The release date of GTA 6 was thought to be on the same release date for the new Sony PlayStation console on 2018. However, this will not be the case. Fans were eagerly waiting for any update for the much-awaited sequel of this game. Major game events have already finished, yet there were still no information that was announced related to this release despite all of the fans' demand.

The Grand Theft Auto 5 was released for more than three years ago already. The series' trend of having sequels can really be expected. But this silence is making fans feel bad about this seemingly overdue release.

This caused the GTA 6's abandonment issue to surface. Rockstar Games has neither commented nor released a statement about what happened with the GTA 6 franchise. In 2018, the action-adventure game is said to be released. This, however, is just according to rumors. Leslie Benzies, which is the assumed 'brain' of the game, was confirmed to have quitted her job in Rockstar. These events may contribute largely on the delayed release of the game for around one to two years. This is indeed a significant loss for Rockstar, as well as to its millions of die-hard fans, especially those who are hardcore enthusiasts of action-adventure games.

According to the Attack of the Fan Boy, GTA 6 has been tagged as the most sought-after game after the major success of GTA 5, which is its forerunner. GTA 5 was able to collect revenues which have obtained over $1 billion for just 10 days after its release. The disappointments of the fans can be obviously noticed. Daniel Ahmed made an analysis regarding GTA 5 and its properties. He has found out that over $700 million revenue was earned by the game for the past 12 months.
