Rockstar Games has officially confirmed that Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) will be released in autumn 2025, bringing long-awaited clarity to fans about the game's confirmed release date. This announcement, made during a recent earnings call by parent company Take-Two Interactive, comes as anticipation continues to build for one of the most highly anticipated games of the decade.

While fans have yet to see a new trailer or significant updates since the December 2023 reveal, excitement remains high. Speculation about the GTA 6 gameplay, leaks, and rumors of possible features continue to stir up buzz. One of the most anticipated events is the GTA 6 second trailer update, which fans hope will drop by late March or early April, following patterns seen with previous Rockstar Games releases.

In March 2025, GTA V received a free PC upgrade, and the GTA Online expansion titled "Oscar Guzman Flies Again" was released. These updates have fueled further speculation about when GTA 6's next major update will arrive. Rockstar Games has also reduced its Instagram posts to just 12, often a sign they are preparing for a major announcement.

As for GTA 6 gameplay leaks and rumors, fans have speculated about the game's open-world features, suggesting an environment brimming with wildlife, including alligators, similar to the ecosystem in Red Dead Redemption 2. Other rumors hint at new mechanics like hunting and foraging, though Rockstar has not confirmed these details. Additionally, there’s much speculation about the GTA 6 map and setting, with many wondering if it will expand upon or reinvent the familiar cities and regions seen in previous titles. Fans are also eager to learn more about the GTA 6 storyline and characters, hoping for fresh and engaging narratives in the next chapter of the iconic series.

In the meantime, Rockstar Games has started accepting GTA 6 pre-orders through select retailers, with a Malaysian store already taking bookings despite the official confirmation not being fully detailed. This has sparked excitement among fans who want to secure their copy of the game as soon as possible. However, Rockstar has yet to confirm official GTA 6 platforms and system requirements, leaving fans to wonder which consoles and PCs will be able to run the highly anticipated game.

Meanwhile, WWE star John Cena posted GTA 6’s official artwork on Instagram, sparking more theories about his potential involvement with the game. This further fueled the excitement surrounding the release and speculation about GTA 6 characters.

Rockstar has also recently acquired Video Games Deluxe, the studio responsible for mobile ports of GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition, in an effort to strengthen its lineup of upcoming releases, including GTA 6.

As the release date for GTA 6 draws closer, it’s clear that Rockstar Games has big plans for the game. Fans should stay updated on the latest GTA 6 news by following Rockstar’s social media accounts, keeping an eye on major gaming platforms, and subscribing to official game newsletters for exclusive updates on the game’s development, second trailer release date, and more.
