As per the screenshot above, Michael Unsworth spent over 16 years at Rockstar Games, holding positions like Senior Creative Writer, Writing Director, and Vice President of Writing before leaving the studio in 2023. Here are the projects he worked on during his tenure at Rockstar:

• Grand Theft Auto 4
• Grand Theft Auto 5
• Max Payne 3
• LA Noire
• Red Dead Redemption
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Grand Theft Auto 6

While all of these titles are great in their own way, GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 are highly regarded for their compelling narratives.

Many Grand Theft Auto fans previously expressed concerns about GTA 6 being woke following the revelation of its protagonist being a female. There had already been concerns about the sequel's theme and quality since the departure of several reputed Rockstar members like Dan Houser and Leslie Benzies.

However, Michael Unsworth adding Grand Theft Auto 6 to the list of games he has worked on, on his LinkedIn profile, has had a calming effect on anxious fans.

Interestingly, X user @jacob_litwinski talked about Rupert Humphries still working at Rockstar Games, who has also contributed to titles like GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2.

Although not much is known about the upcoming Grand Theft Auto sequel's plot as of this writing, the thought of reputed writers having worked on it should calm all fans. More details may be revealed in the near future via additional trailers.
