Rockstar Games is gearing up for the highly anticipated release of GTA 6, the next installment in the iconic Grand Theft Auto series. With the last game released in 2013 selling over 200 million copies, fans are eagerly awaiting the latest entry in the franchise.
The first trailer for GTA 6 was unveiled in December 2023, offering a glimpse into the game world. The trailer introduced two protagonists, Lucia and Jason, set in the fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida, and Vice City, based on Miami. The game is expected to feature a Bonnie and Clyde-style relationship between the main characters.
Notable in the trailer was the emphasis on social media, with parodies of viral clips and attention to detail. The release window for GTA 6 was initially set for 2025, later narrowed down to Autumn 2025.
While no second trailer or screenshots have been released, Rockstar briefly updated the GTA 6 website with image placeholders earlier in 2024. The game is confirmed to be playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, with no mention of availability on PC or older consoles.
Speculation arose around leaks, which were later confirmed by Rockstar but subsequently removed from online forums. The game is said to feature the largest map ever created by Rockstar, with the latest map from the Mapping Project updated to include Florida's panhandle.
Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, confirmed the game's release in Autumn 2025 during an earnings call. Despite a leaked IMDB listing suggesting an October 27, 2025 release date, this information was retracted.
As fans eagerly await further details on GTA 6, the gaming community is abuzz with anticipation for what promises to be a groundbreaking addition to the Grand Theft Auto series.
