‘We Don’t Want It Anymore’ — Why Gamers Are Now Done With GTA 6
GTA VI Delayed for 1 Year

Have you heard of it? GTA 6 has been delayed for another year. The game will now arrive in May 2026.
We were all waiting for it to come this year, and this year, too, after a long delay, some news about it has come out.
You must know that it has been more than ten-eleven years since the last GTA came out; I don't know how many years have passed; it came in 2013, and there is no sign of the next GTA.
So some questions arise as to why this delay is happening, why the company is taking it so lightly, why GTAs are coming after so much delay and when the next GTA will come.
Now the attitude of gamers has changed
The first thing is that we don't want your game. You keep it to yourself. Congratulations to you. Now this is the attitude of the public towards GTA 6.
There has been so much delay that people will now start going to other games. No matter how good a game you bring.
The reason is clear - if anything is not available at the right time, its charm goes away.
Just like a small child needs a nipple to drink milk - but if he got it at the age of 15, then what is the use of it now? He did not get it when he needed it.
When I was in my school days, I wanted a sports bike; now, if I got a sports bike, then I didn't want it; I wanted a car. So when something comes at the right time then it feels good.
GTA 6 is not coming on time, and nothing is more powerful than time. Be it any game, anyone, the whole world, nothing is faster than time. Nothing is better than time. Nothing is more powerful than time, boss.
Did these people not know earlier that it could take so much more time. They posted an Instagram post in which they wrote that we need more time to make it the best, so you should have told us this earlier.

The timing of the trailer is also under question
Rockstar launched the trailer two years ago. Trailer of a game two years ago? That too, when the game was not even ready?
Actually, there was a big reason for launching the trailer — leaks.
The game's characters, settings, and inspiration (a Bonnie & Clyde-like story) had all already been leaked.
The company was under pressure and its reputation was at stake — so they released an official trailer to control the damage.
But even at that time, the developers themselves knew that the game wasn't ready.
Is 2026 also the last date?
If Rockstar wants, it can push it further — maybe till the launch of the next PlayStation.
Because the real earnings are still happening — from GTA 5 and GTA Online.
If one product is bringing money, then there is no urgency to bring a new product.
Microsoft also did the same — said Windows 10 would be the last, but then Windows 11 came. If money comes, a new strategy comes.
There is also risk for Rockstar
If GTA 6 flops, then maybe we will see the next GTA in 2-3 years.
But if it is a blockbuster, then forget about the next 10-15 years - then different updates will keep coming in the same series so that players do not get bored.
Gaming is no longer just creativity – it is corporate
Today, the corporate mindset dominates every industry.
Watch movies – less originality, more sequels.
The same is happening in gaming – tested formulas are being repeated. The delay in GTA 6 is also a part of this thinking.
System requirements are also a challenge
And when the game comes, it will probably have requirements like a high-end RTX GPU and 1TB SSD.
It will not run on most people's PCs.
So either buy a new console or keep dreaming.
Conclusion
GTA 6 is now a distant dream. The wait is getting longer, and the trust is getting broken.
It is now important for Rockstar to not just build hype — but actually deliver the game this time.
Because there is a time for everything — and time is the greatest game.
Bye.
