Fans of the highly-anticipated game began speculating whether the decision to revise the release date of Borderlands 4 was due to the GTA 6.

Concerns were raised by the fans at the time the Gearbox title’s release date was announced, as several suggested that GTA 6 might miss its Fall 2025 release date.

Take-Two Interactive has set the Rockstar Games’ title for a release in the fall of 2025.

Following the confirmation, Rockstar Games stated that GTA 6 will be released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

The first and only trailer for GTA 6 was released on December 4, 2023, showing that the title will be set in a fictional Vice City, reminiscent of Miami, and will feature the first playable female character in the franchise.
