Take-Two CEO Confirms New GTA 6 Release Date—No More Delays Expected

GTA 6 Faces Another Delay

Grand Theft Auto fans, buckle up! GTA 6 just got delayed again, now eyeing a new launch date of November 19, 2026. This marks the third time Rockstar and Take-Two have pushed back the highly anticipated game. While delays are never fun, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick assures us he’s “highly confident” this will be the last one.

Better Late Than Buggy

Zelnick doesn’t mince words when it comes to game development. He says, “When games are released too early, bad things happen.” Ouch. We’ve seen that movie before—looking at you, Cyberpunk! While some may groan at the wait, it’s a relief to hear the publisher prioritizes quality over a rushed release. After all, nobody wants their first GTA 6 experience ruined by game-breaking bugs or missing features.

Let’s be honest: We’re all dying to cruise around Vice City again. But if a few more months (or years—who’s counting?) means a smoother ride, most fans would agree it’s the right call. Besides, what’s another delay when you’ve already been waiting for a decade? At this point, GTA 6 is like that mythical unicorn—always just out of reach, but you can’t stop believing.
