Grand Theft Auto VI has officially been delayed out of 2025, with Rockstar Games announcing the upcoming and highly anticipated game will be released on May 26, 2026. Devolver Digital, which back in March declared they would release a game on the same day as GTA 6 no matter the release date, has re-committed to the bit–though we still don’t know what game that will be of if this is all one big joke.
After Rockstar announced the delay, Devolver Digital posted on its X account acknowledging both the delay and its dedication to directly competing with Rockstar on launch day. “You can’t escape us,” the post reads. “May 26, 2026 it is, then.” The specific game in question, if there is one, has not yet been confirmed by Devolver.
Despite the delay of whatever game the company plans to launch against GTA 6, Devolver Digital has a busy 2025 ahead of it. The publisher has already launched Look Outside, Gorn 2, and Shotgun Cop Man so far, with Baby Steps, Skate Story, and Possessors still scheduled between now and the end of the year.
Rockstar Games’s parent company Take-Two Interactive, despite a slump in stock price after the announcement of the delay, also has a busy release schedule ahead of it. Civilization VII from Firaxis Games and WWE 2K25 from Visual Concepts have already seen release, with Mafia: The Old Country, Borderlands 4, and NBA 2K26 still to come before 2026 begins.
