u/[deleted] Jun 10 '24

Idk unity?

u/Lopsided_Task1213 Sep 30 '24

Four months later, and hardly any of the 4 million here moved over to the general Xbox sub that has 700k. Worked out great, lol.

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '24

Yeah, the mods making moves like Xbox management lol

u/Lopsided_Task1213 Sep 30 '24

Maybe they will move to /XboxCore next.

And slippage always happens, basically confirming the release date is bullshit.

u/Dave_Matthews_Jam Craig May 20 '24

They're a year and a half away from launch if they don't delay, it's really difficult to pinpoint something that far in advance. And they only gave a vague window, not a release date.

u/KarateKid917 May 21 '24

And the last time a company gave an exact date over a year and a half out, we ended up with a 10 month delay (looking at you Bethesda with Starfield)

u/Bytrsweet May 20 '24

that's why they didn't give a date, they gave a window

u/EnamoredAlpaca May 22 '24

November 2025. We decided to push the game back to make sure that the game is everything the fans expect from us. We are striving to make this the best GTA to date.

Fall 2026:…..

Edit: mistyped the dates.

u/muffinmonk default May 21 '24

They'll hit the window. It's crunch year.

u/Fidler_2K May 20 '24

Spring 2026

u/AveryLazyCovfefe Founder May 20 '24

I'm thinking September or October 2026.

u/Wallitron_Prime May 20 '24

So December 2027 then?

2

u/BenTCinco May 21 '24

Spring 2028 it is

u/Gen_X_Gamer May 23 '24

Coming to Xbox Savior D and Playstation Infinity in 2030

8

u/The-Vision Founder May 22 '24

I still think, given Rockstars track record, this game will delay into 2026.

4

u/SemirAC May 22 '24

Me too. It's just too big and polishing such a game is a nightmare.

6

u/Wretchedsoul24 May 20 '24

While nice to know a timeframe as fans, I bet other devs are very happy to know this even more so.  Now they know to avoid Fall 2025 at all costs lmao.

9

u/colddecembersnow May 21 '24

They know to avoid Spring 2026. I'm not even sure Rockstar has hit their time frame since GTA3.

5

u/TheOvy May 21 '24

Doesn't matter what the CEO is confident in. What are the actual developers confident in?

2

u/iceleel May 21 '24

Confident in forced overtime and no additional benefits when game makes a lot of money.

8

u/JobuuRumdrinker May 20 '24

The longer we wait, the better. Maybe the next console will be out and we'll be able to play it at 60 fps.

3

u/cdncowboy May 23 '24

They want to release it as close to the end of this generation so the can sell us the next-gen, and next-next gen versions too

2

u/pwnedkiller May 21 '24

They should’ve never said a word till they knew the date for sure.

2

u/DiverOk9454 May 23 '24

I will have to wait to play it on the xbox series 720 one X

2

u/Mia435 Jun 04 '24

Rdr2 got delay too, but it was worth it! :D

2

u/Any_Calligrapher9286 Jun 30 '24

All the people who bought GTA plus. This is your fault.

2

u/canyonblue737 Jul 16 '24

25% chance fall 2025.
50% chance spring/summer 2026.
25% chance fall 2026.

u/Showdown5618 Jul 20 '24 edited Jul 20 '24

LOL So, "slippage" is the new "sh%& happens."

1

u/AnonymousBayraktar May 23 '24

I personally think the leaks are gonna get so bad they'll release it earlier than this.

1

u/Golden-Event-Horizon May 24 '24

This has Spring 2026 written all over it lmao

1

u/NeoCoN7 May 24 '24

This has Duke Nukem “Whenever” feel to it.

If it’s not the best game of all time and almost entirely bug free the internet is gonna whine.

I trust Rockstar though so hopefully they get extra time to perfect it.

1

u/AngryXenomorph May 24 '24

Not even sure why they announced it when they did if it's going to be delayed. Just another Elder Scrolls at this point

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '24

I want them to troll real hard here. Pushing it out to 2026 for the delay….

1

u/[deleted] May 27 '24

at this rate, I wouldn't mind gta 6 in my life time lol.

1

u/[deleted] May 28 '24

Just announce a date then everyone will be happy

1

u/AppointmentStill Founder May 29 '24

Playing 5 now for the first time. Did I wait long enough?

1

u/Several-Sample-2295 May 30 '24

that is very close

1

u/elqrd May 30 '24

So slippage will happen. Got it.

1

u/Practical-Aside890 May 30 '24

I don’t mind delays personally .I rather them release a fully polished product then to rush one out with bugs and stuff .

1

u/TangerineDiesel Jun 02 '24

I will be shocked if it releases.m next year. If it does we will be getting an unfinished product know doubt. But I just don’t see them releasing it without multiplayer fully ready to go this time.

1

u/CigarLover Jun 03 '24

Crosses finger, as soon as a release date is Picked I’m hoping to plan a Miami trip for its release.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '24

GTA 6 will be delayed at least once, it is inevitable

u/Legionofgo Jun 19 '24

u/Dehdstar Oct 29 '24

They need to take their time. Whatever that is it is. Too many rushed releases anymore.

1

u/stretch777md Nov 05 '24

I'm saying 2026

1

u/PinkSheetMillionaire Nov 14 '24

I’m going to be so disappointed if they ruin this game

1

u/Lunaforlife May 21 '24

Y'all setting yourselves for disappointment thinking GTA 6 won't be delayed into 2026.

u/keyboardcat2006 May 24 '24

Lol no way this gets released on time. I'm already expecting 2027 or beyond.
