Grand Theft Auto VI release stays on track for Fall 2025

Despite widespread speculation about a potential delay, Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has reaffirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI is still on schedule for a Fall 2025 release. This news comes as a relief to fans who have been eagerly awaiting the next installment in the iconic open-world crime saga for over a decade.

Take-Two's latest earnings report confirmed the Fall 2025 launch window, squashing rumors of a further delay into 2026. This announcement follows a previous confirmation in May that the game wouldn't arrive until the second half of 2025, causing some initial concern among fans.

The highly anticipated game received its first teaser trailer last December, showcasing scenes from the Miami-inspired Vice City and its surrounding areas. The trailer also confirmed the game's dual protagonists, including a playable female character named Lucia. Since then, fans have been meticulously analyzing every detail of the trailer for hints about the game's plot and features.

Despite ongoing negotiations between Take-Two and the striking SAG-AFTRA performers, a spokesperson for the union confirmed that GTA VI is exempt from the work stoppage, further solidifying its projected release timeline.

With the release date seemingly locked in, anticipation for GTA VI continues to build. Fans are eagerly awaiting further updates and glimpses into the game's world as the Fall 2025 launch window draws closer.
