GTA 6 Really Coming Out in 2025? Jason Schreier Says 'It Would Be a Shock'

Even though Take-Two has often reiterated that GTA 6 will be released in 2025 and there have been no changes to the launch window, there remains a certain skepticism about this actual possibility with the fear of a postponement to 2026 always around the corner. And there are those, like Jason Schreier, who would find its arrival already next year incredible.

According to the well-known insider and Bloomberg journalist, in fact, the debut of Grand Theft Auto VI already in 2025 would be "a shock" considering that historically Rockstar Games is used to postponing its titles even at the last moment in order to best prepare them for their market debut. Indeed, some of the biggest blockbusters of the New York company such as GTA IV, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption II have all suffered more or less major postponements without respecting the company's initial launch forecasts.

Schreier specifies in any case that, according to the reports in his possession, the development of GTA VI is proceeding quickly and without hitches, with Rockstar theoretically fully respecting its own schedule. Despite this, given the company's precedents, the journalist would be truly surprised if GTA VI actually became a reality in 2025. It should be clarified that in this case these are simple thoughts of the insider that may not necessarily correspond to the truth, however given the enormous scope of the game it is extremely likely that Rockstar will publish it only and exclusively when it deems it truly ready to be released on the market, therefore the postponement hypothesis must inevitably be taken into consideration.

In the reports released by Schreier recently it emerged that GTA 6 will be more inclusive and careful not to offend minorities compared to past episodes, a detail that if confirmed would represent an important change in style and tone for the series.
