Since the official announcement, in December 2023 , the expectation for the game only grows. The first official trailer , released on Rockstar's social networks, exceeded 230 million views on YouTube , becoming one of the platform's most watched games. Despite the success, the lack of new updates has generated speculation about a possible postponement to 2026 .
GTA 6 Launch: Expectations and Rumors
Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick said in an interview with IGN that GTA 6 continues scheduled for 2025 . He stressed that Rockstar Games has a high quality standard , but does not intend to indefinly prolong the development of the game.
Rumors about a postponement began after a long period of silence of the company in 2024 . However, Zelnick stressed that the studio is committed to launching GTA 6 on time and that 2025 will be one of the most important years in Take-Two history .
If Rockstar maintains the schedule, it will launch the game about 12 years after GTA 5 , which hit the market in 2013. This is the biggest interval between the franchise releases.
GTA 6 Price can be higher than expected
In addition to waiting for the game, one of the questions that most worry fans is the possible increase in the price of GTA 6 . Some analysts suggest that due to the franchise popularity , Take-TWO can establish an initial value of up to $ 100 without compromising sales.
In recent years, the prices of AAA games have risen to $ 70 , a standard adopted by many companies since the launch of the new generation of consoles. However, an increase above this value could affect the public reception .
Part of the community argues that the growth of microtransations and special editions already guarantees enough profit for developers. However, for some experts, raising the starting price could ward off players and impact sales at release .
Rockstar Games and Take-Two have not yet officially pronounced on the value of the game.
Expectation for the second trailer and new information
As Rockstar has not yet released the official release date, GTA 6 continues among the most anticipated industry games . Thus, Rockstar maintains its strategy of revealing information in its own pace , without following traditional events like E3 or Gamescom .
The highest expectation now is for the second trailer , which can bring new details about gameplay, setting and characters . The first video has already confirmed that the game will take place in Vice City , with protagonist Lucia as one of the central characters.
While Rockstar does not reveal new information, fans remain attentive to any official news .
