The wait for Grand Theft Auto VI could get even longer if recent comments from a former Rockstar Games developer prove accurate. Although GTA 6 is currently scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, ex-Rockstar animator Mike York says he "would not be shocked" if the game were delayed again by as much as six months.
"They'll push it six more months if they have to," York was quoted as saying by Insider Saga.
York, however, stressed that he no longer works at Rockstar Games and has no insider knowledge about the game's current development. His comments are based on his past experience at the studio, where major releases were delayed whenever developers felt more time was needed to deliver a polished product.
