Rockstar Games has not yet confirmed that the highly talked about and much anticipated "Grand Theft Auto 6" is in the works. However, the alleged sixth iteration to the popular "Grand Theft Auto" series has been making headlines every now and then thanks to its eagle-eyed and highly creative fans. A new claim about the highly speculated game surfaced online, revealing the release date of "Grand Theft Auto 6."
Over the years, we have read almost all kinds of leaks and speculations about "Grand Theft Auto 6" despite the lack of official confirmation from this game developer Rockstar Games. The latest claim about the release date of "Grand Theft Auto 6" was shared on Twitter by the user named PSErebus. The tipster has made several claims in the past about the launch date and price of Sony's next-generation gaming console, the PlayStation 5.
Now, the tipster claims that the highly speculated "Grand Theft Auto 6" will be released not in 2020 but in 2021. While the tipster does not reveal more details about the claim, the release window underlines that the sixth iteration from the popular "Grand Theft Auto" series will not be released in time for the arrival of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Several rumors earlier claimed that Rockstar games might launch "Grand Theft Auto 6" just in time for the arrival of next-generation gaming consoles.

Considering that both Sony's PlayStation 5 and Microsoft's Xbox Series X are arriving on the holiday of 2020, based on the leak, "Grand Theft Auto 6" fans will have to wait a few more months or even a year to get their hands on the game. We have no way of verifying this leak, and Rockstar Games will definitely not spill out anything related to "Grand Theft Auto 6" at this point.
A few weeks ago, a hip hop group shared on Instagram about a Summer 2020 "Grand Theft Auto 6" post. Later, the gaming studio's website posted a job ad, which hinted that "Grand Theft Auto 6" is in the works. A cryptic tweet from Rockstar Games weeks later seemingly hinted at the next location of the highly talked about the sixth iteration of the popular "Grand Theft Auto" series.
It is worth mentioning that while this latest leak revealing the release window of "Grand Theft Auto 6" is interesting, it is not official. And, just like all other leaks and speculations, we recommend taking this kind of information with a pinch of salt and with skepticism.
