GTA 6: 6 Brand New Leaked Details You Need To Know About

3. 2022 Is A Tentative Release Date

The Know's inside source told them that GTA 6 will be shipped within the next three to four years, and there's already a tentative release date of 2022 pencilled in. Can GTA 5's life cycle extend to nine years? It's possible, however Rockstar might want to think about leaking some more details before then to keep people interested.

Of course, Red Dead Redemption 2 is set for release in October 2018, and that will keep the gaming world talking for a good while.

When it comes to the studio's major franchises, Rockstar like to take their time. That shouldn't be a problem, even if playing the waiting game when exploring a new Vice City inspired - to a greater extent than before - by real-life Miami feels excruciating already.

There were only two years between the original Vice City and the release of San Andreas, a further four years between that game and GTA 4 and around five between Niko Bellic's tale and GTA 5. When put like that, and realising that Rockstar want to make 6 the best they can, maybe the wait isn't so bad.
