GTA 6 Release Date Update Incoming: August 7 Earnings Call Could Confirm Delay

With less than 10 months until Grand Theft Auto VI’s scheduled May 26, 2026 launch, all eyes turn to Take-Two Interactive’s August 7 earnings call – where Rockstar’s parent company may address growing fears of another delay. Industry analysts and insiders warn this critical update could push gaming’s most anticipated title to September, extending a 13-year wait for fans.

Why August 7 Matters

Take-Two’s quarterly earnings calls have historically delivered major GTA updates:

  • Previous calls confirmed the May 2026 release date after its initial delay from Fall 2025
  • CEO Strauss Zelnick uses these events to manage investor expectations
  • No official GTA 6 news has surfaced since December 2023’s trailer

The August 7 briefing marks Rockstar’s last major pre-launch window to adjust timelines without significant financial repercussions.

The September Delay Rumors

Credible leaker Millie A (with prior accurate reveals) warns:

“Internal talks suggest a possible slip to September 2026.”
This aligns with:

  • Rockstar’s pattern (RDR2 was delayed twice)
  • Development scale: GTA 6’s living Vice City and dual protagonists demand polish
  • Strategic positioning: September avoids summer blockbusters and precedes holiday sales

Fan Anxiety Peaks

Community reactions reflect fractured optimism:

  • “If they delay again, I’m done. 13 years is torture.” (Reddit)
  • *“September actually makes sense – avoids *Elder Scrolls 6* hype.”* (Twitter)
  • “Just confirm May isn’t dead, please!” (GTA Forums)
