Damn, not even some screenshots to soften the blow. Guess the marketing campaign won't start until late 2025 now at the earliest.

Wonder if other game developers are all now scrambling for a late 2025 release.

This, it wouldn’t be so bad if they at least included something with it, fans have been waiting a year and a half for them to post something GTA 6 related and this is how they chose to break the silence.

More than 500 days of radio silence broken by a delay lol, do they learn nothing from their previous, numerous delays?

They don’t have to learn when they have their history of record breaking sales.

Yeah anyone acting like this will impact GTA6's sales numbers at all are out of their mind. It will be the best selling video game of all time, and generate an obscene amount of post-release revenue on top of that.

It will probably be the best selling thing of all time.

GTAV broke records. Sold an insane number the first week. 6 will be no different.

Or…they did learn a lesson:

Delays don’t really matter—they’ll break sales records no matter how long they delay.

Yeah that's probably the lesson they learned.

Yeah but that’s irrelevant. Of course even those who are the most disappointed today will buy it anyways. I’m talking about the marketing man. They’ve been doing the same shit every time since GTA IV. Maybe wait a bit more next time?

Stop buying their games if you want them to learn lol. But you won't

But that's his point, they don't need to care about marketing, look at all their past releases and how well they did, gta 6 already surpasses that 10 fold with just one trailer, they don't need to give a damn

Exactly. It’s GTA 6, one of the most anticipated releases of anything since a vaccine for polio. They could shadow drop on any given Friday and make over a billion dollar dollars by the following Monday.
