Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, remains steadfast in its commitment to releasing *Grand Theft Auto 6* in the fall of 2025. This confirmation came alongside the company's financial results for the third quarter ending December 31, 2024, where *GTA 6* was listed for release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. This update reassures fans that, for the time being, the game is still on track with its originally announced release window, with no delays reported.
In an interview with IGN prior to the financial report's release, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick expressed cautious optimism about meeting the fall 2025 deadline. "Look, there's always a risk of slippage and I think as soon as you say words like absolutely, you jinx things," Zelnick remarked. "So we feel really good about it." When pressed for details on the development progress of *GTA 6*, Zelnick remained tight-lipped but acknowledged the high anticipation both within the company and among fans, emphasizing Rockstar's pursuit of perfection.
The release date of *GTA 6* continues to be a focal point across the entertainment industry, with competitors like EA closely monitoring Rockstar's moves. EA CEO Andrew Wilson recently hinted at potentially delaying the next *Battlefield* game, depending on when *GTA 6* hits the market.
