Summary

• GTA 6 is in its final stages of development, and it could offer a potentially wild driving experience with the inclusion of self-driving cars.
• Self-driving car chases could add a new exhilarating layer to high-speed pursuits with the police in the upcoming GTA 6 game.
• Fans have high expectations for GTA 6, expecting the action and combat to be taken to another level, and potentially featuring intense autonomous vehicle sequences could help with that.

As the wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 continues, the anticipation for Rockstar's next big release grows by the minute, and many fans are searching for any inkling of evidence as to what will be included in the game. The first trailer for GTA 6 gave fans a small peek into what the game has to offer, but there are still tons of questions when it comes to its overall features.

Although the game isn't set to release until next year, GTA 6 is in its final stages of development, meaning that eager fans will hopefully be getting another update sometime in the near future. When it comes to the gameplay of the GTA franchise, it goes without saying that cars play a massive role in the series, and GTA 6 could benefit from embracing some of the wilder innovations that some car companies have attempted in recent years.

GTA 6 Could Pull a Wild Card With Its Driving Mechanics

There have been tons of theories about GTA 6 at this point, but there seems to be a surprising amount of silence about what kind of cars could be included in the game. When it comes to car innovation, Tesla has made waves with its ambitions of self-driving cars, and this could be a fantastic addition to GTA 6. Including a self-driving car in the mix could result in the perfect recipe for some incredibly fun gameplay that hasn't been attempted yet in the franchise.

Self-Driving Car Chases

One of the obvious ways a self-driving car would be the most fun is during high-speed chases with the police. Crime is at the forefront in GTA, and trying to escape the police in various situations is one of the most exciting parts of GTA. The use of a self-driving car during a high-speed chase would add another layer to the situation, since players would be able to shoot at whoever is being chased or is chasing the player in a more effective way.

The thought of trying to evade the police or another rival and being able to shoot at them through a sunroof as the self-driving car takes care of navigation would be awesome. An even better scenario would involve both main characters of GTA 6 taking advantage of an autonomous car. GTA 6's Bonnie and Clyde-inspired protagonists would seem unstoppable if they could both go head-to-head with the police while not having to worry about a driver. The thought of Lucia shooting through a sunroof or window while Jason defends them from the hood of the car would be the crazy game-changer that would put the game over the top in a hilariously absurd way.

Ramping Up The Action In GTA 6

Due to the long wait between entries, many fans have high expectations for GTA 6, and that means Rockstar is in a tough spot if it can't deliver something that is truly on another level. A lot of fans are expecting GTA 6 to improve on the features that have established the franchise as such a great series, and making the action and combat even more intense is expected from many players. Taking a chance on something like self-driving cars is something that would blow the minds of tons of fans, and the potential for great action sequences that an autonomous vehicle would bring is exciting to think about.

It's unknown when the next trailer for GTA 6 will drop, but the game entering its final stages of development is a promising sign for fans waiting for the next crumb of evidence. GTA 6's release may feel like it's ages away, but based on Rockstar's track record of going bigger than its predecessors, the next chapter in the GTA franchise will likely be worth the wait.
