Is Grand Theft Auto 6 coming out this 2025? It's a question that we'd all love to get an answer to, but unfortunately only Rockstar Games knows the truth. Until it confirms the official GTA 6 release date, the only official statement we have to go on is what Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick recently said and has kept on saying for at least a year now.

However, while official word about GTA 6's release date is still likely at least a few months away, we might have just gotten the closest thing to it, straight from someone who's deep in the trenches and dealing with Rockstar's return-to-office mandate. In a post on Reddit discussing an earlier leak of the still-to-be-confirmed_Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4_, one particularly interesting comment stands out about how developers feel when information about their titles are released before they're ready.

According to the user, leaks "don't discourage devs, but it can be an absolute mood killer." Normally, you'd think nothing of this comment, except he added that he's "at a studio working on a big 2025 release," and that the studio initially planned on making a big deal of their game's reveal trailer only for it to be leaked the night before.
