Internet delays GTA 6 to 2026: “At least give us screenshots”

Perhaps it is inevitable: Rockstar postpones GTA 6 to May 2026. Confirmed from an unceremonious statement that does not launch the platform or any new trailer. There are not even new screenshots for this news.

Of course, fans of Rockstar games have been here all the time. The legendary developers have already formed forms when delaying the game, so the delay to GTA 6 may not be surprising. Still, these fans were filled with a mix of disappointment, relief and realizing that the internet is now ready for 12 months of rampantism, usually making ridiculous speculation about everything about GTA 6.

this GTA 6 subredditThis is the source of many crazy conspiracy theories surrounding the game, trailer, and when it might come out, it's the explosion after the news.

“FFS, fuck Rockstar, at least give us screenshots, which reflects that Rockstar failed to mitigate the hit of GTA 6 delays without any fresh gameplay,” said Mynameistofuog.

“At least give us a screenshot, which is ridiculous even for r*,” ABVK0 added. “Is 1.5 years of silence just to give up delayed news and not show us the game crumbs? ”

“At least we have a date right now, and if that means the game will be good, I don't mind the delay.”

“This is the Rockstar brother. What are you expecting? And, I really doubt it will be released on May 26 and they will delay more.”

There is also speculation that Rockstar may release GTA 6 on PCs with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, and now the game has been delayed until 2026. “I hope this means that the PC version is in 2026, not 2027 as well,” Kiwibom said.

Velkoadmiral predicts: “2026 console release, 2027 PC version, new console release in 2028.”

IGN's own commenters also have a lot to say about GTA 6 latency, so far, user BSideleau has slammed the console's generation in a stern post:

“No one is surprised. This will be the last game for this generation. It's a disappointing one. I've never been more frustrated than Microsoft and Sony. These two consoles have 0.5 more updates than the previous generation's updates, but they expect us to pay more for them.

There is also a lot of discussion about the cost of the GTA 6. With some games from Nintendo and Microsoft reaching $80, fans support themselves with $80 GTA 6. Some people think that if new GTAs are included online, it may cost a higher price, perhaps reaching $100.

“We look forward to sharing more information with you,” Rockstar said in a statement. Does this mean that the trailer 2 is not far away? Of course fans hope so.

Not only does GTA 6 expects to be the biggest entertainment launch of all time, but fans expect it to be one of the greatest games of all time. Under tremendous pressure, developers of Rockstar and parent company Take-Two are eager to ensure that the game is launched at the highest quality level. With that in mind, this feeling of delay always happens.
