According to an unverified post, the end credits of Grand Theft Auto VI run more than 80 minutes, making sitting through the sequence a small commitment in itself. If true, this would dwarf every Grand Theft Auto game before it.
Rockstar Games' credits have grown with its teams, from a few minutes in the early games to around 35 to 40 minutes for Grand Theft Auto V and roughly half an hour for Red Dead Redemption 2. An 80-minute roll would more than double GTA V and run longer than it takes to beat a single mission in some of the games on this list.
The claim comes from Moon Media, which posted an "exclusive" saying GTA 6's credits section tops 80 minutes, with a graphic and no sourcing beyond its own word. Rockstar has not published credits timings for any game, let alone this one. GTA 6 does not release until November 19, so there is no way to check it yet.
The rumor is plausible though. GTA 6 was built by Rockstar's largest team yet, with the studio growing past 4,000 people across multiple Rockstar studios over a long, closely tracked development. More names can mean a longer credits roll, but a game reportedly around 80 hours long does not necessarily need an hour-plus of scrolling thank-yous.
Rockstar has rewarded credit-watchers before. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas gave players a "Time to Kill" trophy for sitting through the credits to the end, with other games from Sonic Colors to Rare Replay doing the same.
If the 80-minute figure holds, GTA 6 owes fans a trophy and perhaps even a coffee for making it through.
How long the credits roll in Rockstar Games titles
Game | Credits length |
|---|---|
Grand Theft Auto III (2001) | A few minutes |
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) | About 5 to 6 minutes |
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004) | About 7 minutes |
Grand Theft Auto IV (2008) | About 18 to 20 minutes |
Grand Theft Auto V (2013) | About 35 to 40 minutes |
Grand Theft Auto VI (2026) | A rumored 80-plus minutes, unconfirmed |
Red Dead Redemption (2010) | About 20 to 26 minutes |
Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018) | About 30 to 36 minutes |
Rockstar's credits have grown with its teams. A real 80-minute GTA 6 roll would tower over them all.
This is the kind of detail that only matters because the game is so big. GTA 6 already tops our ranking of GTA and Red Dead by length; it carries a budget reportedly bigger than any movie and it sits at the center of a franchise that keeps outgrowing itself. An 80-minute credits roll, true or not, is on brand for the most ambitious game Rockstar has made.
We will know for sure in a couple of weeks, when someone inevitably records the whole thing and posts a timer.
Until then, the 80-minute number is a rumor.
