GTA 6 Delayed to May 2026: Fans Demand a Screenshot Now

May 02, 2025 12:30 PM

Rockstar Games has announced a delay for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, pushing its release date to May 2026. The news comes without any new visuals or further details, prompting a wave of mixed reactions from fans. While some express disappointment over the lack of updates, others remain hopeful that the delay will ensure a polished final product. Speculation is rife in the community about possible simultaneous launches for PC and next-gen consoles, as well as concerns over the game's potential pricing, which may reach up to $100. Rockstar's statement assures fans that more information will come soon, possibly hinting at upcoming trailers or gameplay reveals.

Will GTA 6 release on PC at the same time as consoles now that it's delayed?

It's uncertain, but many fans hope Rockstar will include a PC release alongside the consoles given the extended timeline until May 2026. Speculations vary, with some predicting the PC version may release later than the console version to ensure optimized performance.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is expected to be one of the largest gaming launches in history, following the immensely successful Grand Theft Auto V. Since its release in 2013, GTA V has shattered sales records, and expectations for the sixth installment are astronomically high. Given Rockstar's history of prioritizing quality over speed, many are hopeful that the extended development time will yield a groundbreaking game that lives up to its legendary predecessor.
