The latest rumors surrounding the game have to do with its development progress and roughly when fans will actually get to play it. Leaker Chris Klippel, who has accurately leaked Rockstar Games news in the past, believes that there’s a chanceGrand Theft Auto 6could have its proper reveal by the end of the year as the game’s development is progressing well. However, that doesn’t mean fans should expect to play the game anytime soon.
Klippel believes that theGrand Theft Auto 6release datewon’t be until sometime at the end of 2024, even with the game supposedly progressing well behind-the-scenes. So while it may still be some time beforeGrand Theft Autofans get to play the next game in the beloved franchise, at least there is some light at the end of the tunnel, and they have a general idea of when they may expect to hear more about it.
