Overview

  • A new Rockstar Games careers posting seeks a Mobile Engineer with iOS and Android expertise to build and maintain the studio’s mobile platform, SDK and build systems.
  • Fans on Reddit and X linked the listing to Grand Theft Auto VI, theorizing a mobile companion app after dissecting its timing and requirements.
  • Rockstar previously released companion apps for GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 that provided maps, vehicle customization and journal access but drew criticism for shallow integration.
  • GTA 6 is set in a fictional Florida state called Leonida and features heavy social media parody, making a dedicated mobile extension a natural fit for out-of-console interaction.
  • Despite mounting speculation, Rockstar has not officially confirmed any GTA 6 companion app and the game remains scheduled for release on May 26, 2026.
