Take-Two Interactive Reiterates Fall 2025 Release Window for Grand Theft Auto 6
Despite industry speculation, Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar Games' parent company, maintains its projected fall 2025 release date for Grand Theft Auto 6 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. This confirmation comes following the release of their third-quarter financial report (ending December 31, 2024).
While acknowledging the inherent risk of delays, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick expressed confidence in the fall 2025 timeframe, emphasizing Rockstar's dedication to quality. He highlighted the game's high anticipation and the studio's commitment to excellence, stating that Rockstar "seeks perfection." Zelnick remained tight-lipped regarding specific development updates.
The GTA 6 release date continues to be a major topic in the gaming industry, influencing the strategies of competitors. EA CEO Andrew Wilson recently indicated a potential delay for the next Battlefield title, contingent on the release timing of competing games – a clear reference to GTA 6's anticipated impact.
