This clarification contradicts the rumors that circulated last week regarding a possible delay of the game to 2026.

Players should keep in mind that while the confirmation provides positive news, it does not guarantee a 2025 release, as circumstances may change between now and fall 2025. However, fans can take comfort in the fact that GTA 6 is expected to arrive sooner rather than later.
