$2 Billion Investment in GTA 6, On Track for 2025 Release

Take-Two Interactive is standing firm on Grand Theft Auto VI‘s scheduled Fall 2025 release, despite growing impatience and delay rumors among fans. Following the game’s massive $2 billion investment, this release will mark Rockstar Games’ only new title for the 2020s, a departure from its historically frequent output.

Rockstar reaffirmed the 2025 timeline in its 2024 annual report, stating that GTA 6 remains a top priority. The company released the first trailer in December 2023 and promises further updates, including a highly anticipated second trailer expected between October and December this year, likely aligning with PlayStation’s 30th anniversary and the PlayStation 5 Pro release.

While fans are thrilled, the atmosphere remains tense, with insiders offering conflicting reports on potential delays. Even a former GTA lead developer recently hinted that a delay remains possible. Meanwhile, Rockstar is also bolstering Grand Theft Auto Online‘s anti-cheat measures, suggesting similar protections for GTA 6 on PC. In another development, files from a recent update confirmed that Rockstar is working on PC ports for GTA V: Expanded and Enhanced and GTA 6, though the latter might see a delayed PC release, consistent with Rockstar’s usual pattern.
