Take-Two Patent Hints At Exciting Animation Tech Headed To Grand Theft Auto 6
We've recently witnessed the beauty of what next generation gaming can look like with the stellar Alan Wake 2 giving us an impressive graphical journey. GTA 6 has also had its fair share of related rumors with its potential next generation graphics capabilities. This time, there appears to be a potential hint that deals with the animation of characters stemming from a Take-Two patent.

It only makes sense that the characters will also have dynamic and highly fluid movements in GTA 6, as the patent indicates. According to Reddit user Tobbelobben who initially found this information, a "Library of small building blocks" is being utilized. This would allow the characters in this game to match the dynamic and fluid nature of the rest of the environment. Small details such as these matter tremendously for giving gamers the feeling of immersion and realism that modern games are striving to achieve.

GTA 6 is also the next installment of the insanely popular GTA 5, which has had tremendous staying power on the gaming charts. This long-term oriented franchise therefore will benefit from the best technology possible, as it ages gracefully. The precedent is there for games that push the envelope technologically with the previous titles in this franchise. While insane movement and graphics won't necessarily dictate if the gameplay and overall package are a sure-fire winner, it certainly is an important part of the winning package. Now whether the patented tech comes to fruition in the next GTA title, we'll just have to wait and see.
