Summary
As fans continue to speculate onGrand Theft Auto 6’s release thanks to silence from Rockstar,the specific date may have quietly just dropped online. Following the teaser trailer for Rockstar’s upcoming open-world game, rumors have swirled endlessly about when players can expect to see the next mainline entry in the beloved franchise. Aside from a general window of 2025 and a few vague comments from publisher Take-Two Interactive, nothing else is known about the game’s launch, which makes this supposed leak all the more interesting.
Posted to Reddit bygebbos11,the user shared a screenshot ofGrand Theft Auto 6’s IMDB listing which notes that the game is slated to arrive on June 11, 2025.
While this is in no way confirmation, it’s worth noting that the information has seemingly been pulled from the page, suggesting that it was either an error or accurate information.Launching in October 2025 does line up with Take-Two’s previous statements which narrowed the release down to fall 2025but the specific month and day has yet to be officially unveiled or confirmed by either the publisher or Rockstar.
Skipping A GTA 6 PC Release Would Be A Major Blunder For One Key Reason
Grand Theft Auto 6 is one of the most eagerly anticipated games at the moment, but doesn’t seem to be coming to PC alongside consoles in Fall 2025.
Could GTA VI’s Release Date Leake Be Accurate?
It’s Just Too Early To Tell
Despite lacking confirmation on the release date, it’s worth noting thatRockstar has a history of dropping its biggest games in or around October.GTA II, GTA III, GTA: Vice City, GTA: San Andreas, GTA: Liberty City Stories, GTA: Vice City Stories,GTA 4: The Ballad of Gay Tony, andGTA 5: Onlineall debuted in October. That’s not to say the same will be true forGTA VIbut it does add some thin credibility to the supposed leak.
Having said that, it does seem unlikely that Rockstar will have nailed down a release date forGTA 6just yet.Fall 2025 is still a long way away so the studio is probably still internally working with a launch windowrather than committing to a specific date.Given the scale and scope of the project, it’s better to have some leeway when it comes to announcing a final date given how much can happen to development over a year.
Whatever the case may be,Grand Theft Auto 6is already gearing up to be one of the biggest video game launches in recent memory.The teaser trailer took the world by storm, raking in hundreds of millions of views just a couple of days after its premiere, setting expectations for what willlikely be a massive success for Rockstar. Whether it’s able to eclipsethe domineering presence ofGTA Onlineremains to be seen.

Everything We Know About GTA 6
Rockstar’s Biggest Game Yet
The jury’s still out on the validity of the supposed release date leak but Rockstar has treated audiences to some snippets of information regardingGTA 6. The game is returning to one of the franchise’s most storied locations: Thesun-soaked beaches of Vice City. A fictional stand-in for the real-life city of Miami,GTA 6’s trailers haven’t shied away from demonstrating the kinds of outlandish activities players will likely witnessthroughout the adventure. Some stand-outs includea police officer wrangling an alligatorout of a pool and a gang of dirt bikers driving circles around the authorities.
GTA 6will also star Lucia, the series' first-ever playable female character, and while not much is known about her, the teaser trailer does hint that her story will be filled with criminal activities. The first trailer depicts her committing felonies alongside an unnamed male character (whom many have taken to calling Jason in place of his actual name) as the two become entangled in what appears to be a passionate romance. Some have taken to comparing the dynamic to the infamousreal-world pair Bonnie and Clydebut it’s unknown howGTA 6will explore the couple’s dynamic.

Is GTA 6 Coming To PC?
Probably, But It Might Be A While
Grand Theft Auto 6is also confirmed as a current-generation exclusive meaning those hoping fora downgraded port for PlayStation 4 and Xbox Oneare out of luck. The game will launch forPlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|Sbutwhether or not the PC version arrives at the same time is still unknown. Much like previousGTAgames, there’s a good chance the sixth installment will launch for consoles before eventually being ported to PC a few months (or years) later;GTA 5took over a year to come to PC after its Xbox 360 and PS3 release.
The biggest question surroundingGrand Theft Auto 6is how Rockstar will approach the game’s multiplayer given thatGTA Onlinehas generated billions for the studio.Whether the current iteration of the experience remains in place or becomes integrated into the next game remains to be seenbut featuring a multiplayer option with current-gen benefits seems like a solid idea. Having said that, with so many players still playingGTA Online, Rockstar might not want to shake up the existing player base or risk splitting the community in half.
