Rockstar Games has delayed the launch of GTA VI to November 19, 2026, after initially targeting a May release.

Grand Theft Auto (GTA) maker Rockstar Games has been accused by a trade union of sacking staff in the UK to stop them from unionising. The Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain (IWGB), which represents people working in the gaming sector, said 31 workers were fired from Rockstar's UK studios on 30 October.

Rockstar Games has delayed Grand Theft Auto 6 for the second time. Previously scheduled for a May 2026 release, the studio's open-world crime epic is now scheduled to arrive on Nov. 19, 2026, Rockstar Games has announced.

Perhaps one of the most anticipated video games of all time, GTA VI is now slated for a November 19, 2026, release.

A recent report indicated that Grand Theft Auto developer Rockstar Games was engaging in a "ruthless" act of union busting. According to Bloomberg's Jason Schreier, Rockstar fired between 30 and 40 developers across its offices in the United Kingdom and Canada on Thursday,
