In recent days, GTA 6 fans have been living in uncertain worries.
It all started after a leak suggested that the game had been delayed internally. Instead of releasing in the fall of 2025 as originally planned, GTA 6 would most likely be pushed back to early or mid-2026. The news then spread and caused a lot of frustration among GTA 6 fans, despite the fact that it was never confirmed. And now, publisher Take-Two has made the first move after these rumors.
Specifically, based on Take-Two's annual report, the publisher announced that Rockstar Games is continuing to invest in this brand and still plans to release GTA 6 in the fall of 2025, thereby putting to rest all rumors of previous delays.
However, this is still not a very positive signal for GTA 6 gamers to celebrate right now. The reason is also very simple, when many people are relying on Rockstar's inherent bad habits for many years with the famous GTA series.
Accordingly, almost every game that Rockstar has released, since GTA 3, has been delayed, delayed from a week to sometimes a year. This has happened so regularly that gamers have become all too familiar with it. Both Red Dead Redemption games were delayed twice before officially launching, and even the next-gen release of GTA 5 was delayed by 4 months. However, at least most of the blockbusters that Rockstar has released are of extremely high quality and worthy of being masterpieces.
The delay of GTA 6 itself is still considered a very real possibility. Besides the long-standing “tradition” of this developer, the fact that GTA 6 has a production cost of up to billions of dollars as rumored and is the key to the success of the developer in the following years, Take-Two will probably be very careful with the quality of this blockbuster. And having more time to focus on research and development is also necessary.
