There have been several anticipated game releases but Grand Theft Auto VI might easily overshadow them. This is a game installment fans have been waiting years to receive. Rockstar Games has been chipping away at the game project and it would have been underwraps for a rather long time until the breach. If you recall, a series of leaks caused gameplay footage and details of the game to emerge online. But it wouldn’t be until the end of last year when Grand Theft Auto VI was finally showcased to the world. 

Grand Theft Auto 6 looks set to be released after March 2025, based on publisher Take-Two’s latest earnings guidance.

Lawrence “Florida Joker” Sullivan has once again put out a message to Rockstar Games over the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6, but he seems to be dropping his threats of legal action. Sullivan’s mugshot went viral in 2017 due to his facial tattoos baring a resemblance to The Joker of DC Comics fame, and he would gain newfound infamy shortly after Rockstar released the first trailer for the long-awaited Grand Theft Auto 6 back in December. Included in this trailer was a brief shot of a similarly tattooed criminal being taken to court, and Sullivan quickly accused Rockstar of stealing his look.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is set to release some time in 2025, with developer Rockstar Games announcing the much-awaited title via a trailer late last year. The GTA 6 trailer, which has 174 million views on YouTube at the time of writing, came out December 5, showing off shiny visuals, a dense and detailed Vice City, and a Tom Petty song that has since experienced a 37,000 percent increase in its Spotify streams. But hours before Rockstar was forced to actually put out the trailer, it leaked on the Internet. Now, the CEO of Rockstar owner Take-Two has said that the leak was “disappointing.”

Alongside the company’s latest earnings report, Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick has been reflecting on the effects of the recent Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer leak.

Take-Two’s CEO Strauss Zelnick has recently commented on the GTA 6 trailer leak, revealing that it was a disappointing event, but it did not hurt the development team. Grand Theft Auto 6 is one of the most eagerly awaited games in the world right now, and this is the first time the CEO has publicly revealed his thoughts about the leak.

GTA 6 release date: 2023 was a great year for Grand Theft Auto (GTA) fans as the Rockstar Games finally showed the first glimpse at GTA 6, the highly anticipated sequel to GTA 5. But even before the launch, the game has already started shattering records. The GTA 6 trailer broke the record for most views in the initial 24-hour period for a non-music video, overtaking the previous record of YouTuber Mr Beast. It has only added fuel to the fire and speculations about the various elements of the game are surfacing rapidly. In the midst of all this, a report suggests that GTA 6 could arrive in early 2025!

The highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto IV has set the gaming world abuzz with its recent trailer, providing a glimpse into the chaos of Vice City and introducing two protagonists, Jason and Lucia. While the excitement around GTA 6 launch is palpable, the narrative details of the game remain shrouded in mystery, giving rise to numerous theories that attempt to decipher the storyline.

In the electrifying build-up to the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, eager fans are scouring every frame of the GTA 6 trailer for potential clues and connections to the iconic Vice City. Given the game's setting, fans are especially curious about any references to Tommy Vercetti, the legendary character from GTA: Vice City. While Rockstar has yet to confirm anything officially, a building spotted in the trailer has ignited a new wave of speculation among the GTA community.

Some eagle-eyed fans think they saw Tommy Vercetti’s island mansion in the Grand Theft Auto 6 reveal trailer. Even before Rockstar officially gave players a look at Grand Theft Auto 6, there were many rumors that the next entry in the infamous open-world crime series would return to Vice City, which serves as the GTA universe’s version of Miami. Grand Theft Auto 6 will take players to Leonida, the Florida-inspired state that Vice City is located in, and sure enough, an alternate universe version of the troubled town could be seen in the game’s trailer.

Netflix‘s mobile download numbers have reportedly risen drastically thanks to the addition of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition to the service.

A recent report reveals that Netflix Games saw major growth throughout the 2023 fiscal year, bolstered by the high-profile launch of the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy on the streaming service. The popular streaming platform has heavily pushed its gaming side since first launching Netflix Games in 2021, adding high-profile franchises like Dead Cells and Tomb Raider to the service.
