Take-Two CEO Says GTA 6 Is Still on Track for November 19 Despite Delay Rumors

[tradelikepro]

Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick has pushed back against rumors that Grand Theft Auto 6 is heading toward a third delay, reaffirming the current November 19 release date in a recent interview on David Senra's YouTube channel. When pressed on how he could state the date with confidence given the game's two previous delays, Zelnick acknowledged the game is roughly 18 months behind its original release window but indicated he does not expect further slippage. He stopped short of making an absolute guarantee but spoke with enough conviction to signal that Take-Two is not internally preparing for another date change. The comments come amid widespread fan speculation fueled by an extended period of silence from Rockstar Games, which has not released new footage or updates since the second trailer dropped in May 2025.GTA 6 has had a turbulent path to release.

The game was first pushed from a 2025 window to May 26, 2026, before a second delay was announced in November 2025 moving it to its current November date. Each delay has intensified scrutiny around the project, and Rockstar's characteristically tight information security has left fans oscillating between excitement and anxiety in the absence of official updates. Zelnick also used the interview to describe GTA as what he believes is the most valuable intellectual property ever created in gaming, stopping short of disclosing GTA 5's total revenue but acknowledging it is, in his words, a lot. Whether November 19 holds will likely remain a topic of intense speculation until Rockstar either releases a third trailer or Take-Two formally confirms pre-order details.
