Delaying anticipated titles has become an industry tradition for the last couple of years, whether it's an AAA blockbuster or an Indie piece, you're talking about. However, that wasn't the case for Rockstar and its much-awaited title, GTA VI. Earlier in January, the Rockstar North Office faced a huge explosion at the office, leading everyone to believe a delay on GTA VI's release date, especially the physical copies.

Despite this major setback, Strauss Zelnick (CEO of Take-Two Interactive) has confirmed the GTA 6 November 19 launch date. Moreover, he added that GTA 6 marketing is also scheduled to begin this summer. Amidst a sea of positive news, let's take a look at everything that has been confirmed about GTA 6 so far.
