'GTA 6' 2025 release date window confirmed by Rockstar Games
Do you think you can wait a year and a half to play GTA 6? Sorry, but it seems like you don't have a choice.
In an interview with IGN, Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick said pretty explicitly that we should expect the next entry in the GTA series to launch late next year. Previously, the game was announced with a vague release window of just "2025," so Zelnick's comments should help narrow things down for those who simply need GTA VI in their lives.
"We do feel highly confident that we'll deliver [Grand Theft Auto VI] in fall of 2025," Zelnick said, per IGN.
This news will surely disappoint those who were holding out hope that it might come out earlier in 2025, but what's another few months when you've been waiting for the next GTA since 2013?
GTA VI has, obviously, been a magnet for rumor-mongering and discussion online for more than a decade at this point. After years of speculation (and leaks), Rockstar confirmed the game in December with a Tom Petty-set trailer. It's a modern take on previous series setting Vice City, which is a not-especially-subtle pastiche of Miami.
At this point, you probably already know if you're excited for GTA VI or not. Now, the waiting game begins. Or continues, I guess.
