Grand Theft Auto 6's release date was shifted from Fall 2025 to May 26, 2026, as many developers at Rockstar Games considered the original timeline unrealistic. Despite earlier assertions from Take-Two Interactive about sticking to the initial schedule, internal sources indicated a consensus that there wasn't sufficient time for adequate development. Gaming journalist Jason Schreier noted that Rockstar aims to avoid severe crunch, which has plagued many development teams, further complicating the launch timeline. As delays are not uncommon in Rockstar's history, fans may prepare for the possibility of additional shifts in the release date.
Nobody I've talked to at Rockstar has believed Fall 2025 was a real window for a very long time now, too much work, not enough time.
GTA VI slipping to 2026 has seemed inevitable for months if not longer, indicating a substantial need for additional development time.
