Grand Theft Auto 6 is, without a doubt, the most anticipated video game of 2025. A title that millions of players are watching for, with a precise release date which is slow to arrive. If we already knew that GTA VI was going to be released in fall 2025, Take-Two has made some reassuring news. The parent company of Rockstar (the studio behind the game) took advantage of the publication of its quarterly financial results to drive the point home.
GTA 6: Rockstar and Take-Two confirm the release
In recent days, video game news has been booming. The beginning of November is an opportunity for video game enthusiasts to perfect their knowledge of their favorite licenses. In fact, this is when companies publish their financial results. Enough to measure the success of games already released but also to learn more about forecasts for future financial results. This therefore often forces video game publishers to provide details to investors, very quickly reported to the media and the general public, concerning their upcoming productions. And after Nintendo or even Warner, it was Take-Two, Rockstar’s parent company, which carried out the exercise.
Who says Take-Two therefore says Rockstar and who says Rockstar necessarily says Grand Theft Auto, or GTA. During a meeting with its shareholders, the company made the update on sales of the series (more than 200 million copies sold for GTA V, almost half of all the games in the saga combined) before tackling the future.
A near future that we know consists of GTA 6, officially presented for the first time last December through a two-minute trailer. If we knew the title expected for 2025, Take-Two clarified things regarding the title’s release period. The presentation of financial statements is therefore the ideal opportunity to do so: GTA 6 is still expected for fall 2025.
No postponement for GTA 6
It is therefore between the month of September and December that the most anticipated game of the year should arrive. A title that cannot be disputed despite the releases of Monster Hunter Wilds; Ghost of Yotei, Doom: The Dark Ages or even Death Stranding 2. It must be said that Rockstar’s monster alone defines the 2025 gaming calendar in acting as a real scarecrow. For your competitors, you have to be smart but there is no doubt that the contribution of this first release window will help them. A first release window which, moreover, is not illogical since it is the season which precedes the end-of-year holidays. Enough to put the game under the tree.
With this latest financial report (looking back on the results of the second quarter of fiscal year 2025), Take-Two and Rockstar confirm that they will release GTA 6 next fall. Reassuring news after the last two months marked by rumors of postponement. This is according to a certain Liam, a member of a group called GTABase, who declared that the next numbered installment of the Grand Theft Auto series was going to be pushed back to 2026. A rumor commented on by Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier. He then said that the rumor, from what he had heard, was false. But that didn’t mean the game wouldn’t be postponed in the future. That, only Rockstar knows. And for the moment, in any case, it is not and is indeed expected for fall 2025.
