The headline information: as a substitute of launching on twenty sixth Might, 2026, the sport has been pushed again about half a yr to nineteenth November, 2026.

Per Take-Two, this delay is designed to provide “some further time to complete the sport with the excessive degree of polish gamers count on and deserve. Rockstar has our full assist after all, and we’re assured they’ll ship an unrivalled blockbuster leisure expertise.”
