GTA 6 official release date window and trailers

GTA 6 is set for a 2025 release, and while Rockstar has yet to announce the exact date, we already have a good idea of when to expect it. This will be the first new entry in the series since GTA 5 launched in 2013. Players are hyped about what GTA 6 will bring, so hyped that they some have been baited by John Cena’s Instagram posts and believe random leaks they come across online. While most people are taking these leaks as memes and joking about the long wait for GTA 6, we actually have a solid estimate of when the game will arrive. GTA 6 releases in Fall 2025 GTA 6 is expected to launch in Fall 2025, according to Take-Two Interactive’s 2Q25 earnings report. Take-Two, the parent company of Rockstar Games, explicitly mentions this is the release window for the game. That means we can expect GTA 6 to launch sometime between September 22 and December 21, 2025. Image via Rockstar Games Looking at past Take-Two releases and other major game launches toward the end of the year, it’s likely that GTA 6 will come out in late October or early November. This would help it avoid clashing with Borderlands 4, which is set to release on September 23, as well as late-year competitors like Call of Duty. While not a direct competitor, Nintendo is also expected to release Pokémon Legends: Z-A in late 2025. I would expect these two audiences not to clash, as I believe in the meme of Pokémon games being played by adults and mature games like GTA 6 being played by kids. So while they may not compete directly, it’s still a release date worth keeping in mind. 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. Eventually, someone will guess correctly and claim they were right, but that’s probably just because they predicted it every month until it finally happened. So, for now, you can either choose which rumor to believe in or just wait for Rockstar to release the trailer when they’re ready. All we have so far is the first GTA 6 trailer. GTA 6 has not been delayed GTA 6 has never been delayed since its official reveal in the first trailer. While Rockstar has been developing GTA 6 for a long time, we don't know what were their initial plans to release the game compared to where they landed. However, there was no change in the publicly announced and confirmed release date or window as we have right now. We will keep this story updated with any kind of official information based on Take-Two's and Rockstar's announcements.
