Reports by Bloomberg, Rockstar Games, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., aims to have the staff back in the office in April for the final steps of making GTA VI, which is the most anticipated game of 2024 and the next installment of the GTA series. This email, sent by Rockstar Games’ President of Publishing, Jenn Kolbe, is an attempt to address unnecessary time loss and threats to the item’s security caused by the recent leak of private information, through a recall of the save game files.
The company strongly believes that experienced personnel are capable of meeting the high-end requirements of this project, ensuring the most sophisticated and thorough result. A topic that is much debated is the inclination of companies to return to office environments during the pandemic, particularly if they have adopted hybrid models.
On the other hand, a recent study suggests that the shift to remote work did not show any significant difference in productivity. The exact extent of workforce decentralization and on-demand capability remains debatable in the gaming industry due to master-mix accuracy issues and uncertainty in forecasting.
Of significance, however, is the creation of Marvel fan-favorite Spider-Man 2 from behind the scenes in the same year.
GTA 6 is about to enter the final stretch of development as Rockstar has asked all employees to return to the office 5 days a week from April.
