Was it just a dream or did GTA 6 really get announced last week? Incredibly, yes. The next entry in theGrand Theft Autoseries is finally underway with Rockstar finally confirming that development is in “active development”.
Now the biggest question on everyone’s lips is when will GTA 6 release? Grand Theft Auto V launched on September 17th, 2013, so if the next game magically launches later this year (it won’t), that would be a whopping nine years in between releases. Naturally, rumours and speculation are in full swing as everyone tries to figure out when the game will actually be made playable.
Going off its history and Rockstar has released six out of its seven mainline GTA games in either October or September, so that’s where my head is at. The only exception to this is GTA IV, which launched in April. However, it was initially slated to launch on October 16th before being pushed quite late on to April.
So we’ve got the potential month nailed down – what about the year? Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier (viaTwitter) stated shortly after GTA 6’s announcement that he “wouldn’t be shocked” to see a “Fall 2023” release date, before seeing it then be delayed to 2024.
