Six writes the house voice: the headline is answered in the first sentence, every piece leads with dates and numbers, and each claim is labelled Confirmed or Our guess. Launch logistics, countdowns and the big explainers are Six's.
Like everyone on the site, Six keeps what Rockstar has said or shown apart from opinion, names the source for every date and number, and never uses a leak or rumour as the only source. See how we label facts.
