GTA fans, rejoice! Grand Theft Auto 6 is still on track for its expected fall release, so go ahead and cancel all those plans to go outside or interact with real humans. Fans can now breathe easy knowing that their virtual life of crime and mayhem will not be postponed again (hopefully).
Who needs the outside world when you have a massive digital city to loot and cause chaos? How will the game work while the world falls into chaos like the universe of GTA itself?
According to Kotaku, GTA 6 will probably be released on 28 October this year! However, there is no official confirmation yet!
On top of that, Take-Two is convinced that The Old Country: Civilization 7 and Borderlands 4 will also see the light of day by no later than this year—because who doesn't want more means of causing chaos?
Of course, while the news of GTA 6’s fall release is a relief to many, let’s not pretend we weren't already mentally prepping for yet another "postpone" announcement. After all, in the GTA, fans have gotten used to waiting longer than just a weekend drive in Los Santos traffic.
Will the game drop on time, or are they just pulling the damn "just kidding—it's delayed until further notice" trick? The fans will be ready—likely with a ton of memes, conspiracy theories, and ten days of calling in "sick" when the game finally lands.
As soon as the news came out, someone (@CostcoHotDog666) took to his X account and commented:
"Everyone is taking off that day"
Well, if you're not staying home and playing on the day GTA 6 is set to release, are you even living? It's a gaming holiday for all of us, with productivity plummeting to a new low and Zoom calls inexplicably being the ideal excuse to pretend like an emergency came up.
Some businesses may wish to prepare themselves for a spate of "sudden" illnesses, while parents worldwide are desperately seeking to find ways to entertain children without derailing their own virtual crime wave.
Bosses, pay attention: If you notice your workers disappearing from Slack at 12 PM on the dot, don't inquire—simply know they're on their way to rob an online bank or pilfer a sports car.
And just as expected, the internet came alive with reactions ranging from sheer excitement to disbelief! Let us look at how the netizens reacted!

People are still in disbelief, and why not! Someone (@StoryGamerIN) commented:

"October 28th actually sounds like a legit time in which this could launch. However I wouldn’t believe anything until Rockstar officially announces the date."
A netizen (@DragonZord979) commented:
"If true then nobody will be hearing from me for a few days"
One fan (@LanMetax) commented:
"The day the internet breaks."
A user (@an_toni_oc) wrote:
"If true then I'm off a week"
A netizen (@GTASixJoker) hilriously ponted out:
"We got a GTA 6 release date before GTA 6"
Fans are gearing up for a day of chaos, virtual heists, and questionable driving skills. The real world will just have to wait. After all, it’s hard to focus on spreadsheets when you’re busy outrunning cops on stolen motorcycles. When GTA 6 drops, it’s not just a game release—it's going to be an international holiday of virtual anarchy.
