Rockstar Delays Highly Anticipated GTA 6 by Over a Year

In a move that has disappointed many fans, Rockstar Games has announced a significant delay in the release of the highly anticipated GTA 6. According to the latest update, the game's launch has been pushed back to May 26, 2026, marking the second delay this year.

Back in May, Rockstar had initially set the release date for May 26, 2026, just days before dropping a highly anticipated trailer. However, the studio has now revealed that additional time is needed to ensure the game meets the quality standards expected by fans.

In a statement shared across their social media channels, Rockstar Games addressed the delay, expressing their gratitude for the patience and support of their loyal fanbase. The studio emphasized their excitement for players to experience the sprawling state of Leonida and a return to the modern-day Vice City.

While the delay may be disappointing for some, Rockstar's focus on refinement suggests they are committed to delivering a game that lives up to the franchise's legacy. With the additional time, the studio aims to provide players with an immersive and polished experience that will be worth the wait.
