The Internet Reacts To GTA 6's Big Delay
Briefly

Grand Theft Auto VI's anticipated release has been postponed from fall 2025 to May 2026, surprising fans yet again. This delay opens up the second half of 2025 for other major titles like Metal Gear Solid Delta and Borderlands 4, reshaping the Game of the Year race. The article reflects on how long it's been since GTA V's release in 2013, citing significant cultural changes. Additionally, it highlights how Nintendo and other developers may benefit from the absence of GTA VI in the holiday market.
Whelp, Grand Theft Auto VI isn't coming out in 2025 after all. Many are shocked but not surprised. Big games often get delayed.
With GTA VI now slated for May 2026, the second half of 2025 is wide open for other blockbuster releases like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
A surprise reveal of a new 3D Mario along with Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Metroid Prime 4 could help it dominate the holiday season.
The Game of the Year race just got wide open again as well, though I'm skeptical that GTA VI was ever a lock.
