Sometimes in the gaming industry, gamers just know something is in development before it’s ever confirmed. This could be due to a cliffhanger, sales, general popularity, or just a general sense.

Despite their content being opposites, these two franchises share one thing in common: the fate of Mario Kart 9 and Grand Theft Auto 6.

Despite GTA 5 first releasing nearly 9 years ago, it continues to top sales charts. It is, in fact, the most profitable entertainment product of all time. With sales like that, Rockstar doesn’t really need to release Grand Theft Auto
