As Grand Theft Auto VI is taking fans back to Vice City, gamers expect a lot of references and homage to the legendary GTA Vice City which was released in 2002. Fans like r/Competitive_Tear8407 on Reddit have made a lot of progress in mapping out the layout of GTA 6.

The GTA 6 mapping project is essentially the title's map being predicted by the fanbase in terms of how it will look, what assets it will incorporate, and more. A user by the tag of Competitive_Tear8407 on Reddit has started making his mapping progress for the game, by adding in assets and comparing it with the older games in the franchise, mostly Vice City. The user in question is a mapper as well, as stated in their post. 

 

The goal of the mapping project community is to map GTA 6's entire landmass before it is released in 2025. The mapping is mostly done through new information, the first official trailer for the game, and leaked game event lists. So far, the mapping project consists of pretty solid data; however, none of the information is official, as mentioned in the post as well.

 

How Does the GTA 6 Mapping Project Work?

User Competitive_Tear8407 on Reddit has listed the basics of how the GTA 6 Mapping Project is progressing. For starters, the mappers calculate the coordinates and RAGE Units of the map using the International System of Units (SI). A bit of complicated mathematics is involved in mapping measurements in the RAGE engine used by Rockstar Games. The mappers then proceed to map buildings by finding their real-life counterparts. This task uses Google Earth data, as it helps identify a building and gives mappers a general idea regarding its location in Miami/Florida. 

 

This is mostly an easier task, as Grand Theft Auto games usually use real-life places. Positioning of the building is also important to find the correct measurements. A lot of the buildings and assets were leaked earlier in 2022, which helped the mappers continue their progress. The next step in the GTA 6 mapping project is to map the landmass. A fan named DuPz0rs has already mapped an area by using legends. However, about 90% of the map's borders are still incomplete. As they are not known to the wide fanbase, mappers are still working on the project to know more about the landmass. 

 

The progress so far has been extraordinary for the mappers, as they have figured out how enormous the map will be. The east side of the map is nearly complete, with a small island present on the right of the full map. The GTA 6 mapping project community is still working on the map, waiting on more trailers from Rockstar Games and information on the title's setting.

Star Wars Outlaws Will Come Out Later This Month

 

Star Wars Outlaws is one of the most anticipated Ubisoft titles this year. The game was announced in January 2021. The game was later revealed in the Xbox Games Showcase in June 2023. Following the reveal, in April 2024, Ubisoft revealed two special editions for Star Wars Outlaws.

 

Star Wars Outlaws will be an open-world game action game, where players will assume the role of Kay Vess, a wanderer in the galaxy. She will also accompany her companion, Nix, as they partner up for heists across different locations.

 

The story of Star Wars Outlaws takes place between The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi from the Star Wars lore. The title is set to be exclusively single-player as of now, as Ubisoft has not announced any multiplayer elements for Outlaws. However, developers may add more features to the title shortly after release.

 

Gamers who preorder Star Wars Outlaws will receive a Kessel Runner bonus pack. Additionally, purchasing the Ultimate Edition will give gamers access to the Rogue Infiltrator and Sabacc Shark bundles, which will serve as cosmetics for one's ship. Aside from cosmetics, purchasing the Gold or Ultimate editions for Star Wars Outlaws will also give gamers access to the season pass, as well as game access three days before release.

 

Outlaws will possibly be the biggest open-world Star Wars game, which may borrow a lot of elements from Respawn's Star Wars Jedi series. Moreover, the title will allow gamers to traverse the open world with many vehicles from the famous universe. The title will rely heavily on stealth and Blaster combat, unlike the traditional Lightsaber battle from most Star Wars titles.
