GTA 5’s Dr. Friedlander returning in GTA 6?

Players who have played the final set of missions for Dax and The Troupe in the Los Santos Drug Wars, will spot Dr. Friedlander from the main story. He’s Michael’s therapist, who players get the option to kill in the game.

Even if players kill the character, he somehow survived to make it into the new update. Some players believe it could have links to GTA 6 given the much-talked-about codename of ‘Project Americas’ and supposed links to the drug trade that is said to be a major part of the story.

“Since he survived, it’s a very real possibility we see him return in GTA 6,” Gaming Detective said. Some fans were quick to voiuce their dissapointment, given the aren’t a fan of the chracter.

“I’m not fond of Dr. Friedlander turning from “crap therapist” into some kind of “drug lord,” one user said. “God he is so boring, I hope Rockstar moves on from him,” wrote another. 

GTA 6 towns and cities leaked

In a Reddit thread, user ‘tusstaster’ made a list of every city and town in GTA 6, along with locations inside of them. In the files, the user found a total of 12 cities and towns, with the main one being Vice City, but there are several others worth noting.

The full list packs Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, Redhill, LO, Sundown, Copperhead, Yorktown, Lake Leonida, Ekanfinika, Hamlet, and Domed Hills. Moreover, there will be some special locations inclduing a couple of strip malls, a beach plaza, a forest, and even drag strips. It’s likely that more will be added as the development moves ahead or as DLC, as rumored by insiders.

GTA 6 event leaks

In other Reddit threads, the user showcased more than 1,000 events in GTA 6, which should fuel the speculations. Several drug labs, including RVs, could be possible Breaking Bad references, suggesting that drugs could play a major role in the game.

Other big ones included Malibu Club, a sobriety test, gang encounters, romance options, heists, a Bonnie & Clyde mystery, and UFOs. For fans who are already hyped up about the upcoming game, this leak should take their excitement level to new heights. Not everything will likely make it to the final product, but it would be worth watching what Rockstar has in store.
