There is No More Delay for GTA 6
A striking statement has been made about GTA 6, the most eagerly awaited game in the GTA series. Obbe Vermeij, one of the former producers of the series and who worked for Rockstar Games for many years, said that the game will definitely be released on May 26, 2026. Vermeij, who previously took the helm of many games from Grand Theft Auto III to IV, made this statement after the official release date. According to him, if Rockstar announces the date so clearly, it means it is completely confident in it. This situation has largely eliminated the possible postponement possibilities in the minds of players.
No More Postponements for GTA 6
Vermeij drew attention to the company’s past policies in his statement regarding the release date of GTA 6. Although there were postponements in previous Rockstar games, none of them were given a definite date. For example, Red Dead Redemption 2 was postponed indefinitely, first to Spring 2018, then to Fall 2018. The same was true for Grand Theft Auto V. However, the May 26, 2026 date given for GTA 6 has been shared as a clear date this time. Vermeij stated that if Rockstar announced this date, he is 100% sure that the game will be ready on that day.
Rockstar’s other major productions in the HD universe, Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto IV, L.A. Noire and Max Payne 3, were all released in late April or May. Considering this traditional calendar, GTA 6’s May 26 date both coincides with the company’s past policies and indicates a planned launch process. Vermeij’s prediction has become definite among fans until more information about the game’s promotional process is released.
Vermeij’s statements were not limited to the release date. The experienced name also shared some details about the game’s promotional process. Accordingly, the mystery of GTA 6 is planned to be completely preserved and a new trailer may not be released until the release date. Similar to Rockstar’s past marketing strategies, this time it is aimed to create maximum expectations with minimum information about the game. It is thought that the company prefers to keep its promotional materials limited, especially in order not to lose its surprise effect.
Vermeij’s previous statements and predictions were largely correct. For this reason, these last words are also considered reliable in circles close to Rockstar. As the game’s release date approaches, new details are expected to be shared. However, the only certainty for now is that GTA 6 will meet players exactly on May 26, 2026.
