As the year closes and we look forward to next year’s big games, it’s over a year since Rockstar provided a new trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6. Though the eagerly awaited open-world title is out in Fall 2025, there’s been very little by way of details other than the team is working on “absolutely mind-blowing” things.
Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive (Rockstar’s parent company), touched on this in a new interview with Conner Mather on YouTube. “Our teams are focused on what’s new that you haven’t even thought about. You thought you were anticipating this thing, but this is way bigger, way better, more exciting and more beautiful than you could have possibly thought of.”
As for fans and their frustration, Zelnick said he understood how they felt but that the company wants to “wait for a title to be ready” before launching it. He further added that it will be “extraordinary,” “worth waiting for,” and “breathtaking.” While he still doesn’t indicate when new details will arrive, at least there’s some acknowledgment of the frustration.
Grand Theft Auto 6 is in development for Xbox Series X/S and PS5, with Rockstar yet to confirm a PC version. Set in modern-day Vice City, it introduces two new protagonists – Lucia and an unknown male (which leaks indicate to be named Jason). Stay tuned for updates, and check out our article on why the next trailer is taking so long.
