GTA 6 Release Date Could Be Delayed Again

GTA 6, which the gaming world has been waiting for for years, continues to have a big impact on the industry even before its release. However, Rockstar Games’ previously announced May 2026 release date does not seem guaranteed according to recent claims. According to Bloomberg writer Jason Schreier, while many studios in the industry are hesitant about this date, the possibility of the game being delayed again is on the table.

GTA 6 Impact Continues, Industry Cautious

Jason Schreier evaluated the effects of GTA 6 on the industry and the uncertainty of the release schedule in his latest news published in Bloomberg. According to Schreier, Rockstar’s previous date change put pressure on other game studios. It was stated that some development teams postponed their games, which were planned to be released in the fall of 2025, to the spring of 2026. It is stated that this postponement is due to both the need for development and the desire to avoid coinciding with GTA 6.

However, it is not clear whether Rockstar Games will stick to the May 2026 date. Schreier said, “Since Rockstar has changed the date once, it is not out of the question for this to happen again.” In other words, while other studios are planning according to the new release date, the possibility of GTA 6 being delayed again could cause them even more trouble.

The impact of GTA 6 was not limited to small-scale games. According to Schreier, large multiplayer projects also prefer to stay away from this date. It is known that names such as Hideo Kojima are also reviewing the schedules of their projects. It is said that even big series such as EA’s Battlefield are closely following Rockstar’s plans.

Although expectations in the industry are high, it is not yet clear that GTA 6 will definitely be released in May 2026. There has been no official update from Rockstar on this issue, but the gaming world is eagerly waiting to see if this date will change again.
