As stated, Rockstar Games has yet to announce a fixed release date for the game but the IMDB GTA 6 news seems to have sparked numerous speculations. While some suggest the developer might roll out the game in October 2025, as they have done for several of their titles, others feel a September release is more likely.

However, most fans are sure Rockstar Games will target Fall 2025 to release GTA 6 since it marks the holiday season and is the best time to roll out a title of such stature. Several of their titles, including GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, and Red Dead Redemption 2 were released around this time. Hence, it won't be surprising if they decide to stick with this time frame.
