The anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) continues to build, with fans eagerly awaiting any update from Rockstar Games.
Since the release of the first GTA 6 trailer in December 2023, the studio has remained tight-lipped about any further details, including an exact launch date.
However, speculation is growing that a release date reveal could happen in the coming weeks. Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two Interactive, previously confirmed during an earnings call in November that GTA 6 is still slated for an Autumn 2025 release.
Rockstar’s history of release dates
Gaming enthusiasts are pointing to Rockstar’s past patterns of announcing release dates just before Take-Two’s earnings calls. This trend has been seen with major titles such as:
- GTA 5
- GTA 4
- Max Payne 3
- A. Noire
- Red Dead Redemption 2 (announced on February 1)

If Rockstar follows the same approach, a GTA 6 release date could be unveiled in January or early February 2025, helping to boost investor confidence and fan excitement before Take-Two’s next financial report.
While many believe a release date announcement is imminent, others remain skeptical. Rockstar has changed its marketing approach over the years, leading some to believe the studio won’t follow past trends.
For now, nothing has been officially confirmed, and fans are advised to take rumours with a pinch of salt until Rockstar makes an official announcement.
