![]() ![]() ![]() Considering the Grand Theft Auto series' profitability, it seems pretty likely that Take-Two is factoring in GTA 6's launch during the fiscal year. The company said it was forecasting $8 billion in net bookings for fiscal 2025, which runs Apto March 31, 2025.īased on these numbers and enthusiastic commentary from Take-Two's management, it seems likely that the company is anticipating a major release that will deliver a massive level of success. After all, it's not uncommon for game announcements to masquerade as recruiting tools.īut perhaps the strongest indication that GTA 6 could launch in 2024 came just this month during parent company Take-Two's latest earnings announcement. When Rockstar announced GTA 6 in February 2022, many assumed it was part of a recruiting effort. A similar number of days between announcement and release would put GTA 6's release sometime around Spring 2024. Assuming Rockstar sticks to a somewhat-similar schedule between announcement and release (and that is no certainty!), a 2024 release for GTA 6 does match up. It's now been more than 450 days since GTA 6 was announced, or about 15 months. Rockstar's blog post referred to the project as the "next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series." The company did not say it would be called GTA 6, but confirmed at the time that the project was "well underway" at the time. GTA 6, meanwhile, was confirmed on February 8, 2022. So there was a total of 693 days-or 1 year, 10 months, and 23 days-between announcement and release. GTA V was announced on Octoand the game finally released on September 17, 2013. So just because this is how it all played out for GTA V-and some 10+ years ago, too-that doesn't mean Rockstar will follow a similar playbook with Grand Theft Auto 6. When did Rockstar first reveal the game? When was the first trailer? How much time was there between announcement and launch? Rockstar is known to be quiet and coy until it's ready to share news. There are still plenty of unknowns, but with the game's release seemingly coming up at least in the relatively near future, we're looking back at Grand Theft Auto V's own announcement schedule. Grand Theft Auto 6 is in the news again, with the latest reports suggesting the game could launch as soon as 2024. ![]()
