GTA 5 is going to remain the go-to virtual crime haven for quite some time to come, like it or not. GTA 6’s console release is all the way off in November, and there’s still no word on when it’ll come to PC, meaning we probably won’t see it in 2026. But the new GTA Online Mansion Raid mode has delivered in a way I didn’t expect, drawing inspiration from tactical multiplayer games like CSGO and Rainbow Six Siege. Ultimately, it’s still somewhat restricted by the limitations of Grand Theft Auto 5’s underlying core, but it does already have me imagining where Rockstar might evolve the format in its long-awaited sequel. |
