The official reveal of Rockstar Games’ next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, GTA 6, is set to happen soon, based on the latest rumor.
According to Tez2 on GTAForums, who is regarded as a trusted source of information on upcoming GTA and Red Dead Redemption titles and updates, GTA 6 will be getting an official reveal sometime soon, possibly before the end of 2023.
In his post on GTAForums, Tez2 mentioned that everything seems to line up for a high likelihood of Rockstar announcing GTA 6 soon, possibly in the coming month. As per them, we may end up seeing a new collectible or a new hunt relating to GTA VI in the December update for GTA V, much like with the treasure hunt that came with the Doomsday Heist update. That said, they said that if it doesn’t happen in the December update and the announcement is pushed back by a few months, it may end up happening in the Summer update instead. A new hunt, a collectible, or a random event on Cayo Perico to tease GTA 6 would make the most sense, according to them.
Previously, Take-Two Interactive Software had hinted on multiple occasions that GTA 6 will arrive sometime during the period of April, 2024 and March, 2025. During the company’s Fiscal First Quarter 2024 earnings call, Take-Two Interactive Software CEO and chairman, Strauss Zelnick, had stated that he remained confident about positioning the business for a significant inflection point in Fiscal 2025, which he believed will include new record levels of operating performance.
Zelnick thanked all of the company’s stakeholders for their continued support, and looked forward to delivering on this “exciting next chapter”, likely hinting at the release of the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, GTA 6. Given that Take-Two Interactive Software’s Fiscal Year 2025 takes place between April, 2024 and March, 2025, the publisher appears to be planning to launch GTA 6 during this period.
Similarly, during its Fourth Quarter 2023 earnings call, Take-Two Interactive had stated that Fiscal Year 2025 is a highly anticipated year for the company. For the last several years, the company had been preparing its business to release an incredibly robust pipeline of projects that it believes will take it to even greater levels of success.
