The release date forGrand Theft Auto 6has allegedly leaked online, along with a date for the trailer and announcement.
However, while the proposed dates seem sensible and convincing, the source does not.
A “leaked” voice memo has appeared online that is said to feature the CEO of Rockstar’s parent company Take-Two, Strauss Zelnick. In it, he discusses the announcement and release windows of the hugely-anticipated follow-up to 2013’sGTA V.
If taken as real, the memo reveals that the official announcement of GTA 6 will take place in October this year, with the game hitting stores 12-months later – in October 2024.
That certainly fits with Zelnick’s previous corroborated statements that Take-Two is set for a massive fiscal year 25, which runs from April next year to March 2025. So far, so good.
The evidence, they say, is that in it he refers to the game as “Grand Theft Auto V [vee] I [eye]”. And, while some might call it that when looking at the supposed logo, few human beings would actually use that vernacular – let alone the boss of the company set to release it.

After all, plenty of phone renders tend to appear each year that are based on speculation rather than confirmed fact, yet turn out to be very close to the truth.
Maybe this clip is bang on the money, even if AI-generated. We guess we’ll have to wait until this October to find out for sure.
In our own opinion, we expect Rockstar to make some form of announcement on or around 17 September, as that day marks the 10th anniversary of GTA 5, so would be as good a time as any to finally unveil its successor.
