That’s right. The _next_ NBA season will have started before we get GTA6. [https://www.newsnationnow.com/business/tech/grand-theft-auto-vi-release-delayed-nov-2026/](https://www.newsnationnow.com/business/tech/grand-theft-auto-vi-release-delayed-nov-2026/) ---

Gonna be 2030 for the PC version at this rate. At least we’ll be able to run it at 240 fps by then. ---

They recently sacked a bunch of employees too, apparently part of some union busting efforts: > **[Rockstar says the employees it fired were leaking information, but it's not...](https://www.pcgamer.com/games/grand-theft-auto/rockstar-says-the-employees-it-fired-were-leaking-information-but-its-not-going-to-escape-union-busting-accusations-that-easily/)** > > More than 30 employees at the GTA developer were fired for sharing confidential information in a public forum. The union says they were just talking to labor organizers. Might be part of the reason for the delay? ---

That GTA6 leak was back in 2022. ---

I’m totally shocked by this development. ---

A leak? Is Microsoft making this one? …Oh, not a _memory_ leak, never mind. ---

I’d rather have Elder Scrolls 6 or Fallout 5. And, of course, the next Zelda(assuming it is open world again). I’m 47. I am not exaggerating when I guess I’ll be 52-53 when I play GTAVI for the first time. I’m not up on the latest computer and it isn’t hitting computer right away, anyway.
