"As part of Take-Two's earnings announcement today, the company confirmed that Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto VI remains on track for release on November 19, 2026. There was no reason to believe it might be delayed again, but the company said today that it remains on track. GTA 6 was originally set to release in Fall 2025 before it shifted to May 26, 2026 and then again to November 19, 2026. Rockstar said it needed more time to make the game the best it could be."
"Take-Two boss Strauss Zelnick told IGN that marketing for GTA 6 will begin in earnest this summer. "Any time you're getting closer to marketing beats, you're obviously in a place where your confidence level is as high as it can be," he said of GTA 6 making it out on time this November. Pretty much every high-profile game that Rockstar has made has been delayed multiple times, so it was no surprise to see GTA 6 get delayed."
"GTA 6 is coming to market with a mountain of hype behind it and projections that it could sell 40 million copies and generate $3 billion in revenue during its first year alone. Hopes are high for the game, but experts have warned that GTA 6 being a success will not solve the industry's many serious issues. Also in the earnings report, Take-Two announced that GTA 5 had sold another 5 million copies, climbing to 225 million sold to date."
Take-Two confirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI remains on track for release on November 19, 2026 and indicated no reason to expect another delay. The game was previously scheduled for Fall 2025, then May 26, 2026, before moving to the current November date because Rockstar required more time to refine the game. Marketing for the title will begin in earnest this summer, and nearing marketing steps reflects high confidence in meeting the launch. Projections estimate GTA VI could sell about 40 million copies and generate roughly $3 billion in its first year. Take-Two also reported continued strong sales for GTA V and Red Dead Redemption II.
