Though we have plenty of leaks regarding the GTA 6, not many gave us a reliable date on when it could launch.
But here, we consolidate all the reliable stuff to point at one specific date, where you can expect the official launch of GTA 6. But again, it’s just an estimate from all the data we have, so take it with a pinch of salt.
Probable GTA 6 Launch Date
From enough leaks, we’ve already known that the upcoming GTA 6 is based on the GTA Vice City. So in terms of gaming and stuff inside it, expect it to have some crucial elements from the grand Vice City.
As for the launch date, we expect it to be unveiled in the months of October or November next year. Why? We’ll explain that in a bit. Before that, you better see the below table, made by Beebom;
Title | Release Date |
---|---|
Grand Theft Auto III | October 22, 2001 |
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City | October 29, 2002 |
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas | October 26, 2004 |
Grand Theft Auto IV | April 29, 2008 |
GTA IV PC | December 2, 2008 |
Grand Theft Auto V | September 17, 2013 |
GTA V PC | November 18, 2014 |
Red Dead Redemption 2 | October 26, 2018 |
RDR 2 PC | November 5, 2019 |
GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition | November 11, 2021 |
As you can see, all the GTA launches (except for GTA 4) from its maker Rockstar Games, came in the second half of years – mostly in the months of October or November. More deeply, we have four titles coming in the last two weeks of October and three of them in November.
This brings us under the assumption that GTA 6 can be coming in either October or November too. This is backed by the tips that came from Chris Klippel, a popular GTA leaker, who in April this year stated that Rockstar won’t launch GTA 6 before the last months of 2024.
Also, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier made similar claims that you can see GTA 6 only in late 2024 or early 2025. And for dates, all the GTA titles launched till now (including the GTA Vice City) were on Tuesdays. So Rockstar may follow this suite now too, for the GTA 6 launch.
More specifically, it could be October 29, 2024, considering that makes up the 22nd anniversary of GTA Vice City and also the Tuesday! So if Rockstar truly wants to pay tribute to that milestone, it could most probably launch the next GTA title – GTA 6 on October 29, 2024.
