Despite Take-Two Interactive confirming that Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) is still on track for a Fall 2025 release, fans remain anxious about a potential delay. With no second trailer or concrete release date announced, the community is on edge as they wait for more updates. Here’s what’s going on.
What Did Take-Two Say?
During its latest earnings call, Take-Two Interactive reassured investors and fans that GTA VI is still scheduled for release in Fall 2025, likely between September and November. This confirmation should have eased concerns about a delay, but for many fans, the fear persists.
Why Are Fans Still Worried?
The anxiety stems from Rockstar Games’ history of delaying major titles. For example, Red Dead Redemption 2 was initially confirmed to be on track during a February earnings call, only to be delayed in May of the same year. Fans worry that GTA VI could follow a similar pattern.
- Reddit User HomeMadeShock: “Didn’t they delay RDR2 at the May call, and said it was still on track in the Feb call? It could still be delayed, we won’t know for certain until May.”
- Ordinary_Duder: “The biggest ‘barrier’ is the May call lol. RDR2 was on track in Feb 2017 and was delayed in May.”
While these concerns are valid, it’s worth noting that GTA VI and Red Dead Redemption 2 are different games with unique development cycles. There’s no guarantee that GTA VI will face the same delays.
What’s Next for GTA 6?
Fans are now looking ahead to Take-Two’s next earnings call in May, which could bring more clarity about the game’s release. Many are hoping for a second trailer or details about GTA VI’s features, which have yet to be officially discussed.
In the meantime, the community continues to speculate and dissect every piece of information, keeping the hype alive for what could be one of the biggest gaming releases of all time.
