Motley Fool further points out that Rockstar and Take Two Interactive will logically follow the "Grand Theft Auto" model for "Red Dead Redemption 2."

The media outlet proposes that "Grand Theft Auto 6," which may release in 2018, could follow this GTA trend. To be sure, Rockstar and Take Two Interactive will take care to maintain the quality and lead of the "GTA" franchise in "Grand Theft Auto 6."
