New reports suggest that there is no more stopping "Grand Theft Auto VI" from releasing in May 2026, the latest schedule that the company confirmed for the highly anticipated game's arrival.

There was a recent update discovered from Rockstar Games, and according to reports, this shared hints that the game is set for its latest release date timeline.

It took a long time for Rockstar Games to develop its next-generation game that takes users back to Vice City. Unfortunately, the company delayed the game's release date.

'GTA VI' Update Hints No More Delays for Release

ComicBook Gaming shared a new report that spotted a recent post by Rockstar Games on its careers website that shows that the company is looking to fill global marketing positions for the upcoming "Grand Theft Auto VI" game.

The hint comes in the form of 12-month contracts being offered to potential applicants. This means that Rockstar Games only needs these marketing staffers to work for the company until next summer, suggesting that the short-term employment is only meant to focus on promoting its upcoming sequel.

The game is still set for a May 26, 2026, release date, and based on the job listings, Rockstar Games would only market the around the time that it will be globally available and several months after that. The position's contract timeline suggests that the studio is committed to the May 2026 timeline, and it is not changing anytime soon.

Rockstar Games: 'GTA VI' for May 2026

There is still no official word from Rockstar Games or any aggressive marketing on their end regarding the anticipated sequel, so it means that the game is following its planned release schedule.

"Grand Theft Auto VI" has been delayed because of its development and the need to finalize more elements of the game as it was initially set for a Fall 2025 release. This already caused different developers and game makers to either go ahead or postpone their releases to make way for a title as large as "GTA VI," but they had the rug pulled under them when Rockstar announced its delay.

The world already awaits "GTA VI" and its promised May 2026 release date, giving players the new story featuring the star-crossed lovers and all that Vice City has to offer.
