Rockstar Developers Never Believed GTA VI Would Launch in 2025

Jason Schreier reports Rockstar devs saw a 2025 GTA VI release as unrealistic, citing workload and reduced crunch.

Atleast they had the sense to delay it instead of releasing a game full of bugs.
I lived fine with out playing gta6 for 10+ years already, I can wait more. No biggie.

Palitera13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

They didn't delay anything. 2025 was never intended. Release dates for R* are just a marketing stunt.

chicken_in_the_corn7h ago

Most delayed games end up releasing full of bugs, anyway.

RaidenBlack14h ago

Neither did half of the gaming community.

ZycoFox14h ago

Prime year for Half Life 3 to release completely unchallenged for sales. I know both games are completely different, and it would only likely release on PC.. but still.

MDTunkown6h ago

Don’t expect massive sales for half life 3, it could face similar problem as final fantasy 7 rebirth

northpaws12h ago

PS5 Pro sales will probably skyrocket up for the next few weeks now.

With all the developers and studios closing that actually shipped product, the free pass given to this Rockstar team and of course the Star Citizen team must be infuriating.

Is anybody actually shocked at this news?

neutralgamer199215h ago(Edited 15h ago)

This was to be expected especially since a lot of GTA games come out around April. This news will make many publishers happy since now they don't have to worry about GTA6 overshadowing it

Profchaos15h ago

From memory all the PS2 ear games target late in the year October ish for holdiday sales u think it was only GTA IV that released in April because they was delayed out of 2007 into April 08 and GTA v was September also

neutralgamer199215h ago(Edited 15h ago)

Profchaos

Yes I was thinking of GTA IV since that was the game that released in April

I also think there's a big possibility that this game gets another delay to holiday season 2026 I hope I'm wrong about that

Profchaos15h ago

Totally agree this game could be delayed again I think all we have is a assurance that we won't have it before may next year but not much more than that .
I have a feeling that online will be split off and launch a month later akin to rdr2 and GTA v

Profchaos15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

Shocked no not at all disappointed yeah a little.
I expected it but still.

RaidenBlack14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Nah .... not one bit,
I was more waiting for when they'd announce the delay rather than if.
No way were they releasing that gargantuan game during that time with very little shown off.
GTA IV designer also shared similar experience during the recent 17th anniversary, that it (IV) got pushed back to 2008 from 2007 and that current GTA VI team might be facing similar decision.
What I kinda expected sorta, they'd drop a micro teaser with the delay announcement. Coulda helped the starving community.
Anyways, good for gaming industry as a whole as well. Lots a breathing room now. Plus, we are already getting Mafia this year and MindsEye (which might get a delay as well, since the late year block is much free now).

Killer2020UK11h ago

I for one am shocked to my core! Shocked I tell you! SHOCK ED

jambola11h ago

I was
then i realized it said 2026

harv05210h ago

I bet some are! I know that on some facebook groups, some people swore on their mother's life that GTA6 was coming out this year lol! Anyone with a braincell could see this coming from a.......year away!

-Foxtrot10h ago

As soon as Sony committed and gave Ghost of Yotei a solid release date in October I knew something was up.

Either they knew somehow or took a massive gamble.

Fonsecap9h ago

Of course not, but they had a bump in their share value though when they announced it for 2025, well played R*.
Well the other publishers can now release their games without being afraid of clashing with the release date of GTA VI. Maybe will have some sooner release dates for some games. One can always hope...

Tennebra-991h ago

i wonder what this means for Fable 4 :O

Muigi15h ago

Not even mad about this ngl.

VenomUK15h ago

Microsoft must’ve been made aware of Rockstar’s delay, that’s why it felt safe announcing price rises. Otherwise it would never make its consoles more expensive when GTA VI is out if PS5 is cheaper.

Profchaos15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

It's no big shock honestly when you look at the history of the franchise every single mainline entry has received a delay since GTA 3 they never meet the planed launch day. Even one of the stories games for significant delays or what felt significant at the time

Is it a disappointment yes but I know Rockstar are perfectionist so I have full faith it will be worth the wait

gold_drake15h ago

yeh i thought a 2025 release was abit soon bht now we know.

raWfodog10h ago

I've said that in a couple of my posts also. I didn't think 2025 release was going to happen.

badz1496h ago

A bit soon ha? It's not like the last game came 12 years ago and their last major release was 7 years ago, right?

gold_drake5h ago

what are u talking about

all we have from gta 6 is a trailer. nothing else.

get ur fanboy arse outta here.

italiangamer15h ago

So now I can't die before May 26th, 2026, good to know 🦖.

Cellblock1110h ago

You might want to push that date back at least a few weeks so you have time to play though.

lukasmain10h ago

So you can after on May 27th ?? Damn that still wont give you enough time with the game though ;)

If Rockstar Needed an Excuse to Charge $100 for GTA 6, Nintendo Just Pulled the Trigger

TNS: With the Nintendo Switch 2 bringing new games that cost $80 bucks, what's stopping Rockstar from giving GTA 6 a price tag of $100 or more?

badz14927d ago

Hopefully everyone will hate Nintendo with passion like they did Sony if this happens. $90 physical games here Nintendo comes!

But honestly, I applaud their balls going for that $450 pricetag with a 1080p lcd screen and a mere 256GB storage. Additional SD card is definitely needed and they're expensive and their games are expensives despite the 3rd party games being the worst version of the bunch.

Good luck, I guess.

CDbiggen27d ago

I feel like people aren't talking enough about the storage situation. It kind of has been overshadowed by the prices.

badz14927d ago

The price should make the matter worse if you consider the storage. And the mere 12GB of RAM, most probably only like 10GB usable due to the OS needing some reserves but that's being generous. Considering the "new" online features, I doubt 2GB of RAM is enough for the OS. With under 10GB RAM, you can just forget 4K even if the system supports 4K output. I think even 1440p will be reached only with DLSS. RT? Yeah maybe at 900p

Tacoboto27d ago

Steam Deck is $400 for a dramatically lower quality display - 800p 60hz non-HDR - and a lower capacity battery.

It has the superb ecosystem, but no baseline for performance and "Verified" lately tends to mean titles that just barely run on the thing.

CDbiggen27d ago

I was so disappointed by my steam deck's display, IPS glow and everything, only for them to bring out the OLED a year or so later. So like with pro model consoles, I now know to wait for the OLED models for handhelds.

badz14927d ago

Would be crucified for sating this but OLED is not the be all and end all for a good display and experience. Yeah, the Deck LCD is kinda bad, but I am still genuinely impressed by the display of the PS Portal which is also LCD. Reports are saying that the Switch 2 display is equally good too.

gold_drake27d ago

but to be very fair

people already said that they dont care about the price of gta6. so this will give rockstar even more push to do it

MarvelzDJ27d ago

Yeah but probably it will be worth it. If ubisoft or EA price their yearly crap games 100$ I wouldn‘t even consider buying them for a second.

gold_drake27d ago

no game is worth a 100 dollar price tag.

MarvelzDJ27d ago

R* doesn‘t need an excuse. Their games use to set the bar so high that no one even comes close for years and years. No company has come close to RDR2 when it comes to open worlds and the same will happen with GTA6.

FACTUAL evidence27d ago

I have no problem with companies wanting to charge 100$ for their games. I would just never buy them. 🙅
