An insider indicates that GTA 6 is being delayed to polish the game and take advantage of the holiday season
Rumors about a new delay for GTA 6 are intensifying. According to insider Tom Henderson, Rockstar's game would not arrive until October 2026, and its announcement would take place in November of this year.
The outlook is becoming more complicated for fans: what seemed like a delay of a few months could extend longer than expected. Henderson states that Rockstar aims to perfect the experience and take advantage of the holiday season to maximize sales.
Tom Henderson has reaffirmed that GTA 6 will not be released in May, as some rumors suggested. According to his sources, the most likely date would be October 2026, coinciding with a strategic launch on PC and next-generation consoles.
The insider explains that Rockstar is very perfectionistic and needs additional time to polish the gameplay and the game's final presentation. This approach also aims to ensure strong commercial performance during the holiday campaign.
Henderson indicates that the announcement could take place in November of this year, which would allow for confirming or disproving the rumors. If everything goes as planned, players will have more than a year of waiting from the initially scheduled date.
