GTA 6 release date update – Great news for fans about Rockstar Games next hit

GTA 6 release date may still be awhile away, but fans of the Rockstar Games series have been delivered an encouraging update ahead of it. GTA 6 rumours have been coming in thick and fast with plenty of claims swirling about the highly anticipated PlayStation and Xbox game. Recently it was claimed that GTA 6 could have a release date in 2020 and that it would be a PS5 exclusive for one month. If the shock claims are true then it would give Sony a big advantage at the start of the next console wars.

It’s unclear whether GTA 6 will be solely for next-gen consoles such as the PS5 and Xbox Two, or whether it will be cross-gen with PS4 and Xbox One.

And ahead of the GTA 6 release date big news about the highly anticipated title could have leaked again.

As revealed in a post by PCGamesN, a member of the gaming industry may have let slip that work on GTA 6 is currently underway.

A post on Pastebin was recently discovered from someone claiming to be a third-party dev in Europe that knows about the PS5.

According to the leak, GTA 6 will have a release date of holiday 2020 – and it’s rumoured that it will be a timed PS5 exclusive.

Sony allegedly paid “big money” to have GTA 6 as a PS5 exclusive for one month.

The rumour also claims that GTA 6 would boast two large cities for players to explore – Miami and Liberty City.

This ties into a GTA 6 rumour that emerged last year which claimed GTA 6 would see a return to Vice City.
