Rockstar Games has officially confirmed that hotly-anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI is now delayed until May 26, 2026, pushing the highly anticipated sequel nearly a year past its originally expected launch window.
The delay isn't entirely unexpected. Rockstar is notorious for moving timelines to hit a standard of excellence. In their statement, the company thanked fans for their patience and reassured them that the extra development time will be used to ensure GTA VI is "the game we know it can be." Here's hoping it won't be a year of crunch for the gaming company, which is notorious for pushing its developers to work long hours to finish games.
