reddit user going by the name MrNoobster09 who listed a bunch of art styles for GTA 6 over a brief interval. This artwork fits very well with the tone of the GTA genre adding a little bit of personal touch from the creator.

While there is no proof that any of the characters in the image are actually in the game, they might still be. What if both Jason and Lucia are in the image but aged up to some time in the future?

Interactive UI design for character creation

The innovative artwork shows a similar type of character creation window as seen in GTA Online. It showcases a character taking a mug shot where you get to choose the way the character looks like. And it is as detailed as it gets with minute details to the grain.

This might be brought to the freshly baked Online title of GTA 6 adding a new set of immersiveness. While this is a feature suitable for GTA Online 2, who knows if it becomes more helpful? With no information regarding the game, there might be scope for improvement. The devs might just allow you to create your very own character for the first time.

If you are familiar with Vice City, the image above should bring back some nostalgia. A community member shared their own ideas for an improv GTA Online 2 Landing Page. The image showcases the Ocean View hotel in its full grandeur touched by the seaside breeze. Below you can see all the options that could possibly be available while playing GTA Online 2.

The above image showcases an extremely bootleg version of the creator’s thinking. The UI is extremely barebone all while being descriptive. While certain texts work as the Lorem Ipsum of graphics, the illustrations speak for themselves.

The creator thought hard about how to simplify the character wheel and found a pie chart fitting three possible choices (as of now). Two of them feature the confirmed protagonists, Jason and Lucia. What is the best thing about this UI you ask? Nope, it’s not the character wheel, not even the focus(?) bar under the health bar. It is the returning legends, the body stats.

Lost in translations after GTA San Andreas, fans have been waiting for Rockstar Games to reintroduce the feature into the franchise. Maybe this is finally time for them to add the feature once again.

Inspired by the minimalistic features of Red Dead Redemption 2, this fan chose to showcase it on the GTA V career progress menu. This brings much more angular geometry with straightforward rectangles distinguishing your needs.

While this UI isn’t much different from the original one, knowing that GTA 6 is pit somewhere in the 80s era in Vice City, it just might suit the setting. With GTA Vice City coming out with a limited polygon 3D era, this might bring back some good old memories.

Now, those are some of the best bits and pieces of creativity we found over the internet and Reddit community. It is still uncertain when the title is set to release and when new information will be handed out. But rest assured, the title is on its way, and knowing Rockstar, it will be a bang!
