Elon Musk Loves Playing Video Games But Still Won’t Play GTA 6: Here’s The Reason – News18

Elon Musk is busy handling multiple companies these days but still finds time to enjoy recreational activities like playing video games. But the X Chief isn’t going to play the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) 6 edition which will be released in 2025. The popular GTA franchise is a worldwide hit and even the 2-minute trailer which came out for the GTA 6 game has garnered over 80 million views in 24 hours.

So, why is Musk not keen on playing this series? Replying to a query on X, Musk admitted that he doesn’t like the crime nature of the GTA series and that’s why he has not played any of the GTA editions and is not going to play the next GTA 6 edition either. Tried, but didn’t like doing crime. GTA5 required shooting police officers in the opening scene. Just couldn’t do it,” Musk said.

His comments got mixed responses on social media, with some asking whether he was trolling about the game, and one user called him a ‘good guy.’

The official trailer on Rockstar Games’ YouTube channel has revealed that “GTA VI” is set to be released in 2025, following a leak on social media earlier this week. The company has further revealed that the game is scheduled to release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S in 2025. Unfortunately, there’s no information about whether or when the game will be available on PC.

The GTA 6 trailer unveils Lucia, its first female protagonist. The trailer kicks off with Lucia in a prison setting, and as it progresses, Lucia and her boyfriend are seen pulling off Bonnie and Clyde-style heists in Vice City.

Rockstar Games, in a statement about GTA 6, shared that the game takes players to the state of Leonida. This region includes the vibrant, neon-lit streets of Vice City and beyond, promising the most extensive and immersive evolution in the Grand Theft Auto series to date.
