At this moment, fans just need the slightest of hints from any way possible to speculate a new theory about GTA 6, and the recent rumor about a dedicated companion app is just the latest addition to that.
Since GTA 6 Trailer 2 dropped, there has been nothing but new theories and speculations everyday as fans are leaving no opportunity to entice the game. For example: fans were seen building the same house as Jason’s in various other games, on the other hand, many fans found uncanny resemblance with GTA: Vice City.
GTA 6 rumored to feature a companion app
The trend of companion apps is slowly fading day by day. Not only does it keep a note of all your in-game possessions, like cosmetics, stats, quests, and more, it also gives an enhanced experience outside the game itself. Many major franchises feature this aspect like Destiny 2, Call of Duty, and many more. Now it seems GTA 6 will be following the same path as well.
This round of speculation began when Rockstar North posted a job listing on its website seeking employees for the role of Mobile Engineer. According to the listing, the role demands the understanding of iOS and Android app development to maintain Rockstar’s mobile platform.
There are companion apps for GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, and official mobile ports of various Rockstar titles like GTA: San Andreas, Max Payne, Bully, and many more. But none of them needs any sudden update.
So, the job listing for a mobile app developer points straight towards a potential GTA 6 companion app. And as we are less than a year away from the launch of this highly anticipated title, this speculation finds a more solid base.
However, nothing is official and Rockstar is yet to announce if there will be any companion app for the game. But having a dedicated companion app with enhanced features than the contemporaries would be actually great.
Players will be able to stay connected with the game even when they are not on their main system by picking virtual calls and messages from the NPCs through the app. Or maybe players will be able to sync their music library via this app to listen to their favorite song in the
rumored Spotify-like music streaming service in the game.
