New GTA 6 Delay Rumor Shot Down By Reporter, Says Statement Was Misconstrued
"During a recent appearance on the Button Mash podcast, Schreier said, "The last I heard, [GTA 6] was still not content complete. That is to say people were still finishing things up, still finalizing levels, and missions, and seeing what is going to make it into the game." He added that he doesn't "think anyone at Rockstar can tell you, with 100% certainty, that they will make it out in November.""
"This is a complete misunderstanding of what I said, which is that I wouldn't be shocked if GTA6 *does* come out this fall, following the same delay pattern as RDR2. Of course another delay is possible. It's a video game. But this blog post is very misleading (just reach out to me - it's not hard!)[image or embed] - Jason Schreier (@jasonschreier.bsky.social) January 8, 2026 at 6:28 AM"
GTA 6 remains not content complete, with teams still finishing and finalizing levels, missions, and decisions about what will appear in the final game. There is no 100% certainty that the game will meet the November 2026 release window, leaving the possibility of another delay. A clarification noted a fall release is possible but that another delay is not ruled out, reflecting the franchise's history of shifting launch dates. Rockstar has already postponed GTA 6 twice, with the current delay reportedly costing upwards of $60 million. Analysts suggest the standard edition could be priced at $100, potentially influencing industry pricing.
