Rockstar Confirms GTA 6 Release Date, Begins Hiring Testers Rockstar Games has confirmed that the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 will not face another delay and is set to launch on November 19, 2026, as previously announced. This follows the company’s repeated assurances from its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, that a further postponement is unlikely. Earlier concerns about a potential delay into 2027 were dismissed by Take-Two CEO Strauss Zvavu, who emphasized the game’s development timeline remains on track. The confirmation comes as Rockstar initiates its final testing phase for GTA 6 by recruiting testers for its QA department. A LinkedIn post by Priyanka Mourya, Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist at Rockstar, announced a recruitment event on April 18, 2026, in Bangalore, India. The event will focus on hiring testers to join the team and contribute to upcoming projects. Mourya highlighted the opportunity for candidates passionate about gaming to work on “exciting game projects” alongside a “dynamic team.” The hiring event underscores Rockstar’s progress toward completing the game, as QA testing typically occurs after the main development phase. Testers will play a critical role in identifying and resolving bugs, ensuring the game runs smoothly at launch. While the job post does not explicitly mention GTA 6, industry observers suggest the recruitment is directly tied to the game’s upcoming release. Some skepticism persists, as the positions are based in Rockstar’s India studio, raising questions about whether they could relate to other projects. Take-Two has also addressed rumors about the game’s physical release, confirming that such claims are false.#bangalore #rockstar_games #take_two_interactive #strauss_zvavu #priyanka_mourya
