GTA 6 Release Date Hint For Borderlands 4

🔊 Listen to this

We might get an indication when GTA 6 releases in fall 2025 or later. This is based on the comments of the CEO of Take Two, Strauss Zelnick. The parent company of Rockstar Games is Take-Two and they recently made their quarterly report and are calling for investors.

During the event, the company reconfirmed that GTA VI will launch in Fall 2025 for now. They also said that another of their flagship titles, Borderlands 4, is still targeting between April 1, 2025 and March 31, 2026.

These are 2 very important games for the future of Take-Two. Launching Borderlands close to GTA VI (or any game for that matter) will probably hurt how well a game sells. In an interview with VarietyMr. Zelnick said “I think it’s safe to say that we would not, and no one, would accumulate huge releases unnecessarily”.

If Take-Two announces a time for Borderlands 4 before a specific release date for GTA VI, it may help us learn where they are looking to place it. Although Borderlands 4 could come out before Fall 2025, there’s a pretty good chance it will move into Fall 2025. If it ends up being close to GTA VI and Rockstar wants a little more time, it’s possible we’ll see GTA 6 slide into late 2025 or even early 2026 as a last resort. Rockstar is “aiming for perfection” when it comes to GTA VI and its launch.

GTA VI is obviously the top priority but as a company, they don’t want to cannibalize their other original IP. The Borderlands movie was a major failure at the box office but Zelnick was quick to note in the call with investors that the movie coming out led to huge sales of the Borderlands games. It may not have made money at the box office but it helped people find the games.
