'GTA 6' Rival Could Be A VR Experience With Endless Virtual Gameplay
KEY POINTS
- "Everywhere" is speculated to be a VR game featuring unlimited content
- The game is expected to rival "GTA 6" in terms of sheer game size
- It is currently being developed by former Rockstar Games employees
“Grand Theft Auto 6” rumors, leaks and speculations have suggested that it’s set to be Rockstar’s biggest and most ambitious game to date. However, an indie developer by the name of Build A Rocket Boy Games, helmed by ex-Rockstar employees, has dared to challenge Rockstar’s vision by creating an even bigger title that features nigh-limitless content with possible full VR support.
The title in question is called “Everywhere.” The game is set in a world where technology has caused drastic changes to the world humans live in.
Apart from this short synopsis, the developers have not yet provided any other information regarding gameplay, setting or other plot points. However, they have emphasized that the game will put its entire player community at the core of its development.
The statement implies that creation tools will be readily available for players so they can create their own content for the game. This feature is akin to how “VRChat” allows players to create their own player avatars, worlds and even game modes.
Curious Redditor NestorSite created a post detailing a number of patents that Build A Rocket Boy has filed to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in 2020.
These include one patent for a system related to how the game world is generated and how players are expected to interact with objects in the game, a patent for a multiplayer rhythm game and another one for VR-Chitech, a different company belonging to Build A Rocket Boy’s owner Leslie Benzies.
One patent called "System and Method For Providing A Computer-Generated Environment" was published on Feb. 2, 2020, while "Multi-Player Game" was published on Dec. 24, 2020.
The patent for game world generation suggests “Everywhere” could be a VR game or at least support virtual reality machines like the HTC Vive and Valve Index. The patents also suggest that the game will feature an “overworld” that will function as a social hub as well as many smaller worlds that act as various game modes.
If any of these speculations prove to be true, then “Everywhere” players can expect a massive and extremely immersive game where just about anything is possible.
