Grand Theft Auto VI is known to be released next year 2025. A current financial report is now obviously further narrowing down this previously fairly general release period.
So when is Grand Theft Auto VI coming? The open-world action sequel has been official since the end of last year thanks to the first published trailer, but Rockstar Games has left many other details open to date. This can probably also be explained with regard to the release period, which has been confirmed quite generally as 2025 and is still a long way away. A current financial report from publisher Take-Two Interactive provides a bit more clarity in this regard.
In the annual report, the publisher of course also takes a look into the future. The forecast for the 2025 fiscal year has been corrected; During this period, instead of the previously communicated $8 billion, sales are now only expected to be $7 billion.
According to market analysts Nick McKay and Michael Pachter, this correction ultimately means one thing for certain: Grand Theft Auto VI is not expected from Take-Two Interactive in the 2025 fiscal year; after all, the action epic will be a colossally large sales driver, which is reflected in the new forecast no longer reflected.
It’s important to know: Take-Two’s 2025 fiscal year runs from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025. This means that a release of GTA 6 in the first quarter of the new calendar year would probably be off the table and you can look forward to a longer one Wait until the new year. According to market analysts, the reduction in sales expectations could mean that GTA 6 was originally planned for the first quarter of the 2025 calendar year – but has now been postponed internally.
However, McKay and Pachter add that it is unlikely that Rockstar Games will generally postpone the game from the 2025 calendar year. The annual report only provides more clarity that this will not happen until the second quarter of the calendar year at the earliest.
Fans of the series may have already expected this, as major GTA titles have historically tended to release in either September or October. Will this happen again in the case of Grand Theft Auto VI? We will keep you up to date!
