  • GTA 6 has teased poking fun at influencer culture, but a surprising game serves as a strong reminder to not go too heavy on the satire.

The article from MSN discusses the potential pitfalls and considerations for character representation in the upcoming video game "Grand Theft Auto VI" (GTA 6). It highlights the game's setting in Vice City, a fictionalized version of Miami, and the need for careful handling of character types, particularly those that could be seen as stereotypical or offensive.

The article also mentions the anticipation around how GTA 6 will evolve its narrative and character development to meet modern expectations while maintaining the franchise's signature satirical edge.
