It's official: GTA 6 will be released on May 26, 2026

Rockstar Games has officially announced that GTA VI will be released on May 26, 2026.

Well, at least now we won't live in the unknown, because until today there was no official news about the new game, and more than 500 days have passed since the first trailer was released.

The announcement was accompanied by the following message:

Hi everyone, Grand Theft Auto VI is now set to release on May 26, 2026.

We are very sorry that this is later than you expected. The interest and excitement surrounding a new Grand Theft Auto has been truly humbling for our entire team. We want to thank you for your support and your patience as we work to finish the game.

With every game we have released, the goal has always been to try and exceed your expectations, and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception. We hope you understand that we need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve.

We look forward to sharing more information with you soon.

Sincerely,
Rockstar Games
