"An online retail store has listed the release date for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI, and the release date has now been removed.

The online retailer is a Spanish store called XUruguay, which listed Grand Theft Auto 6's release for September 17, 2025. As you can probably imagine, gamers were quick to dissect the legitimacy of this "leak," with some suggesting it could be real, considering September lines up with Rockstar and publisher Take-Two Interactive's confirmed release window of Fall 2025.

Further conversation was sparked when the online retailer promptly removed the date from its website, and when queried about how it obtained the release date,e the retailer said it works "directly with PlayStation, they let us know which products we can sell and on what dates."

Do with this info what you will.

 

[Tokio Blues]

We will know on 6th febreruary in the next earning calls.

 

[R3TRO]

Might have to get a Pro for this.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I could see that being a placeholder

Doubt it makes it but we shall see, hope it makes it this year yet

Must admit I thought the same, perhaps they just looked up 5's release date and put that in as a placeholder.

 

[SJRB]

Yeah sure, why not.

It has to happen sometime, right?

..right?

 

[AtomicStarving]

It's january 2025, no marketing... nothing... for a game this big... THIS GAME ARE NOT COMING THIS YEAR FAM.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

GTA V dropped September didn't it? I could believe it.

 

[March Climber]

If 335 people each guess a different day this year, one of those people will be right.

 

[Certinty]

GTA V was released on the 17th Sep 2013.

So maybe they just copied that template over with a change of year.

 

[LordOcidax]

 

[Elios83]

Release dates from retailers are *always* just placeholders until confirmed.

 

[Hookshot]

So no trailer until August

 

[Roman Empire]

I'm intrigued by the file size of GTA6. I bet 200GB+

 

[nial]

On a Wednesday? Yeah...

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I will fuck with your logic

March 17th 2026

Now what?

 

[March Climber]

I will fuck with your logic

March 17th 2026

Now what?

Put me down for October 10, 2025.

Call of Duty will probably take that date first though, they love dates that look cool in militaristic text.

 

[Area61]

Rockstar release at least 3-4 trailer before release. This seems too soon TBH with only 1 trailer released so far.

 

[thatJohann]

There's no way GTAVI comes out this year, probably a summer 2026 release.

 

[FrankWza]

Maybe a super bowl spot is coming?

And automatically become a verified leaker and can work on gaming podcasts.

 

[PlayedStation]

Lol it killed me how a lot of people were wrong about the Switch's reveal because they thought they knew Nintendo's strategy. History seems to be repeating itself.

 

[Gonzito]

Please be alive until then papi Gonzito

 

[Muffdraul]

It was a typo, they meant Sept 17 2026.

 

[Xtib81]

No chance. This game is not making it in 2025.

 

[Unknown?]

With For a and Halo coming to PS5 and GTA6 this year, Xbox is going to be crushed. Like barely even 3 million worldwide for the whole year.

 

[FoxMcChief]

I see that Trump executive order is doing its job.

 

[Tiamat2san]

For my birthday if true, Nice!

 

[FoxMcChief]

Maybe a super bowl spot is coming?

I don’t see Rockstar needing to pay SB ad money to push the game. All they need is a tweet.

 

[MMaRsu]

There's no way GTAVI comes out this year, probably a summer 2026 release.

Because??? Based on what lmao. Summer?

 

[bundylove]

Gta5 also released in september.

 

[Perrott]

That's literally the same day and month as GTA V... I doubt it.

 

[Represent.]

Predicted this last year, so its true (Im always right)

 

[salva]

I think the year is wrong should be 17 Sept 2026

 

[nial]

Put me down for October 10, 2025.

September 26, 2025.

 

[theStartupSound]

With an epic release like that … I don’t think that anyone outside of Rockstar and Take Two knows what the currently planned release date is. Also not Sony and surely not some Spanish retailer.

 

[balls of snow]

Delay written all over it.
Just cant see a gta 6 in 2025.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Might have to get a Pro for this.

Pretty much the reason why I got one

 

[lockdown2222]

I think the year is wrong should be 17 Sept 2027

FTFY

 

[DeepEnigma]

Did it also say $99?

 

[saintjules]

[saintjules]

If you save $15/mo. between now and September you'd be set.

Smarter not harder mentality is required.

 

[M.W.]

Might have to get a Pro for this.

Why? The CPU is still garbage and Rockstar games are CPU heavy. It'll be 30fps on the Pro too.

 

[saintjules]

Nothing has been confirmed to suggest it's 30fps on the Pro.

 

[M.W.]

Nothing has been confirmed to suggest it's 30fps on the Pro.

Nothing other than the minor CPU upgrade in the Pro. And other articles suggesting 30fps on consoles (inc the Pro).

I hope I'm wrong, but highly doubt it.

Money isn’t the issue.

Principal is.

 

[Rawbutt Jellybean]

If it's $100 I'm not buying it. They've been milking GTA Online for over a decade and are part of the reason gaming is so lame now. $70 is my max.

 

[saintjules]

Money isn’t the issue.

Principal is.

Eh, at this point I wouldn't be surprised. I'm more surprised at how low games cost for this long.

We will get to $100 games someday.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

17 September is on a Wednesday. If this is release date holds up there's going to be a shit load of people calling in sick on that day

 

[GymWolf]

One day before my birthday would be a megaton
