GTA 6 release delayed to May 2026 to polish online platform

Rockstar's GTA 6 release is delayed to May 2026, not due to story mode which insiders say is already finished, but to perfect its online platform. The studio aims to avoid past launch issues and handle 35–40 million players in 72 hours. The game's recently released second trailer introduced Jason and Lucia, hinting at a high-stakes, conspiracy-filled narrative across Leonida.
