Reports are stating that the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI aka GTA 6 is causing ripples throughout the gaming industry. While Rockstar Games has only hinted at a Fall 2025 release, many publishers are hesitant to commit to their own 2025 release schedules until they have a clearer picture of GTA 6’s launch.

This uncertainty has led to a cautious approach by many publishers, as they seek to avoid a direct clash with one of the most anticipated games of all time.
Anonymous sources familiar with publisher deliberations told Bloomberg that the anticipation for Rockstar Games’ next big title is so high that it’s causing ramifications for the rest of the video game industry.
