Not only is GTA 6 the most anticipated blockbuster at the moment, it is also considered the most expensive game in history when according to many sources, especially from the hacker of the famous trailer leak, this project cost more than 2 billion dollars to produce.
If this is true, there is certainly nothing to argue about GTA 6 anymore when the closest to this budget mark, Cyberpunk 2077, only cost $441.9 million to develop. Therefore, it is not surprising that from this point on, many fans are eagerly waiting to see how this blockbuster will perform in 2025 – the time Rockstar set to release GTA 6.
However, it is not certain that gamers will experience GTA 6 next year.
The latest information from Liam – a GTA 6 leaker has just shared this. On his personal page, this leaker confirmed that Rockstar has made an internal decision to delay the release date of GTA 6. It is no longer the fall of 2025 as before, instead, this masterpiece will only reach fans in mid-2026. According to this source, the PC version of the game will be available about 12-18 months after the launch date. Remember that Liam is a fairly reliable source when the first trailer of GTA 6 was revealed by him to many parties.
The delay in the release of GTA 6 will likely disappoint fans who have been waiting for the sequel for more than a decade after Grand Theft Auto 5 launched in 2013. GTA 6 is arguably the most anticipated video game in history, as evidenced by the massive amount of views its trailer has garnered on YouTube since Rockstar dropped the trailer on December 5 last year, a day after it was leaked.
This is obviously bad news for gamers, but on the bright side, it also means that Rockstar will have more time to complete this blockbuster, worthy of the title of the most expensive game. However, when information about the development of GTA 6 facing many uncertainties and possibly having to postpone the release date to 2026 is widely spread, Rockstar Games' parent company T2 Interactive is still heavily affected by the rumor and the company's stock price has dropped by 5.2%.
