That's why so many are curious about the GTA 6 age rating.

For more GTA 6, we can tell you where the game takes place, and provide a comprehensive breakdown of everything we learned from the first trailer.
What is the GTA 6 Age Rating?
GTA 6 will most likely be rated R+ or M-rated due to the nature of the game's content.

What we do know for sure is that the GTA 6 trailer contained a "may contain content inappropriate for children" warning from ESRB, but no specific age rating was provided.
There was some controversy around GTA 6's age rating because leaks that surfaced online showed the game rated as MA15 on the Australian government's website rather than the standard 18+ we've come to expect from this.
However, many speculate that Rockstar could have done this since they want their game to be available to a larger audience.
Rockstar has tried to reduce the age rating for their games to make them available to a larger audience. However, governments worldwide have always overturned their appeal and rated the game as Mature(17+ in the US and 18+ worldwide).
