The anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 continues to build as its release date is set for November 19, 2026. However, uncertainty surrounds this timeline, with all eyes on Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, which will hold its fiscal year 2026 earnings call on May 21. This call is critical, as it may provide insights into the company's financial projections. If Take-Two maintains a positive outlook for late 2026, it could affirm that the November release date remains intact. Conversely, any shift in revenue expectations could signal a possible delay, adding to the speculation after two previous postponements.

While analysts express high confidence—estimating a 90%+ chance that the release date will hold—concerns linger due to the game's ambitious scope, which includes evolving its online ecosystem. As for pricing, analysts expect the standard edition to range from $70 to $80 (approximately ₹5,800 to ₹6,600), with deluxe editions potentially exceeding $100 (around ₹8,000). The immense popularity of its predecessor, GTA V, which has generated billions in revenue, underscores the significance of this release. Fans can look forward to new trailers and gameplay reveals leading up to the launch, but the next major checkpoint is the May 21 earnings call.
