Unfortunate news has surfaced for GTA 6 enthusiasts, indicating a potential postponement of the game’s release. Reports from Tech4Gamers suggest that the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) may not hit the shelves in 2025 as initially anticipated. Instead, fans might have to wait until early or mid-2026 to get their hands on this highly-anticipated title.
Moreover, there are indications that the PC version of GTA 6 might be released 12 to 18 months after the console version. This information, reportedly from two different sources, emphasizes the credibility of these claims.
Despite repeated assurances from Take-Two, Rockstar Games’ parent company, regarding the 2025 release, concerns about game optimization have cast doubt on this timeline. Following the controversial launch of Cyberpunk 2077, Rockstar appears to be taking a more cautious approach, aiming to deliver a flawless GTA 6 before it reaches the market.
Furthermore, the potential delay could also be associated with the impending release of new consoles such as the next-gen Xbox and PS5 Pro, expected to launch around 2026.
While Rockstar has not made an official announcement, enthusiasts can remain hopeful for the possible unveiling of a new GTA 6 trailer later in the year.
