Many fans are waiting for the features of the latest game, Grand Theft Auto 6(GTA 6), by one of the most successful game franchises of Rockstar Games.

A report by Day Herald states that Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes were slated to be featured in the upcoming GTA 6 game. The website added that the game maker, Rockstar, will link GTA 6 with another hit franchise, "Red Dead Redemption." Gosling will reportedly play a descendent of John Marster, a lead character. It is not known if the developers will be using Gosling's voice or appearance.

According to Breathe Cast, Grand Theft Auto 6 is expected to be available to the public in 2018 in both PlayStation and PC.

International Business Times reports that fans are clamoring for an America-wide map. In the previous versions, the games are only set in one city. The outlet added that it may be an amazing feat, but it would be hard to develop as GTA 5 was just released in 2013 and with the impending release of GTA 6 in 2018, there might be no time. Even more so if Rockstar were to optimize the game for next-generation consoles.

Christian Post reports that Rockstar Studios founder Dan Houser confirmed that a female character will be introduced in the new game. The report added that Houser and his team did not know how to include a female character in the previous games. The location of the map is rumored to be in the southwest, which suggests that it would include Las Venturas.

According to website Neuro Gadget, a Reddit user named VermillionDemonFox suggested that a possible feature for the GTA 6 is a compilation of all previous maps in the enture franchise. However, it is still an unconfirmed rumor.

Christian Today reports that Gosling's rumored character will be based on the actor's 2011 performance of a criminal in the show called "Drive."

As for the game play, the outlet added that GTA 6 will be adding a "police" role where instead of only having the option to do looting, law-breaking and violence, players can take on a good role of enforcing the law in the open world atmosphere of the game. Interestingly, in the report by Day Herald, the developers could also be adding missions where there will be money rewards. The new game will also be bringing the six-star Wanted Level which was in GTA 4. The website stated that GTA 5 only have a five-star level.
