0Keeping an eye on job openings across Rockstar Games different departments can often be quite insightful when it comes to GTA 6. For instance, the hiring of Localization QA Testers confirmed the list of supported languages. Meanwhile, a Mobile Engineer position indirectly suggested that a companion app for iOS and Android devices is in the works. And just recently, an interesting phrasing was spotted there:
In a job description for a Lead Software Engineer in Data Engineering, Rockstar, in an unusually candid manner, not only referenced their upcoming blockbuster but even went as far as to call it the largest game launch in history. Arguing with that hardly makes sense — everyone in the industry understands that it’s true. Still, the very fact that R* phrased it this way surprised those familiar with the company’s typically reserved communication style. However, the paragraph was later removed, and the page now looks much more standard.
With the continued growth of Grand Theft Auto Online and the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto VI, the successful candidate will lead both the evolution and operation of the data platform supporting what will be the largest game launch in history, ensuring it scales to deliver an exceptional experience for millions of players worldwide.
