In a move that has sent shockwaves through basements and mom’s Wi-Fi networks everywhere, Rockstar announced today that Grand Theft Auto VI will now hit consoles on November 19, 2026. Take-Two framed the delay as a generous gift to gamers, claiming the extra time is “to finish the game with the high level of polish players expect and deserve.”
Industry analysts suggest this means players now have nearly five more years to practice their bank heists, carjacking skills, and overly elaborate crime sprees… in real life. Meanwhile, fans are reportedly stockpiling energy drinks, throwing their wallets into a time capsule, and questioning every life choice leading up to this moment.
“Rockstar has our full support,” Take-Two reassured investors, “and we are confident they will deliver an unrivalled blockbuster entertainment experience.” Translation: brace yourself for even more explosions, chaos, and morally questionable missions… eventually.
The delay leaves gamers to ponder: will they survive the hype, or just live in GTA memes until 2026?
