hermanphi said: "I know it will never happen but just imagine how crazy it would be if they say 'We ended up being more productive these past few months, we're changing plans and are now aiming to release GTA 6 in September'. God that would be so f****** funny."

comrade333 said: "That was obvious tbh."

BabylonianWeeb said: "I think it's pretty much confirmed that GTA 6 will be releasing this year with all big publishers avoiding November."

metalyger said: "It would be pretty f***** if they did push it back to like spring 2027, just because of how the industry has moved around releases to avoid GTA 6. No technical reason for a delay, just something to troll everyone with."
