Despite the overwhelming excitement, Take-Two Interactive, the publisher of GTA 6, remains cautious about committing to a firm release date, only hinting that the game will be out before March 2025. This hesitation may be due in part to the infamous ransomware attack that targeted the game and resulted in the arrest and sentencing of several individuals. However, this uncertainty has not dampened the enthusiasm of fans eagerly awaiting any news about the next installment of the Grand Theft Auto franchise.
