As the gaming world continues its wait, Grand Theft Auto VI remains officially slated for a Fall 2025 release—yet Rockstar Games has maintained radio silence for more than 16 months since the game’s initial reveal in December 2023. With key industry dates on the horizon, all eyes are now on when Rockstar and its parent company Take-Two Interactive will finally break the silence.
Will the Next GTA 6 Update Happen This Month?
Rockstar is known for timing major announcements—such as trailers or big reveals—around Take-Two Interactive’s quarterly earnings calls. These events are a strategic opportunity to boost investor confidence and increase share prices. However, despite several earnings reports over the past year, no new information about GTA 6 has surfaced since its original reveal.
That may be about to change.
According to a press release from April 17th, Take-Two’s next Q4 2025 and Fiscal Year earnings report is scheduled for Thursday, May 15th at 4:30pm ET. Since this earnings report outlines projections for the upcoming fiscal year—and GTA 6 is expected to launch within it—it’s considered a prime window for Rockstar to provide an update. That could mean a new trailer, screenshots, or in a less ideal scenario, an official delay announcement.
What If GTA 6 Gets Delayed?
With the release window now within view, the lack of news is starting to concern fans and analysts alike. If a delay to 2026 is on the table, Take-Two will be required to inform investors ahead of time due to its impact on projected earnings. That means May 15th could be a make-or-break date.
Another possible date to watch is the next quarterly earnings report, expected around August 14th, which could also serve as the fallback announcement window if Rockstar chooses to remain silent this month.
Veteran Developer Weighs In
Adding to the conversation, Obbe Vermeij, a former technical director at Rockstar North, offered his perspective on Twitter during the 17th anniversary of GTA IV. Reflecting on how GTA IV was delayed just four months ahead of its intended launch in 2007, he said he believes there’s only a 50/50 chance GTA 6 makes its 2025 window. He also pointed to the August earnings call as the most likely moment for Rockstar to disclose any delays.
Final Thoughts
As the wait drags on and community speculation grows, May 15th stands out as the next big milestone for GTA 6 news. Whether Rockstar finally shows more of the most anticipated game of the decade—or delivers disappointing delay news—rest assured we’ll be covering it all right here.
Stay tuned for updates as we approach the earnings call and potential turning point in the GTA 6 news drought.
