GTA 6 fans have marked 6 February in their calendars

The Grand Theft Auto VI community has officially reached peak levels of desperation, because fans of Rockstar Games’ upcoming title are now certain the most boring event of 2025 will offer them an update on the game’s release date.

This Thursday, 6 February, marks an exciting day for people who invest a lot of their spare time reading the Financial Times, because it's Take-Two Interactive's (Rockstar Games’ parent company) next earnings call.

Why exactly does that have any bearing on the release of Grand Theft Auto VI’s release date? Well, rumours are floating around online that the title will be delayed.

If it isn’t delayed and is still projected to release in 2025, as previously stated, Take-Two will address that to keep their investors happy. As a result, fans will finally have some form of confirmation that they’ll actually be able to get their hands on the game this year.

Take a look at GTA VI's original trailer below.

Over in a thread on the r/GTA6 subreddit, users shared their hopes and excitement for the upcoming earnings call.

Jeez, writing that really puts into perspective how depressing it is that we’re getting excited for a bunch of multi-millionaires to waffle about their stock portfolios in a board room…

“I've never been so excited/nervous for a company's earnings calling in my f**king life,” commented user Unlikely-Finding-349.

“If they do confirm that release window, we have to be weeks, maybe even days away at most from Rockstar sharing new information,” replied user Fun_Accountant2900.

As far as ridiculous GTA VI-related theories go… this one actually isn’t that bad.

Money talks, and Take-Two are going to have to justify the future of their most profitable franchise to their investors.

They’re not required to tell us commoners any details about GTA VI until they want to, but they have to give their investors some solid information to keep them happy.

So yeah, mark your calendars, because I personally think we will actually get some real info out of this one.
