"GTA 6" buzz focuses on a Seattle map where the "Grand Theft Auto" game by Rockstar could potentially clash with smuggling problems. "GTA 6" seems to be staying on US soil with a promised map double the size of Rockstar's Los Santos and Blaine County.

GTA 5 Cheats assessed Seattle as a "Grand Theft Auto" map candidate and points to the potentials of Emerald City for purposes of the Rockstar franchise. Off the bat, Seattle does not have the "GTA 6" violence and crime rate requirements, which the "Grand Theft Auto" brand is known for.
