Grand Theft Auto 6 is inarguably the most important upcoming recreation that all the trade is ready with bated breath for, and although Rockstar Video games introduced in December that the open world crime recreation would launch someday in 2025, that’s been referred to as into query in current days. Final week, a Kotaku report claimed that GTA 6’s manufacturing had fallen not on time and that it was, as such, in peril of probably getting pushed again into 2026.
Since then, nonetheless, there’s been some pushback in opposition to the notion. Shortly after the report was printed, Insider Gaming’s Mike Straw acknowledged that primarily based on what he had been instructed, GTA 6 was nonetheless very a lot on observe for a 2025 launch, whereas Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier has now mentioned comparable issues in a not too long ago printed publication.
As per Schreier, in a nutshell, although GTA 6 isn’t fully proof against the potential of a delay, that’s true for just about each single recreation in improvement throughout the trade. Although Rockstar’s current return-to-office mandate for all workers has actually prompted some problems throughout the studio (which might result in attrition and, in flip, potential manufacturing slowdowns for the sport), Schreier says that to this point, there was “no indication that something vital has modified” the place the sport’s launch plans are involved.
He goes on to jot down that Grand Theft Auto 6 is at present being labored on by “1000’s of individuals”, a lot of whom are “in their very own silos the place they’re writing code for climate physics or recording actor performances or looking for bugs on the streets of faux Miami.”
So whereas it may not be a protected wager to say there’s no probability Grand Theft Auto 6 will get delayed – particularly Rockstar’s historic tendency to delay its video games – it doesn’t seem like that’s the plan as issues stand proper now.
