When Is "Grand Theft Auto VI" Releasing?
Fans have been waiting for Grand Theft Auto VI for over a decade. Its predecessor released back in September 2013. Unfortunately, they'll have to wait even longer than expected. Rockstar announced they are pushing the release date back to May 26, 2026, last weekend.
“With every game we have released, the goal has been to try and exceed your expectations and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception,” the company said in a statement. “We hope you understand we need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve.”
As noted by ABC News, shares of Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two Interactive, dropped by 7% in response. “While we take the movement of our titles seriously and appreciate the vast and deep global anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI, we remain steadfast in our commitment to excellence,” Chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick said in a statement. "As we continue to release our phenomenal pipeline, we expect to deliver a multi-year period of growth in our business and enhanced value for our shareholders.”
