People were concerned about the quality of GTA 6’s gameplay before the Netflix extended look, given the limited footage previously released. Now that those fears have been quashed, head of development and co-lead of Rockstar North Rob Nelson wants the next biggest concern, another release date delay, to be squashed as well.
In an interview with Famitsu that’s been translated by GamesRadar+, the interviewer discusses how they no longer have concerns about the game’s quality after watching the GTA 6 extended look that premiered on Netflix. However, the one thing they were still concerned about was whether the game would be released in November.
GTA 6 has seen two release date delays. The first was from 2025 to 2026, and the second GTA 6 delay moved the launch date six months from May 26 to November 19. However, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has remained firm on the November release date, reiterating his confidence in multiple interviews.

Nelson has now added his voice to the choir, certain that GTA 6 will come out in November. “It was our hope that people wouldn’t be worried about the quality [after watching the extended look],” he says. “We’re really pleased. Also, it will be released on time.”
As it’s expected to be the biggest game of all time, there is a lot of pressure weighing down on GTA 6 and Rockstar’s shoulders. It seems that the studio is firm on its promise that we’ll be able to dive into Vice City come November.
