Rockstar Games is a habitual offender when it comes to delaying games, which is why fans have been suffering and waiting for GTA 6 for ages. The game got its first trailer back in December 2023 and was
supposed to make a debut in 2025. Then came the first delay and the announcement that the game would make it to the consoles starting in May 2026. However, Rockstar felt that it would be better to increase the delay a little more, that too at a time when fans are expecting the final trailer, and we got the new release date for GTA 6 - November 19, 2026. Now, rumours have it that the game could get delayed until 2027, which is nothing less than heartbreaking for fans. But wait, does that statement hold any truth?
GTA 6 Delayed Until 2027? No, And The Chances Are Slim
For all the fans, no, there is not going to be any other delay as of now. According to the last official statement, the game will make its debut on November 19, 2026. Furthermore, a popular Rockstar Insider, Reece 'Kiwi Talkz' Reilly, suggested that there is no word on the delay and the studio is trying its best to not delay the game any further or disappoint the fans.Former Rockstar Games developer Mike York has also issued a kind of warning for the studio, suggesting that any kind of delay at this point in time could kill the excitement around GTA 6. York said, 'We’ve been waiting so long for GTA 6 already that if there was to be another delay, people will probably stop caring about its release even more. If Rockstar Games delays GTA 6 again, then the hype around the game will die down almost completely. Right now, nobody is searching for GTA 6. Everyone knows there’s no news, there’s nothing to talk about… There’s a point to where you delay something so much that you start to make people angry… People aren’t itching to find new details or the latest leak anymore; they’re over it.'
