release date window was even leaked. Even with all of this information, the GTA rival's plot and setting remain shrouded in mystery.

Everywhere is being led by former Rockstar North President Leslie Benzies, who left the company on bad in 2016. The executive was pivotal in creating GTA 3GTA 4, and GTA 5, making him one of the minds behind one of the most successful open-world franchises ever. Benzies will certainly be deg Everywhere using what he learned in his 15-year stint at Rockstar, but the ethos of Build A Rocket Boy Games' debut title is fundamentally different from that of the GTA series.

Everywhere has been in development since 2016, and it recently received $42 million in investments, meaning Build A Rocket Boy Games has enough resources to begin ramping up production. Despite it being announced five years ago and evidence that it's well on its way, the developer has only offered glimpses at what exactly Everywhere could be about.

Deus Ex and System Shock. Here's the game's briefing:

In the near future, technology has brought humanity to the precipice of a world shifting change. 

There are those who want to use this technology to advantage only themselves, and those who want to use it to help all humankind. Will we look to the stars? Or stare only at our feet? Will we be inspired? Or live in fear?

That might sound like a single-player adventure, akin to the Fallout series, where players need to decide what faction to align with so they can shape the game's world to their will. However, Build A Rocket Boy has explicitly stated that multiplayer will be a core part of Everywhere's narrative.

Its creators have revealed that Everywhere will offer a seamless cooperative multiplayer experience that gamers can choose to partake in or venture out independently. Benzies described his vision for the game's co-op feature to MMORPGs like World of Warcraft.

That being said, Everywhere has also been teased as a next-generation choose-your-own-adventure with countless narrative paths players can choose to live out. Players' choices have also been touted to greatly influence the game's world, which might mean s have to love in and constantly their alliance's cause and fight against enemy factions. Here's Build A Rocket Boy Games' hint at a kind of shared virtual world:

There’s a war between good and evil in the hearts of men and women. Everything is changing. And there’s no going back.

It’s a game. It’s a community. It’s a new world. The storm is on the horizon. And it is only the beginning of EVERYWHERE

That could play out as a tug of war, where factions with the most players behind them can exert more influence over Everywhere's shared world. Simultaneously, less powerful allegiances need to watch their back and fight to overthrow the ruling faction from the shadows.

Everything Build A Rocket Boy Games has revealed about Everywhere make it seem like it will take place on earth, but space travel seems destined to be a core part of the title. The only promotional image of the title that its developer has released is a mysterious render of a person's eye, suggesting that gamers will play as humans and not some alien race. Little is known about Everywhere, and Build A Rocket Boy Games could easily include an alien race or even sentient robots in the final version of its game.

As it stands, open-world game fans only have Everywhere's vague teasers, comments from the developers, and a healthy dose of speculation to go off of. While barely any details about the title can be confirmed yet, GTA 6's biggest rival will begin to come into focus as Build A Rocket Boy Games continues to work through its development.
