As GTA 6 aims for a late 2025 release, Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser's new game gets some fresh details

Rockstar is slowly gearing up for Grand Theft Auto 6's release, and as it does so, some new details about co-founder Dan Houser's new game have been confirmed.



Back in 2020, Houser left Rockstar 22 years after founding the company, revealing his new studio Absurd Ventures in Games the following year. The company was described as providing "ready-made interactive leisure and entertainment software development," and since its announcement, not much has been confirmed in the way of what it's actually working on. Well, as spotted by GamesRadar, we do now have some details on the studio's first game, thanks to some recent job listings. The listing for a lead gameplay designer role noted that the role will see the selected candidate become "the primary vision holder and hands-on contributor for character, controls, and camera design in an open world action-adventure game."



It also makes mention of the role needing to deliver "best-in-class combat and third person action across multiple game modes" so it sounds like the game might not just be a single-player title. Following this, Absurd Adventures announced its first project, which isn't actually a game at all, but an audio fiction series called A Better Paradise, a sci-fi story "set in the near future" that "tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive digital game-world project led by inventor and psychologist, Dr. Mark Tyburn."
