Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick put an end to the speculations about the release date of GTA 6 in an interview with CNBC. This highly anticipated game will be released in late 2025 as planned. However, it was initially announced that it could only be played on consoles. This means PC players will have to wait a little longer.
Take-Two CEO: Has GTA 6 been postponed?
Zelnick opposed rumors that GTA 6 would be delayed, stating that the game is expected to be released in late 2025. The planned release period was stated as September – December 2025. This means that gamers can wait for GTA 6 with great excitement in the autumn months.
“Looking ahead, we believe Take-Two is extremely well positioned for the long term,” the CEO said in his statements. “Our vision is clear, our talent is unmatched, and we have one of the strongest intellectual property portfolios in our industry.” He included his statements. These statements leave a positive impression about the company’s future projects and value creation potential.
Reasons for GTA 6’s Delay
So, why was GTA 6 delayed? On this subject, Zelnick stated that one of the biggest reasons for the game’s late release was optimization. The gaming world is working hard to provide the high quality that users expect. Optimization is a critical stage to increase the performance of a game and improve the user experience.
In this regard, sales of GTA 5 reached 195 million, which sets a rather high bar for GTA 6. Considering the success of the game, intense work is being done to ensure that GTA 6 achieves a similar success.
Expectations for GTA 6
The fact that GTA 6’s first trailer received more than 100 million views in just a few days when it was released clearly shows the excitement of the game. Currently, this record-breaking cinematic trailer has over 217 million views. This increases the interest of players and fans in the new game.
The release of the second trailer is awaited with great curiosity. Many gamers can’t wait to learn more about the game’s content, characters, map and gameplay dynamics. Therefore, Take-Two’s future launches are expected to make a big impact.
The Future of GTA 6
Take-Two announced that, apart from GTA VI, other exciting projects will be released in the fall of 2026, such as Borderlands 4 and Mafia: The Old Country. This shows that the company is making plans to strengthen its position in the gaming industry and offer various experiences to players.
As a result, the release date of GTA 6 has been determined and gamers are looking forward to stepping into this magnificent world towards the end of 2025. It is useful to follow the game world for more information and updates about the game.
