November 19. You’re so distant, but so shut, in comparison with how lengthy the look ahead to Grand Theft Auto 6 has truly been.
That’s the present date for GTA 6’s launch, for now. The sport may finally be delayed once more (everybody pray that it doesn’t occur), however the hope is that we’ll be taking part in the subsequent GTA recreation quickly after over a decade of ready.
Between from time to time, we now have on a regular basis on the planet to debate the upcoming mega-hit ready to occur, together with some latest tidbits which were some extent of dialogue on-line whereas we look ahead to a brand new trailer or gameplay reveal.
Newest GTA 6 rumors and information
Right here’s the newest items of information we’ve gotten, or that has been reported, about GTA 6. With the sport now as a result of launch (at the moment) in lower than 10 months, all eyes and ears within the business are perked up and ready for extra.
No bodily version?
One of many newest rumors comes from a report by Polish web site PPE, and it means thatGTA 6 gained’t launch with any bodily disc variations of the sport, and that will probably be a digital-only title, not less than at first.
The report states that that is primarily as a result of Rockstar Video games desirous to keep away from leaks at any price, and with bodily editions of video games generally showing and arriving in avid gamers’ fingers earlier than the launch date, sticking with a digital-only launch would mitigate this downside.
That is unconfirmed data for now, and whereas it could be a bummer for these hoping for a cool collector’s version of the sport, I feel this is sensible. GTA 6 has already gone via fairly sufficient leaks up till now.
It’s assumed {that a} bodily launch would come finally, not less than a while after the launch window has come and gone. Possibly in 2027.
Followers faked IDs and flew drones to spy on Rockstar
In the identical vein because the rumor above, YouTuber KiwiTalkz posted on X/Twitter explaining why they assume the sport could forego a bodily launch at launch.
“Sadly, there are a selection of loopy Rockstar followers that may 100% break into retail shops and manufacturing amenities to steal discs and folks on the within would leak it as effectively,” they mentioned. “I’ve heard tales from Rockstar devs over time of nutty followers attempting to get into their buildings to get any data they’ll from faking IDs to flying drones above home windows to attempt to get pictures/video.”
And yeah, after the entire saga of a teen breaking into Rockstar’s servers resulting in the large pre-alpha leak years in the past, I don’t blame Rockstar in any respect for attempting something it might to stop extra of the sport from popping out earlier than launch. I imply, drones? Pretend IDs? Critically, folks?!
Rockstar devs fired over earlier leaks
A spherical of firings at GTA 6 developer Rockstar this previous November may very well be associated to a separate spherical of leaks. Courtroom filings could have not directly confirmed a bunch of leaks posted on social media, as Rockstar confirmed {that a} Lincoln, UK worker was fired in April 2025. The corporate alleges that they shared confidential data in regards to the recreation with somebody who then posted their findings on social media.
Because of the firing and the social media posts, quite a lot of leaked particulars will be inferred to be considerably professional, together with the sport having a chapter-based format like Purple Useless Redemption 2, the flexibility to swap between co-protagonists Jason and Lucia at any time, and a number of different story particulars.
GTA 6 – 100 bucks?
The dialogue round GTA 6’s worth level remains to be ongoing, with some fearing that the sport could price $100 or extra at launch. Trade insiders say it’s potential, however I’m nonetheless skeptical. Final 12 months, Nintendo made the bounce to the $79.99 worth for its video games, so I feel that’s potential.
Nevertheless, I wouldn’t be shocked to see the sport at the next worth than that. It’s rumored that the event of GTA 6 has price upwards of $2 billion, and that cash must be recouped. I feel that can nonetheless occur, a number of instances over, however
Would you be keen to pay $100 for GTA 6? I do know it’d be a troublesome promote for a lot of, however it might additionally not deter most avid gamers from choosing it up. That is probably the largest leisure launch of our lifetime, and it’s going to be the sport that everybody is taking part in and speaking about as soon as it drops. Folks pays.
I simply hope we get to pay for it (and play it) sooner somewhat than later, as a result of the wait is killing me.
