According to Kotaku’s sources who claim to have insider knowledge, Grand Theft Auto VI’s launch may slip into 2026. This means the game’s early 2025 release date may see a delay if production falls behind as a “fallback plan”. This news comes after Rockstar announced that it would be ending its hybrid work policy in order to increase productivity as the game’s launch is steadily approaching. The first Grand Theft Auto VI trailer released back in December and has over 107 million views. The Grand Theft Auto VI reveal trailer starts by showing protagonist Lucia who we learn is in prison after what seems to be a robbery attempt gone wrong with an unnamed partner. The trailer also reveals that it is set in Leonida Vice City, which the trailer shows is fond of social media, is incredibly crime ridden, and is teeming with alligators and crocodiles. The trailer also shows multiple locations including a club, a strip club, hoods, beaches, and city streets. It also shows several types of cars, motorcycles, and boats. Grand Theft Auto VI will launch sometime in 2025. The game will launch for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
