Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has dispelled delay rumors and provided a much-needed reassurance to gamers. The company has confirmed a specific release window for GTA 6 during its fourth quarterly earnings report.
Despite speculation suggesting a potential delay to 2026, Take-Two has assured both investors and gamers that GTA 6 is slated for release in Fall 2025.
During the Q4 earnings call, as stated in an official press release, Strauss Zelnick, Chairman and CEO of Take-Two stated, “Our outlook reflects a narrowing of Rockstar Games’ previously established window of Calendar 2025 to Fall of Calendar 2025 for Grand Theft Auto VI.”
Prior to the earnings call, the release date for the next Grand Theft Auto game was only confirmed for 2025 without a specific date. Now, Take-Two has provided the updated release window and revised projections for the financial impact of GTA 6’s release.
Zelnick also stated, “We are highly confident that Rockstar Games will deliver an unparalleled entertainment experience, and our expectations for the commercial impact of the title continue to increase.“
If you’ve been following the gaming news for the past six months, you’re likely aware of Rockstar’s grand announcement of GTA 6 in December last year. Due to a leaked trailer, the studio was forced to release the official trailer earlier than planned. Despite this, GTA 6’s trailer became the most-viewed on YouTube in 24 hours, breaking records.
The GTA 6 trailer introduces fans to the main protagonist, Lucia, and her love interest, Jason (name unconfirmed for now), in what seems to be a Bonnie and Clyde-style story. The game’s setting is Leonida, inspired by modern-day Florida. To get an idea of the playable area’s size, you can check out the GTA 6 map leaks.
While it’s great news that we have an exact release window for GTA 6, fans are eagerly awaiting Trailer 2. We hope Rockstar will satisfy our craving for more updates about Grand Theft Auto 6 by giving us a glimpse of the game mechanics, our protagonists in action, and much more.
GTA 6 is confirmed to launch on Xbox Series X/S and PS5 in Fall 2025. Stay tuned for further updates.
