Is Rockstar Games GTA 6 Delayed Again?
The internet is buzzing again about Grand Theft Auto VI slipping to 2027, but there is no solid proof the game has been delayed beyond 2026. No, GTA 6 has not been officially delayed again to 2027; the only confirmed delay so far is the move to November 19, 2026. The fresh wave of “2027 confirmed” posts is basically rumor fatigue meeting algorithm farming, not an announcement from Rockstar Games.
A known Rockstar-focused insider, Reece “Kiwi Talkz” Reilly, who accurately called the earlier May-to-November shift, has directly called the 2027 claims “total BS” and stressed that the game is still too far out for anyone to know if another delay will even be needed. That kind of blunt pushback is rare in leak culture, which is probably why it cut through the noise for once. Hoops Crave (@HoopsCrave) claimed on X that Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed to June 6, 2027, but added context notes that Rockstar Games has not announced such a delay and the current release target remains November 19, 2026.
When is GTA 6 release?
Right now, the official GTA 6 release date is November 19, 2026, and Rockstar has not changed or walked back that timeline. The studio previously nudged the game from its earlier May 26, 2026 slot, apologising and saying those extra months are about bringing the game up to the level of polish players expect.
Rockstar even framed the delay around wanting enough time to do justice to the huge open world of Leonida and a return to modern Vice City, which is exactly the kind of thing fans would rather wait for than rush. So unless Rockstar posts a new statement, November 19, 2026 is still the date to circle in red on the calendar.

How Did the Rumor Info Start?
The 2027 talk started with a handful of viral posts hinting that Rockstar had “quietly” pushed GTA 6 again, and then social media did what it always does: snowball half-baked claims into a full-blown narrative. A few creators and accounts framed it as almost inevitable that such a massive game would slip, and that tone alone was enough for many fans to treat it like a leak instead of speculation. That matches the broader pattern right now: every time there is a quiet spell from Rockstar, the vacuum gets filled by “insiders,” prediction threads, and clicky thumbnails about worst‑case scenarios.
