May 17, 2024 8:59 AM

Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) is officially slated for a Fall 2025 release, as confirmed by Take-Two Interactive during their latest earnings report. The narrowing of the release window from the entire year to a specific season indicates a more solid timeline for the highly anticipated title from Rockstar Games. Furthermore, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick expressed strong confidence in the upcoming game's potential to deliver an exceptional entertainment experience.

Adding to the success narrative of the Grand Theft Auto series, GTA 5 remarkably surpassed the milestone of 200 million copies sold, maintaining its strong sales years after initial release, partly due to the enduring popularity of GTA Online and the game's story mode. Speculation has also arisen about a potential Red Dead Redemption release on PC following recent datamining activities.

When is GTA 6 expected to be released?

GTA 6 is expected to be released in Fall 2025, as announced by the game's publisher Take-Two Interactive.

Beyond the current news, Grand Theft Auto 6 follows in the footsteps of its predecessors in the Grand Theft Auto series, a franchise renowned for its expansive open world, deep storytelling, and action-packed gameplay. Since its inception with the first GTA game in 1997, the series has garnered critical acclaim and a massive fanbase, consistently setting industry sales records. GTA 5, released in 2013, revolutionized open-world game design with its dynamic and interactive environment, engaging narrative, and the introduction of GTA Online—a multiplayer universe that continues to evolve with new content, keeping players engaged years after release. As GTA 6 gears up for its anticipated launch, expectations are high that the next installment will again push the boundaries of gaming entertainment.
