Since its official announcement in December 2023 , anticipation for the game has only grown. The first official trailer , released on Rockstar's social media channels, has surpassed 230 million views on YouTube , becoming one of the most-watched gaming videos on the platform. Despite its success, the lack of new updates has sparked speculation about a possible delay to 2026 .
GTA 6 Release: Expectations and Rumors
Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick stated in an interview with IGN that GTA 6 is still scheduled for 2025. He stressed that Rockstar Games has a high standard of quality , but does not intend to prolong the game's development indefinitely.
Rumors of a delay began after a long period of silence from the company in 2024. However, Zelnick reinforced that the studio is committed to releasing GTA 6 on time and that 2025 will be one of the most important years in Take-Two's history .
If Rockstar sticks to its schedule, it will release the game around 12 years after GTA 5 , which hit the market in 2013. This is the longest gap between releases in the franchise.
GTA 6 price may be higher than expected
Besides the wait for the game, one of the issues that most concerns fans is the possible price increase of GTA 6. Some analysts suggest that, due to the franchise's popularity , Take-Two could set an initial price of up to $100 without compromising sales.
AAA game prices have risen to $70 , a standard adopted by many companies since the launch of the new generation of consoles. However, an increase above this price could affect public reception .
Some in the community argue that the growth of microtransactions and special editions already guarantees sufficient profit for developers. However, some experts argue that raising the initial price could alienate players and impact launch sales .
Rockstar Games and Take-Two have yet to officially comment on the game's price.
Expectations for the second trailer and new information
With Rockstar yet to announce an official release date, GTA 6 remains one of the industry's most anticipated games . Rockstar is continuing its strategy of revealing information at its own pace , avoiding traditional events like E3 or Gamescom .
The biggest anticipation now is the second trailer , which may reveal new details about the gameplay, setting, and characters . The first video already confirmed that the game will be set in Vice City , with protagonist Lucia as one of the central characters.
While Rockstar doesn't reveal any new information, fans remain attentive to any official news .
