Grand Theft Auto 6 remains on track for November 2026

After several delays, it appears that Grand Theft Auto 6 will finally launch this year. During its recent earnings call, Rockstar parent company, Take-Two, reaffirmed the November 2026 release date, while also adding that marketing for the game will ramp up over the summer.

Speaking to IGN, Take-Two CEO, Stauss Zelnick said: “Our execution throughout Fiscal 2026 has been extraordinary and we are highly confident as we approach Fiscal 2027, which promises to be groundbreaking for Take-Two and the entire entertainment industry, led by the November 19th release of Grand Theft Auto VI with Rockstar’s launch marketing set to begin this Summer”.

The statement confirms two things – that Grand Theft Auto 6 is still on track for its November release date, and that we'll start to see more footage of the game over the summer, likely including a new trailer and the first details of the new GTA Online mode.

Unfortunately for PC gamers, there is no release date yet for the PC version of the game. At launch, Grand Theft Auto 6 will only be available on Xbox Series X/S and PS5 consoles. However, a PC version is expected to arrive in 2027.

KitGuru Says: Grand Theft Auto 6 has some lofty expectations to live up to. One has to hope that the single-player mode hasn't suffered in favour of the multiplayer component, which has been Rockstar's primary focus since shipping GTA V.
