GTA 6 has become one of the most important and anticipated games of today, but also in a stone in the way for major video game developers. The reason is very simple, the anticipation and interest it has generated is so great that the competition is taking measures to prevent their further releases right before the launch of a new Rockstar product.

Nobody wants their next flagship to arrive at the same time or very close to the release of GTA 6, and it makes perfect sense. If this game happened ends with an eclipse to launch a new Rockstar product and that would affect its sales.

We have already seen similar situations with highly anticipated games in previous years. For example, one of the editions with which It usually avoids matching it’s new Call of Duty every yearand occasionally it also happened with other titles from different franchises that generated a lot of anticipation at the time.

In this case, the weight given to GTA 6 is so great that developers and publishers are very clear about their strategy and push the launch of their games as far as possible from the arrival of the said title, even though This means a significant delay the launch date they originally planned.

When is GTA 6 coming?

The release of this game is expected end of 2025, specifically between the months of October, November and December. This date has been officially confirmed and reconfirmed by Take-Two, who are the game’s publisher, but it’s important to make it clear that it’s not final, meaning there could be delays.

The first version to arrive will be the console version, followed by the PC version later. This version does not have a specific release date yet, but as I mentioned in other articles, it will most likely arrive. between six months and a year after the console version.

If GTA 6 arrives in November next year for example, a PC version could arrive between March and November 2026. In case of delay, this version could even go until 2027. Patience, in the end it seems that the wait has paid off, at least we can tell from all the information so far and from the trailer shown by Rockstar itself.
