In the latest on GTA 6's November 2026 launch timeline—following a former Rockstar developer's recent assessment—Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier has rebutted rumors of further delays stemming from his podcast comments, affirming the game remains on track despite not being content complete.
Building on ongoing discussions, including a former developer's view on meeting the November 19, 2026 target for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, Schreier clarified during the Button Mash podcast that GTA 6 is 'still not content complete,' as developers finalize levels, missions, and content. He stressed uncertainty but noted he wouldn't be surprised if it launches on schedule, akin to Red Dead Redemption 2's path from announced fall 2017 slips to an October 2018 release.
Media misinterpretations prompted Schreier's Bluesky response: 'This is a complete misunderstanding... I wouldn't be shocked if GTA6 does come out this fall, following the same delay pattern as RDR2. Of course another delay is possible.' He criticized a misleading blog post for not reaching out.
Rockstar's history includes two prior GTA 6 postponements from 2025, potentially costing $60 million and affecting industry schedules. While some speculated a 2027 shift, Schreier's update supports the current window. Rockstar has not commented, and pricing remains unconfirmed amid $100 edition rumors.
