GTA 6 is scaring the entire industry into avoiding November like the plague, and for a good reason. This will probably be the biggest game of all time and is likely already the most expensive piece of entertainment ever made, so it’s only reasonable to think developers would try to dodge any form of competition with Rockstar at that point.
But that produced an unexpected result. While I sort of believed developers would just delay their games into next year or try to pack them into the summer as blockbuster launches, it turns out that most of them just went up and set their release dates for September instead.
And on Tuesday, during Sony’s latest State of Play, so many games confirmed September as their release month that I now dread that part of the year, considering how much stuff I’ll have to tell you about every single day.
