GTA 6 release date probably won't be delayed again, says Take Two's CEO


GTA 6 was recently pushed back to May 26, 2026

According to Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick in a recent interview with CNBC, GTA 6’s delay was “pretty short” from the original planned release, which was previously promised to be 'Fall 2025' after the first trailer aired back in December 2023. Rockstar has a pretty good track record of delivering on its promised release dates, even if a game is initially delayed. In the interview, Zelnick also noted that the delay amounted to “less than six months”, highlighting that Rockstar may have initially targeted a November or December release date for the title, although that is purely speculation.
