Sony probably wasn't count with GTA delays.

 

[Xbox 360 slim]

GTA 6 is a tech demo ATP

 

[Tokio Blues]

Hope not, its my most anticipated game from this generation. I've never been so hyped since HL2. It will be really, like the next next gen thing,

 

[TVexperto]

I dont think they will announce it this earnings, probably the one after that

 

[Tobimacoss]

Yep, It will be delayed. GTA has always been an October powerhouse release before the holidays.

Right before Magnus, Xbox 25th anniversary and the Game Awards. Let's see if MS can time their hardware launch, it would be perfect game to showcase Magnus.

 

[saintjules]

Speculation for now since he doesn't have enough to confirm it in an actual report.

But I hope he's wrong and Rockstar hits their target.

 

[AGRacing]

OH F OFF Rockstar. Who was the lunatic who thought it was going to be good to go in 2024!?

[Evil Calvin]

OH F OFF Rockstar. Who was the lunatic who thought it was going to be good to go in 2024!?

Probably Chris Roberts of Star Citizen

 

[Lucifers Beard]

First delay is until mid spring and the real release is October. This happened with the last few games they released as far as I remember.

 

[Polygonal_Sprite]

For some reason I thought it was out next September so… meh.

Both GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption released during Spring so there's precedent.
Basically Rockstar will release the game whenever they think it's ready, everything else is speculation.

It will break all kinds of sales records regardless of when it releases.

 

[Poppinfresh]

In other news, water is wet...

I wouldn't even be surprised to see it slip to 2027

 

[Hookshot]

How long until the people born on 5's release date will be 18 and old enough to play 6?

 

[Flabagast]

its the case for every rockstar game. First delay 6 months past initial date, second delay six additional months after.

Happened with every one of their latest releases. It will be fall 2026, Those thinking otherwise are thus stupid.

 

[bighugeguns]

Tom's normally good with this insider stuff, damn, good luck to anyone else releasing remotely close to this thing…

 

[owandeseis]

Hope so, sold my Take Two's stock recently, free money if it's true and i jump back in after the announcement.

Since i don't care much about this game, at least i will help me fund other games purchases lol

 

[DevonExplorer]

He doesn't say that in the clip?

 

[Arsic]

October 2027. SP only.

 

[saintjules]

He doesn't say that in the clip?

In the first clip at around 0:21. He says he thinks the delay is October.

 

[Stafford]

I've been saying this ever since they announced the May release, that it's always good to take into account another delay. Good thing there is so much to play as it is, so if it gets delayed, it's really whatever to me.

 

[Cyborg]

So we will have iphone 18 before GTA6. That is 13 iphones.....

 

[Tobimacoss]

How long until the people born on 5's release date will be 18 and old enough to play 6?

They'll be 13 and still be getting the game for Xmas present.

 

[ValiantInstance]

I wonder the extent to which the expectation that Rockstar will delay their games actually contributes to the delays. They know they can get away with jerking us off over and over because people expect them to.

 

[Stafford]

October 2027. SP only.

SP only? As if Take Two would ignore the absolutely insane cash cow that is GTA Online.

 

[viveks86]

Apology trailer incoming in November, then?

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Sony probably wasn't count with GTA delays.

Sony knows this much better than all of us.

 

[Stafford]

Delays are whatever, I just wish they didn't announce this thing so ridiculously early.

The way Fallout 4 was announced and released like four months later, Oblivion Remake, and several other games........ that's the way!

 

[Arsic]

SP only? As if Take Two would ignore the absolutely insane cash cow that is GTA Online.

GTA online to come later. Sold separately.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

It doesn't matter when it comes out, it'll sell the same regardless. Who honestly cares between May or October, September, August, whatever

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

SP only? As if Take Two would ignore the absolutely insane cash cow that is GTA Online.

This. Main game is SP that people expect, followed by GTA Online integration.

 

[Ribi]

Scope creep

 

[amigastar]

A Delay would suck, but what can you do.

 

[Fake]

I sure Playstation wasn't expecting that, right?

 

[Luipadre]

I believe it too. It was always going to be an october title

 

[PurePlatinum]

Pretty obvious I think

 

[Stafford]

Has it happened before with either GTA or RDR that a specific date was announced and then still delayed?

 

[Kenpachii]

Just delay it until next gen.

 

[LordCBH]

Shut the fuck up, Tom.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Yeah, no shit!

 

[Scrawnton]

I believe it.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

 

[DirtInUrEye]

So, only a year on release before the upgraded next gen version, assuming PS6 is 2027. That doesn't sound like that long a time for Rockstar to be ringing up tills with the base release.

 

[Just_one]

October 2027. SP only.

fuck MP games

 

[Judge Magister]

Might as well wait for PS6 launch version.

 

[Ashamam]

Right before Magnus, Xbox 25th anniversary and the Game Awards. Let's see if MS can time their hardware launch, it would be perfect game to showcase Magnus

Tricky, first Magnus is likely 6 months or more past this, and second, it's not going to be trivial to bring it to Magnus if they have built it for the X|S. Then there is the fact that R* target install bases, I cant see them breaking their backs to support someone else's launch. (Incl. PS6.)

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Has it happened before with either GTA or RDR that a specific date was announced and then still delayed?

RDR2 had 2 delays. Originally was going to be released fall of 2017 and ended up releasing October 2018. And that happened with 2 delays as well.

 

[mckmas8808]

Yep, It will be delayed. GTA has always been an October powerhouse release before the holidays.

Is Magnus going to cost $900?
