GTA 6 will not be delayed

The confirmation came in an official document from the producer, which stated its commitment to release the sequel to the famous and beloved franchise at the end of 2025. A game with such a large appeal is often the source of rumors, and this is not even the first time that Take-Two has had to confirm the release date of GTA 6.

But the timing was right, as these rumors of postponement were being fueled by several problems and setbacks that were happening in the gaming community, which led many to believe that they could have also affected the new chapter of the franchise.

Document provides more information about the game

The document also provides some more information about the game. According to it, Take-Two promises to bring the biggest GTA in the franchise so far, which was already expected by many. In addition to what we already knew from the trailer, such as the fact that Vice City will be the main city, but with a wider map, which will cover the entire area of ​​the fictional state of Leonida.

In addition, Take-Two also shared the producer’s financial reports, revealing that GTA 6 will indeed be available for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S and X consoles. They also confirmed that the game will feature next-gen graphics, which was also expected from the trailer, as well as a grand map, with an open-world experience even more advanced than in the other titles.

While they don’t say there’s no chance of a delay, the document at least states that the recent rumors are false and that, so far, there’s no reason to delay the game’s release, which is good news. At least, if it happens, the producer should officially communicate it.

This also serves to put a stop to current claims that GTA 6 will not run at 4K resolution and 60 FPS on the new consoles.

What to expect from GTA 6?

The GTA 6 trailer was released in December 2026 and became one of the most-watched videos on YouTube, breaking records. To date, it is the only official material for the title, and it is no wonder that it surpassed the 200 million views mark and became analysis material for several YouTube channels, which analyzed each scene in detail.

What we know so far is that GTA 6 will be set in Vice City, a city inspired by Miami, with diverse biomes, including tropical areas and swamps. The game will feature two playable protagonists, one of which is Lucia, the first female protagonist in the series, in a Bonnie and Clyde-style couple dynamic.

As for the gameplay, there is no confirmed information yet, but it is expected to bring new features such as instant switching between characters, improved stealth mechanics, a health system based on painkillers and improvements to the police wanted system. Other speculations suggest the return of minigames, such as 3×3 basketball, and the introduction of new mechanics, such as mutilations and more realistic weather changes.
