However, take everything here with a grain of salt until Rockstar officially announces the game's release date. The pattern shows that two years separate the reveal and release of its two most recent games, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, so it's likely that GTA 6 might be released in 2024. In March 2022, Rockstar Mag's Chris Klippel took to Twitter to report that Rockstar Games has reached "an important step in the development of GTA 6." To this end, Klippel says that things should start speeding up internally and an official announcement and reveal could happen in 2022.Īddition to this, Klippel speculates GTA 6 could release in 2024, basing this date off the release schedule of previous Rockstar Games' titles. With these details taken into account, it's likely that a 2024/2025 release date for GTA 6 makes more sense, so that's a lot further way than fans hoped for, but we'll have to wait for Rockstar Games announce its official release date. The third reason Henderson explained for the 2024/2025 release date is GTA 5's popularity, claiming that Rockstar would likely not want to release the GTA 6 while GTA 5 is still enjoying its massive success.īloomberg reporter Jason Schreier supported Henderson's prediction, saying that Henderson's claims "matches up with what I've heard".

Given the current shortages for PS5 and Xbox Series X, the developer is waiting until there is a "big enough market" for these consoles. According to Henderson, Rockstar didn't want to announce GTA 6 until it was confident that it will hit its release date, with the aim to prevent delays.Īnother reason Henderson claims is that GTA 6 will only be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
The most important one is that apparently, Rockstar Games has been focusing seriously on "employee wellbeing", with the company aiming to avoid crunch culture. Henderson explained the reasons for this release window. In the video, the leaker predicts that Rockstar Games won't release GTA 6 until between 20, according to sources. The leaker, who's mainly known for his accurate leaks on Call of Duty and Battlefield, uploaded a video sharing various GTA 6 details. This almost lines up with leaker Tom Henderson's prediction of GTA 6's release date. If this prediction is accurate, it's likely that GTA 6 will be released sometime between April 2023 and March 2024. Cohen noted that previous marketing budgets have predicted the releases of other upcoming major titles from Take-Two Interactive, including Red Dead Redemption. As reported by VentureBeat, Take-Two's 10-K SEC filing from 2020 (which showed financial plans for the next give years) reveals that the company expects to spend $89 million on marketing between April 2023, and the end of March 2024, which, the report points out, is a huge spike.Īccording to industry analyst Jeff Cohen, GTA 6 is the reason for this spike, as it's expected to release within this period. The Kotaku report didn't provide any information about GTA 6's release, but publisher Take-Two Interactive's marketing budget may have shared the game's best release date hint yet. So it's likely that the game may be further along in development than we expected. According to a report from Kotaku, this "new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series" was in early development as of April 2020, and that the new installment is planned to be a "moderately sized release" which will be "expanded with regular updates over time". 2022, Rockstar Games officially confirmed that GTA 6 is already in "active development".
