Good news for Grand Theft Auto fans: GTA 6 is still on track for its Fall 2025 release window. Despite months of rumors and concerns about a potential delay to 2026, Rockstar Games’ parent company, Take-Two Interactive, has reaffirmed the game’s planned launch during its latest earnings report.
What’s the Latest Update?
In its quarterly earnings report, Take-Two Interactive confirmed that GTA VI is still scheduled to release in Fall 2025, aligning with the initial announcement. This means players can expect the game to hit shelves between September and November 2025, barring any last-minute changes.
However, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick acknowledged that delays are always a possibility. Speaking to IGN, Zelnick said, “There’s always a risk of slippage,” but added that the company feels “really good” about the 2025 release window.
Zelnick emphasized Rockstar’s commitment to perfection, stating, “Rockstar seeks perfection. I never claim success before it occurs. Arrogance is the enemy of continued success.”
Why Fans Are Still Frustrated
While the confirmation of the 2025 release window is reassuring, fans are growing impatient for more details. The only official update since the game’s first trailer in December 2023 has been Zelnick’s repeated assurances that the game is on track.
This lack of new information has left the community eager for a second trailer or gameplay reveal. As one fan put it, “We’ve been waiting for over a year with no real updates. It’s starting to feel like forever.”
What’s Next for GTA 6?
With the 2025 release window confirmed, fans are hopeful that Rockstar will soon share more about the game. A second trailer or gameplay footage could help build excitement and ease concerns about potential delays.
For now, the gaming world remains on edge, eagerly awaiting any news about GTA VI. As Zelnick noted, the game is “eagerly anticipated both internally and externally,” and its release is expected to be one of the biggest events in gaming history.
The Bigger Picture
The confirmation of GTA VI’s 2025 release window is a relief for fans, but it also highlights the immense pressure on Rockstar to deliver a game that lives up to the hype. With the Grand Theft Auto series being one of the most successful franchises in gaming, expectations are sky-high.
