Overview

• At a Sept. 18 virtual shareholder meeting, Take-Two told investors the game remains scheduled for May 26, 2026.
• CEO Strauss Zelnick said Grand Theft Auto VI anchors Fiscal 2027 plans to reach record net bookings and establish a higher profitability baseline.
• Rockstar delayed the title to 2026 in May 2025, citing the need for extra time to deliver the expected level of quality.
• Speculation about another slip persists, including Tom Henderson’s August view that an October 2026 launch is possible, which he described as personal opinion rather than confirmed information.
• Take-Two said Rockstar will share further details, and a recent Rockstar job listing briefly used the term “Grand Theft Auto 6” and described it as “the largest game launch in history” before that wording was removed.
