Fans think GTA 6 will be announced this week.

Voice actor Bryan Zampella, rumoured to be involved in #GTA6, posted an Instagram reel featuring Shawn Fonteno (the voice of Franklin in GTA V) and pointing to the September 17 date; the reel was subsequently removed.

Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar's parent company, has hinted at a 2025 release date for the game, expected to be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The gaming community is also actively debating sensitive issues, such as whether the game should allow morally controversial actions. Whether Rockstar will use the 10th anniversary of GTA V for a significant update or reveal remains uncertain.

Rockstar Games has officially announced the development of Red Dead Redemption 3, but has not specified a release date.

The company's CEO, Zelnick, emphasized the importance of taking time between releases to maintain a sense of rarity and excitement for the franchise. He compared the staying power of the Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto series to iconic franchises like James Bond, signalling a long-term commitment.

The series has seen significant success since its 2010 and 2018 releases, setting high standards in storytelling and gameplay.

While Rockstar is also working on GTA VI, the release of Red Dead Redemption 3 is likely to be delayed, possibly not even appearing on the current generation of gaming consoles, as part of a strategy to keep the franchise fresh and fans eager for more.
