Why is GTA 6 so "dragging"?

The next, sixth version of the game Grand Theft Auto has been talked about for quite some time, but there is no concrete date for the sixth. The latest guesses are about year 2022. Why is Rockstar delaying a game that is selling so well? The answer might be rather odd - he's procrastinating precisely because it sells so well.

It seems a bit illogical, but it's not. GTA 5 is indeed seven years old, but in 2020 more than 1.1 million copies of the game were sold in Great Britain alone. In practice, this means that the "old man" on the Island fared better than innovations such as Animal Crossing: New Horizons (810,500 copies), Assassin's Creed Valhalla (665,800 copies) and The Last of Us Part II (539,200 copies), only FIFA 21 (2.18 million copies) and Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (1.42 million copies).

And since the saying goes that a winning horse doesn't change, Rockstar will prefer to release an "expanded and improved" version of GTA 5 first in mid-2021, pushing GTA 6 to 2022.
