‘GTA 6’ Release Date, News & Update: Game Arriving in 2018? ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ Causing Delay in Production? New Maps Revealed?

Rockstar Games has already confirmed "Red Dead Redemption 2" but there's still no news on the other hotly anticipated title, "Grand Theft Auto 6." It is now assumed that the game studio is focusing on "RDR 2" as it is scheduled to release in fall next year. Currently, Rockstar Games is also banking on the success of "GTA 5" and its multiplayer mode, "GTA 5 Online." With that said, there are speculations that the plans for "GTA 6" have been put to the sidelines.

According to reports, production for "GTA 6" has been put on hold because of "Red Dead Redemption 2." The next "Grand Theft Auto" installment is rumored to take place in a new location, and for that, developers will require more time to work on the game.

Previous rumors suggested that "GTA 6" will be out by 2017, but since "Red Dead Redemption 2" came into the picture, the speculated date has been changed. GamenGuide previously reported about leaked plans for "GTA 5 Online" DLCs. It was mentioned that Vice City is planned to be a DLC for "GTA 6," which should be out by 2020. Following the exit of former Rockstar North president, Leslie Benzies, the game is rumored to come out in 2020, which coincides with the leak. Then again, other reports also suggest that 2018 is a possible release date for the game.

Clearly, there have been conflicting reports regarding the release date of "GTA 6," but many agree that the game should come out sometime after "Red Dead Redemption 2." It could take several months or it could take years after "RDR2's" release - no one really knows. The speculations are expected to keep growing but some gaming enthusiasts believe that Rockstar Games should take their time since "GTA 5" still has more years ahead. In the meantime, fans will just have to stay tuned to GamenGuide for more updates.
