GTA 6 Rumors: Fact or Fiction?
*Rumors by Lindsey Lohan playing in the background as you read this post*
Release date GTA VI has been teased by Rockstar and delayed twice thrice already. Possibly pushed internally to Fall 2025 then publicly to May 2026, and finally to Fall 2026. There is some speculation that the original launch date was Spring 2025 via David Senra’s podcast episode with Take-Two Interactive’s CEO, Strauss Zelnick. Zelnick mentioned that “November 19th” is the release date and is “18 months behind the original date”. The fall and holiday 2026 release seasons should be interesting. GTA 6 and we’re probably getting Fable 4 around that time. I’m excited about both. Tired, but excited.
Pre-orders Best Buy affiliate emails stoked the flames of pre-orders happening on May 18th. Unfortunately, Monday, May 18th came and went without any mention of the pre-orders. Some reddit threads have pointed out different things that Rockstar has been quietly updating, such as it’s pinned video on the Rockstar YouTube channel and many assets throughout their websites.
Rockstar, you tricksy bish. Did you get Best Buy to stir the proverbial pot to poke gamers, and the rumor mill? You already have our attention, but I’m getting tired of leaks, fake leaks, and rumors.
To pre-order or not to pre-order, that is...wait, when's the pre-order?
Just take my money already for the Xbox version, and let me play GTA on PC once it’s available. I’ll just go back to my GTA 5 life and keep doing Cayo Perico 20 times and a Cluckin’ Bell raid every so often. Some FIB files peppered in and maybe, just maybe another Dr. Dre run. Maybe.
I believe the Take-Two earnings call is on May 21st so we’ll see what happens before, during, and afterwards. A new trailer or a release date mayhaps?
