Story Highlights
  • Reports point to GTA 6 launching somewhere in January or February of 2025.
  • This information comes from an insider who accurately leaked details about the first trailer.
  • The release window also supports recent job listings that hinted at an early 2025 launch.

GTA 6 is dubbed the most important release in the industry, and it can’t come soon enough. Expected to deliver an open world several times larger than its predecessor, cutting-edge visuals, and more, it is easy to see why audiences are so excited.

According to a report, the wait might be nearly over since GTA 6 will be released in Q1 2025.

Why it matters: Such leaks hint that Rockstar Games will conduct extensive marketing this year to build further anticipation.

The leak comes from an insider who accurately revealed the contents of Rockstar’s first GTA 6 trailer. Among other details, the leaker pointed to the Karen-like woman with two hammers, the crocodile scene, and more.

In the same post, he stated that GTA 6 would be launched in January or February 2025. This release date is now looking to be more legitimate as more details pour in.

We know from reliable sources that GTA 6 is entering the final stretch of development. Moreover, we spotted a limited-time job listing recently that hinted at an early 2025 release.

This means the game will take a different direction from GTA 5, which launched around the holiday season. However, GTA 4 launched in the early summer, so Rockstar Games has never been one to refrain from breaking existing trends.

While most big releases are planned for the holidays to gain more traction, Grand Theft Auto does not need to target a specific release window. GTA 6 is set to be a major product regardless of its release date.

Major games like Game of the Year winner Elden Ring, last year’s best-seller Hogwarts Legacy, and more were also released during the first quarter. Therefore, a similar window could do wonders for Rockstar Games.

If a January or February release is inevitable, another trailer could be coming sooner than expected.

It also means that GTA 6 is less than a full year away, making the prospect of this release even more exciting. Amid this excitement, gaming giants like Sony are preparing new consoles before the release.
