      The time between games is not the development time.

      GTA III was only in development for one year. It wasn’t in development for 2 years. Same with GTA IV. Rockstar do other things between releasing GTA games. In between developing GTA V and GTA VI Rockstar made two Red Dead Redemption games plus DLC for GTA V, you don’t think they were working on GTA VI at the same time do you?

      Also they did an engine update in there as well so they couldn’t have been working on GTA VI until that was done. The absolute earliest date for the beginning development of VI is 5 - 6 years ago, and that’s not to say that was the start date.
