Online rumors recently pushed the narrative that GTA 6 had already been internally delayed to 2026, but one former Rockstar Games lead has explained that the studio won't know whether the game needs more time in the oven until next summer.
Former Rockstar North technical director Obbe Vermeij has chimed in on the discourse to remind folks that "the decision to delay GTA 4 was made four months or so before the original release date. Any further and it's hard to make the call." GTA 6 still has another year in production, so Vermeij says that Rockstar "is probably not in a position to determine whether they will hit 2025 until May-ish."
