You can relax. Take-Two shortened GTA 6’s release window from one year to one month that year. Yes, despite rumors that the game might be delayed from 2025 to 2026, we now have an official announcement that the game will launch in the fall of 2025. In addition, “GTA 5” continues to sell well.
While the hype train for GTA 6 has been running smoothly since the first trailer arrived late last year, we’ve heard some potentially worrying things about its development in the meantime. But it looks like you don’t have to worry, you should be able to get this thing next year.

As part of its latest earnings report, Take-Two has officially confirmed that it’s aiming to release GTA 6 in autumn 2025 (that’s autumn for us in the UK), narrowing the previously mentioned 2025 release window.
“As we enter fiscal 2025 with positive momentum, we expect net bookings to be in the range of $555 to $5.65 billion,” CEO Strauss Zelnick said in the report. “Our outlook reflects Rockstar Games’ previous guidance for Grand Theft Auto. The 2025 calendar window set for Driver VI has been narrowed to the fall of 2025. “We are very confident that Rockstar Games will deliver an unparalleled entertainment experience, and our expectations for the game’s commercial impact continue to grow. “
So, that’s it. Fall 2025. You have just enough time to convince your boss to give you a whole month off to commit crimes in a place that’s not quite Florida, or get involved in other shenanigans that your grandma might disapprove of.
In addition, as a follow-up to the entire GTA series surpassing the 420 million sales mark in February, Take-Two revealed in this earnings report that GTA 5 has now easily exceeded the 200 million sales mark, and is rapidly breaking through. That time is near.
GTA Online isn’t perfect, but it and the game’s main story still seem to be helping keep growth going by getting more people to pay to return to Los Santos or travel there for the first time.
In other recent Rockstar-related news, some data mining has sparked a new round of speculation that the first Red Dead Redemption may finally be coming to PC in the near future.
