T-Pain reveals GTA 6 project, quits GTA 5 role-play

Jan 13, 2024 12:13 AM

Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6), the highly anticipated installment from Rockstar Games, is already stirring buzz as T-Pain has revealed his involvement in its development. Still veiled in secrecy, GTA VI captured the gaming world's attention with its official reveal in 2023 and is now drawing further excitement with the news of T-Pain's contribution. Rockstar has a tradition of working with celebrated figures, and it appears that T-Pain is the latest addition. However, as consequence, he has had to cease role-playing on NoPixel, a popular GTA 5 role-play server, as requested by Rockstar.

Fans of the Grand Theft Auto series, particularly those who enjoy the role-playing element, might feel the absence of the award-winning artist since he was known to be an active member of the NoPixel community. With all eyes on GTA VI's scheduled release in 2025, Rockstar has been making strategic partnerships, even teaming up with the modding team responsible for enabling role-play servers, which T-Pain humorously pointed out. Despite this ironic development, the studio is currently prioritizing the single-player narrative, which they highlighted in the game's initial trailer.

While the details of T-Pain's involvement with GTA 6 remain undisclosed, it's clear that his and other artists' collaboration with Rockstar could signify a diverse and engaging world in the upcoming game. As the release date approaches, the community continues to speculate and eagerly awaits new information.

What do we know about the release of Grand Theft Auto VI?

Grand Theft Auto VI's official release is slated for 2025, and while specific details about the game are sparse, Rockstar Games is focusing on a single-player story, as indicated by the first trailer they released. The game remains one of the most anticipated titles with a promise of an immersive world, much like its predecessors in the globally successful GTA series.

Having T-Pain jump onboard with GTA VI is like mixing two explosive cultural ingredients; it's gonna add some dope vibes to an already hyped game. It's a sweet—but slightly ironic—move to see Rockstar tapping into the role-play scene he's stepping back from, and it just amps up the curiosity about what they're cooking up for 2025.
