While it seems very unlikely that Rockstar will ever follow up on or return to its 2006 classic Bully, fans are taking things into their own hands by giving the original online play. Let's face it, Bully 2 probably isn't going to happen. At least not any time in the near future, given how Rockstar Games is currently developing games at a cadence of one or two per decade (although the 2020s may only have one if the studio's next game takes as long as GTA 6 has). Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser previously said Bully 2 never happened because "you just can't do all the projects you want" and given that his "own childhood" shaped "a lot" of Rockstar's cult classic a sequel's chances feel even less likely since he left the studio. Former GTA boss and Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser's "own childhood" shaped "a lot" of Rockstar's cult classic open-world game Bully, former dev says, but it also "touched on all our childhood memories" Former GTA boss and Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser says Bully 2 never happened because "you just can't do all the projects you want" "A couple of people had mental breakdowns": Forget GTA 6, Bully's "brutal" 120-hour development weeks might be Rockstar's worst-ever crunch - "the office started to feel like a prison" This Online mode is similar to those found in GTA, with "minigames, free-roaming, and roleplay," which includes a fleshed-out inventory system, with players able to earn money in-game to buy things like cars, items, and houses. There's even an FPS mode where you play as rats with guns, "obviously we didn't want to add guns to the free-roaming experience" (with making the combat appropriate for young characters being a big concern for Rockstar too), so the way to get around all of that is "put the guns in the hands of cartoony, oversized rats). The mod should be made available "in due time." However, players who support the project on its Ko-fi page will be given perks like early access to the mod in December 2025, behind-the-scenes content like developer commentary, and an in-game camera. Rockstar "laughed at all the controversy" surrounding Bully's name before the cult classic open-world game launched: "They were freaking out over something they didn't really know anything about"
