Grand Theft Auto 6 is set to launch in 2025, marking what could easily be the biggest release not just of the year, but possibly the entire decade.

The franchise has become a juggernaut in the gaming world, with GTA 5 still enjoying immense popularity 11 years after its debut, largely thanks to its thriving online component. Anticipation for the sequel is at an all-time high, captivating not only players but also investors eagerly awaiting its financial success.

During a recent financial results call, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick exuded confidence in the upcoming release, emphasizing the company’s dedication to perfection. “We’re committed to delivering excellence, ensuring every aspect of the game is finely tuned before its launch,” stated Zelnick, highlighting the meticulous attention to detail that defines their approach.

In response to inquiries about sales projections, Zelnick acknowledged the heightened anticipation surrounding GTA 6 compared to its predecessor. However, he refrained from making specific predictions, recognizing the significant impact GTA 5 has already achieved in the market.

Addressing the leak of GTA 6 footage prior to the official trailer release, Zelnick expressed disappointment while also acknowledging the excitement generated by the genuine trailer launch. Despite setbacks, Zelnick remained optimistic about the game’s prospects.

Beyond the financial call, Zelnick underscored the franchise’s remarkable momentum, citing the record-breaking debut of the game’s trailer on YouTube and its successful partnership with Netflix to bring the GTA Trilogy to a wider audience.

While the release of GTA 6 is eagerly awaited in 2025, details about a potential PC launch remain undisclosed. In the meantime, fans can revel in the excitement generated by the captivating trailer and indulge in speculation about what awaits in Vice City.
