Will GTA 6 be delayed again?
There's no sign of another delay. GTA 6 slipped twice — from Fall 2025 to May 26, 2026, then to November 19, 2026 — but throughout 2026 Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has repeatedly said the date holds and that marketing begins in summer 2026, which would be unusual if another slip were coming. Nothing is guaranteed until launch, but every official signal currently points to November 19, 2026.
