Dan Houser says he is steering clear of GTA 6 to protect his new projects
Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser says he plans to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI so it doesn't distract or disrupt the games he is working on now.
According to GamesRadar+, Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser says he is deliberately keeping his distance from Grand Theft Auto VI. His reason is that he does not want the game to "distract or disrupt" the new games he is currently making.
Houser's position is summed up in a short line quoted by the outlet: "I will try and avoid it." He frames the decision as a practical one about protecting his current work, not as a comment on the quality of Rockstar's next release.
His stance stands out because of his history with the series. As a co-founder of Rockstar, Houser was closely tied to the studio's earlier work, and fans have long been curious about how former key figures see the company's most anticipated project.
The report does not say whether Houser had any involvement in GTA 6 or what he knows about it, and the summary gives no details about his new projects. Rockstar has not commented on his remarks.
