GTA 6 official release date and trailers
For months, Grand Theft Auto 6 was set for a 2025 release. While Rockstar hadn't announced an exact date, that's changed as of May 2, 2025. Unfortunately, there's some bad news for anyone looking to play in 2025. When is GTA 6 releasing? Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 will launch on May 26, 2026. While Rockstar previously planned for a Fall 2025 release window, it has since delayed the game's launch to nearly halfway through next year. This confirmation originated from an official news article released on Rockstar's site. It immediately sets the tone by stating that GTA 6 will launch on May 26, 2026. They didn't divulge the cause of the delay, but it can range from wanting to fine-tune its quality to unknown complications.Image via Rockstar Games Image via Rockstar Games The original window for GTA 6's Fall 2025 launch date came from Take-Two Interactive’s 2Q25 earnings report. Take-Two, the parent company of Rockstar Games, explicitly mentioned this was the release window for the game. With that in mind, the original expectation for GTA 6's launch was sometime between September 22 and December 21, 2025. It even had high odds of releasing in late October or early November based on past Take-Two release dates and other major releases like Borderland 4, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and Call of Duty coming out at similar times. No confirmed date for GTA 6’s second trailer There’s no official word on when the second GTA 6 trailer will drop. While there have been trailer two rumors and predictions, the truth is that every time you search for trailer leaks, someone will have a theory about why it’s coming out "in the next two weeks"—no matter when you check. Rockstar's announcement about GTA 6's delay to May 26 also didn't include any additional images, gameplay information, or trailers, so it can appear any day now. Eventually, someone will guess correctly and claim they were right, but that’s likely just because they predicted it every month until it finally happened. So, for now, you can choose which rumor to believe in or wait for Rockstar to release the trailer when they're ready. All we have so far is the first GTA 6 trailer. At the time of writing, there's no word on whether any subsequent delays or cancellations will occur. We'll keep this story updated with official information based on Take-Two’s and Rockstar’s announcements. The post GTA 6 official release date and trailers appeared first on Destructoid.
