Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed to November 2026, marking a 13-year gap since GTA V. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick attributes the delay to Rockstar's pursuit of perfection, emphasizing the studio's culture of performance and excellence. The announcement came alongside strong Q2 financial results, with Take-Two recording $1.96 billion in net bookings. GTA V continues to perform well with over 220 million lifetime sales, and the company expects GTA VI to deliver record-breaking results when it launches.

Take Two CEO: Rockstar chasing 'perfection' with GTA VI

Again, how many times do I have to repeat, that GTA VI is the game of the next 10+ years. If you fuck this one up, we are stuck with a game, that is already 10+ years old. So, of course, they need all the time they can get, to make it as best as possible, to not fuck it up.
This will be one of the most popular and most played games, ever.

I hope they realize that the beauty of GTA is through its imperfections.
