Rockstar delays GTA VI to 2026
More polish time, less room for haste
Vice Hub
In 2025 Rockstar announced a delay for GTA VI, moving the launch to 2026. The stated reason was direct: additional time to deliver the game at the expected level.
Delays are rarely popular, but the reaction was less hostile than expected. The community treated the statement as a signal of scale rather than trouble.
The practical effect was that the entire industry calendar reorganized around the new window.
