GTA 6 New News: Rockstar Delays Release Again, Developers Fired, and Trailer 3 Hype Builds Up

Breaking: GTA 6 Delayed Again to November 2026

The gaming world just got hit with another bombshell — Rockstar Games has officially delayed GTA 6 once again.
The new release date is now November 19, 2026, according to reports from The Guardian and India Today Tech.

Originally set for May 2026, the launch has been pushed by six months. Rockstar explained that the delay is to “deliver the level of polish players deserve.”
Fans, however, are frustrated — it’s been over 13 years since GTA V dropped in 2013.

💬 “We’re committed to setting a new standard for open-world experiences,” said Rockstar in its latest statement.

 Rockstar’s Internal Drama: 30 Employees Fired Over Leaks

Rockstar’s clean-up operation has intensified. According to Kotaku, more than 30 developers were terminated for allegedly leaking early GTA 6 content and internal material.

However, labor unions like the IWGB (UK) have accused Rockstar of “union-busting tactics.” The company denied the claims, insisting that the firings were for policy violations, not union activity.

Meanwhile, reports suggest morale inside Rockstar is low, with some anonymous developers claiming they’re “left in the dark” about the project timeline.

Vice City Confirmed Again: Welcome to Leonida

Despite the internal chaos, the creative direction is clear — GTA 6 takes place in modern-day Vice City, set in the fictional state of Leonida, loosely inspired by Florida.

Expect sunny beaches, neon lights, and a deep, story-driven world.
According to leaked reports, players can explore a massive world — twice the size of GTA V, with evolving weather, wildlife, and economy systems.

GTA 6 Trailer 3 Rumors: Coming Soon?

Fans are buzzing about a possible Trailer 3 drop this year.
GamingBIBLE and industry insiders suggest Rockstar could release the next trailer around Take-Two’s next investor earnings call.

If that happens, expect new footage of protagonists Lucia and Jason, updated map visuals, and a release date confirmation for consoles and PC.

🔍 Fun fact: Trailer 1 broke YouTube records with over 170 million views in under 72 hours.

 Why the Delay Might Be a Good Thing

While fans are frustrated, history shows Rockstar delays often lead to masterpieces.
GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 both faced similar delays but went on to become cultural landmarks.

Delays allow Rockstar to:
✅ Fix bugs before launch
✅ Polish the visuals for next-gen consoles
✅ Balance the massive open-world economy
✅ Ensure stable online multiplayer from day one
