GTA 6 Release Date Update: Fans Highlight New Date Amid Concerns Over Delays

Fans of Grand Theft Auto now have a significant date marked on their calendars that could indicate a potential announcement regarding the delay of GTA 6, and it is approaching swiftly.

Over a year has passed since Rockstar Games unveiled the first glimpse of GTA 6, and the community continues to await further developments. Hopes were high that fans might receive new screenshots towards the end of 2024, but the anticipated announcement on December 27 turned out to be fruitless. The ongoing silence from Rockstar has only intensified concerns among fans, prompting fears that the release of this highly anticipated title could be pushed back until 2026.

Insights from a former developer suggest that Rockstar might not have accurate information regarding potential delays until May 2025. However, there’s increased speculation as Rockstar employees persistently mention 2025 as a key timeframe, leading fans to another vital date to monitor.

Take-Two’s Earnings Call on February 6: A Possible Turning Point

Take-Two Interactive, the publisher behind Rockstar, has scheduled an investor call for February 6 at 4:30 PM Eastern Time (9:30 PM in the UK, 10:30 PM in Central Europe, and 1:30 PM in Los Angeles). During these calls, Take-Two has historically provided updates on GTA 6’s development, although CEO Strauss Zelnick often emphasizes that information will ultimately come from Rockstar itself.

One optimistic fan voiced, “The only news this will give us is if they still believe they’re on track to release in fall. Other than that, don’t expect anything else.” Another added, “I have faith that it won’t be delayed. Hopefully, they start the marketing soon, probably after this meeting.”

Yet, not all sentiments are positive; a more apprehensive fan remarked, “Get ready for tears.” This anxiety over a potential delay to 2026 stems from Rockstar’s prolonged silence and critical reports from journalist Jason Schreier, who has been closely monitoring the development of GTA 6.

As the January 2024 earnings call approaches, the gaming community is eager to discover whether the long-awaited title will meet its expected timeline or face further setbacks.
