We now have over a year to wait to finally play GTA 6, with Rockstar officially confirming that its new Grand Theft Auto installment is set to arrive on May 26, 2026 instead of this fall, and one former technical director agrees that it's a "bummer."
Reacting to the GTA 6 delay on Twitter, Obbe Vermeij, who worked on GTA 3, 4, Vice City, and San Andreas in his time at Rockstar before departing the company in 2009, does think that there's a positive to take from this latest announcement, at least. "The good news is that they are clearly confident they are going to make May," he argues. "Otherwise they wouldn't have given a date."
