GTA 6 has been delayed twice already, and 2026 kicked off with speculation that yet another delay was imminent. That, as PC Gamer’s Tyler Wilde explained, arose from a misinterpretation of a comment made by Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier, but even so some fans are clearly on edge.
One redditor in this thread, for instance, says “the fact that they haven’t released any BAD news yet is already good news,” leading another to counter that “to me it seems like the lack of communications is bad.”
For myself, I wouldn’t bet on another delay but I won’t be terribly surprised if it happens. Take-Two could let GTA 6 slip into early 2027 and still have it release in the company’s fiscal year, minimizing its disruption on the company’s finances.
Pushing it back a few months would also mean missing out on the 2026 holiday quarter, but does Grand Theft Auto 6 need the holiday quarter? Or is it more accurate to say the holiday quarter needs Grand Theft Auto 6?
On the PC gaming side of things, it’s all academic anyway: A PC version still hasn’t been confirmed, and even if Take-Two gives us the thumbs-up tomorrow, it’s a sure thing that it won’t be out until sometime in 2027—and maybe even later.
Whatever happens, I think this guy has the right idea.
We’ll have our eyes open for Take-Two’s Q3 financials tomorrow—they usually drop around 1 pm PT/4 pm ET—and we’ll let you know how it goes.
