I'm low-key bummed about this delay

. Like, I've been following GTA VI's development since 2018 and I'm hyped for the new protagonists Jason & Lucia

. The game's setting looks fire

! But 12 years is a looong time to be waiting, fam

. On the bright side, GTA V raked in $8.6 billion in sales

and Red Dead Redemption 2 did over $725 million on opening weekend

. This delay might just give the devs time to make it even better

.
Here's a rough breakdown of the game's development timeline:
* Announced: May 2023 (1 year ago)
* Original release date: Late 2025 (currently set for late 2026, 1 year later)
* Development started: 2018
* GTA V sales (2013-2023): $8.6 billion

* Red Dead Redemption 2 opening weekend sales (2018): $725 million
I've got a graph showing the average game development time for Rockstar Games, btw:
[Insert rough graph with 5-10 games on it, each with its own dev time in years]
The data says that most of their games take around 4-6 years to develop

. Maybe this delay will be worth it?
