GTA 6 release date cut to fall 2025 due to questions about delays

Take-Two Interactive doubles the release date for Grand Theft Auto VI, saying the long-awaited sequel will release in fall 2025 despite rumors of a possible delay until 2026. Take-Two has announced the updated release window updated GTA 6 in its latest earnings report, saying its current outlook is based on the new date.

“We are confident that we will deliver (Grand Theft Auto VI) in the fall of 2025,” Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two, told IGN in an interview when asked if he was concerned that GTA 6 be delayed.

Rockstar Games officially revealed Grand Theft Auto 6 last December, with the first official trailer becoming the most-watched video game reveal on YouTube in 24 hours. Set in modern-day Leonida, a fictionalized version of Florida, players will control Lucia and an unnamed man who some fans believe is named Jason.

Questions have been swirling around the GTA 6 release date since the initial reveal, with fans going crazy over details like website updates. Internal conflicts over Rockstar’s return-to-office policy have led to questions about whether GTA 6 will ultimately be delayed until 2026. However, at the moment, it appears that Take-Two Interactive and Rockstar are determined to release it before the planned release date. .

For now, we know that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. A PC version will not be available upon release; I hope PC gamers don’t have to wait Also long time to play it.
