GTA 2 inspired, free-to-play battle royale changes its name for a second time

Who here remembers Geneshift? Those with a love of classic, top-down Grand Theft Auto likely do. Released all the way back in 2017, the multiplayer battle royale game changed its name a few years ago to Gene Shift Auto, so that it could wear its inspiration on its sleeve. However, it’s now decided to change guises yet again – and it’s ditching any kind of GTA reference or homage. Gene Shift Auto is now Skillshot City.
