Why the GTA 6 release date has other game publishers running scared


Releasing at the same time as GTA 6 would be a death sentence for many titles

According to a new report by Bloomberg ’s Jason Schreier, publishers are monitoring the GTA 6 release date to see whether it will make its deadline of late 2025, or if it will slip into 2026. Schreier says that GTA 6 has already missed “multiple deadlines”, which is apparently common practice at Rockstar, but publisher Take-Two said the game is on track. Rockstar will hope Grand Theft Auto 6 can replicate the phenomenal success of GTA 5, which has generated around $9 billion in revenue.
