From massive in-development leaks to official confirmation of its existence, en masse internet speculation, and some idiot consulting a blooming psychic for a totally unscientific opinion, GTA 6 has been a long time coming. Its immediate predecessor, GTA 5, is now approaching its 10th birthday, having spanned three console generations since launch in September 2013. Much of the fifth main series Grand Theft Auto's enduring success today is owed to its complementary multiplayer off-shoot, GTA Online, which, as a package, has shifted somewhere in the region of 180 million units. That's according to publisher Take-Two, who has now given us our biggest tip regarding the GTA 6 release date yet.
"In Fiscal 2025, we expect to enter this new era by launching several groundbreaking titles that we believe will set new standards in our industry and enable us to achieve over $8 billion in Net Bookings and over $1 billion in Adjusted Unrestricted Operating Cash Flow," says Rockstar's parent company in its latest earnings report. "We expect to sustain this momentum by delivering additional growth in our operating results in Fiscal 2026 and beyond."
