The leak about GTA 6 release date from a retailer that traced to PlayStation has been debunked.
Gamers everywhere have been buzzing about Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6), and a new leak just added fuel to the fire.
A Spanish retailer, XUruguay, listed the game’s release date as September 17, 2025. Now, fans are debating whether this leak is legit or just another wild guess. Let’s get into what this could mean.
GTA 6 Release Date Leak Debunked
A Spanish online store, XUruguay, put up a listing for Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6), saying it would drop on September 17, 2025, and only on PlayStation 5.
That date is interesting because GTA V was released on the same day years ago, so maybe Rockstar is following a pattern. But here’s the twist—the date didn’t stay up for long. It was quickly removed, but not before the retailer claimed they got the info straight from PlayStation.
XUruguay said they work directly with PlayStation, which tells them what they can sell and when. That makes it seem like the date came from PlayStation itself.
Despite the initial excitement, many remain doubtful about the leak’s credibility. The listing was quickly removed, and the retailer later admitted the date was not official. Furthermore, major game releases typically fall on Tuesdays or Fridays, making a Wednesday launch seem unlikely.
Uruguay later clarified that the September 17 date was not based on official information. Instead, it was likely chosen due to its connection with GTA V’s release. The retailer has since apologized for any confusion the listing may have caused.
Official Statements from the Companies
Back in December 2023, Rockstar Games finally confirmed that GTA 6 is coming in 2025. The announcement came straight from Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar’s parent company, and they made it clear that the game will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series XS.
Fast forward to May 2024, Take-Two spoke up again during its last earnings call for the year. They stuck to the plan and said GTA 6 is still on track for a fall 2025 release, even though rumors about delays have been flying around.
With both Rockstar and Take-Two standing firm on the 2025 release, it looks like fans can finally stop guessing and start counting down the days.
