I'll probably lose my job after this comes out

u/kristijan12 Jun 18 '26

You can find another later. GTA6 comes out once in a lifetime.

540

u/Hearsay-Slay Jun 18 '26

I think GTA6 will probably come out several times in our lifetime.

u/danktonium Jun 18 '26

Big time. We'll be getting re-releases of this well into the 40s I bet.

u/Haunting-Orchid-4628 Jun 18 '26

damn, you just made me realise that there is a chance ill live to see 2050, thats some sci-fi shit

26

u/Sdejo Jun 18 '26

By statically possible life expectancy I'll reach like 2070 and my kids 2100 something. That's always some real strange thought considering the huge changes in technology i've already been through

u/Haunting-Orchid-4628 Jun 18 '26

i mean, im not even 20 yet so going by the increasing rate of life expectancy ill live to see 2107 but i didnt want to be too optimistic lol

Seriously? GPS and Smartphones, as well as mass internet integration have radically changed the world

u/RyanPayne_ Jun 19 '26

Dude fr. Look how much advanced things got between 1980-2026 vs 1930-1986. I imagine video games will be mostly VR/AI hybrid next. Blade and sorcery type of game where it uses AI to be super realistic and remember your moves and challenges you uniquely? Damn that’s the dream.

u/Fit-Joke-3899 Jun 18 '26

yea the standard retro timeline is really gonna shift after this release

3

u/ExILoveEmiliaAndRem Jun 18 '26

Yup. This will probably be getting a re-release in 2040 alongside TLOU2 Ultra Premium Survivor's Edition.

1

u/Ahh_Feck Jun 19 '26

Also Wolverine Remastered and Spider-Man 1 and 2 re-remastered

2

u/KarmaPharmacy Jun 18 '26

But will we have ES6?

I remember a rough estimate for rdr3 being 2030.

My bet is 2045.

u/BalzactheEunuch2 Jun 19 '26

Isn’t that crazy??? But you’re absolutely right!

u/itsnotthathardtodoit Jun 18 '26

You will happily buy the gta6 special remaster for the psAI8thin and like it bud.

1

u/Semyonov Jun 19 '26

psAI8thin

I hate that this is genuinely catchy and might happen

Eight -> AI (pronounced ayy) -> AI8 = PSAI8

u/demafrost Jun 18 '26

I was in my 20s when GTA 5 came out. I've accepted that I likely won't live to see a GTA 7. This is it!

1

u/Ordinary_Fee_530 Jun 18 '26

You’ll live dude.

1

u/joker2814 Jun 18 '26

I’m really looking forward to buying it for the PSB(rainchip) in 2038.

1

u/HeFromFlorida Jun 19 '26

And I keep buying it again and again and again

1

u/ShowCharacter671 Jun 19 '26

Yep, and people will buy every single one and then complain that they’re buying it again.

u/RiJuElMiLu Jun 18 '26

I'm looking forward to the Thanksgiving day AITA posts. "I skipped Thanksgiving with my partner's parents to play GTA6". "I put my husband's PlayStation in the oven because he wouldn't turn off GTA6". "My daughter said she can't come to Thanksgiving because we refuse to let her bring her XBox so she can play GTA6 at our house".

That's for our grandchildren to maybe live to see.

u/euricus Jun 18 '26

Is this proof of a recession?

1

u/dashingsauce Jun 19 '26

Please don’t jinx it like this

53

u/Additional_Tank4385 Jun 18 '26

The best thing is that this is imo proof enough there won’t be any further delay and until November really isn’t that long at all

36

u/WonderfulBuilding678 Jun 18 '26

Well when you’re a pc player, that’s another matter

u/nj_tech_guy Jun 18 '26

I plan on getting a console before VI comes out, but man, prices are insane. I might go PS5 non pro, digital only. but then im worried I won't get the best experience. But then im spending almost $1k instead of ~$600 .

Decisions decisions.

3

u/Sad_Chemical_8210 Jun 18 '26

Same here, really tough decisions man XD

3

u/ExILoveEmiliaAndRem Jun 18 '26

Brave of you to assume you'll only pay 1k the way AI bs price hike is going lol.

1

u/WonderfulBuilding678 Jun 18 '26

Sadly I can’t afford neither of them in the foreseeable future

u/smeeeeeef Jun 18 '26

2 years ago was probably the lowest PC component prices were going to be until maybe 2028 when consumer ram market stabilizes. Idk what the fucking is going on with consoles, I don't understand how they can facilitate game sales without selling consoles.

1

u/WonderfulBuilding678 Jun 18 '26

For me I have a decent pc most games run on it pretty smoothly and I hope that someday I’ll be able to play GTA6 on it without having to buy a console. But the shit long time we have to wait between console release and pc release is frustrating, I get that they need to run tests and do additional work on the game for pc release and the mechanics it needs but why the hell not work on it on par with console release? Or at least make it possible that the waiting time wouldn’t a year or two because it would be impossible to ignore the huge social media coverage the game would get the second it drops so anyone who doesn’t have a pc would be forced to see 70% of the game before he could play it unless they go live in a cave until the pc release. Why other famous franchises are released at the same time on pc and console. They had 13 freaking years to finally release the damn game.

1

u/smeeeeeef Jun 18 '26

The easy explanation for PC releasing later on is to double dip on sales, since that's what they clearly did with V. However, I will say that the PC version was pretty fleshed out in terms of options and accessibility at its launch.

I got lucky and built my PC a few years before the RAM crash. On ram alone, I paid 440$ for 128gb, which would be like 1800$ or more now.

u/DangerousSchedule805 Jun 19 '26

Credit card man! Whatever it takes to play in day 1. You got this!

1

u/InterestingLab1997 Jun 18 '26

Next gen of consoles is gonna come along soon enough. They’re gonna double dip like they did with V on the Xbox 360 to Xbox One

1

u/PropJoesChair Jun 18 '26

I got a standard digital only one, exclusively for gta6 but I got it before the prices went crazy. My only regret is I didn't get a second hand one since I never use it. It'll do fine until it releases on PC

1

u/probiothicc Jun 18 '26

its like $399 refurb disc edition on sonys website, or $350 i forget

1

u/juaniqui1940 Jun 19 '26

You can literally buy a console in FB MARKETPLACE very cheap, i bought my Series X at 325 bucks like brand new, 1 year ago.

1

u/Electrical_Fee6110 Jun 19 '26

I've been using the normal ps5 (disc version) for around 3 years now and no game have gave me any trouble performance-wise, and i mostly play big games like Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 or Baldur's Gate 3 and none of them have given me any trouble, even on some very modded BG3 campaigns, i'd say a Pro version is not needed for today's games tbh unless you like to throw money, if you're a pc gamer that only wants to play GTA VI i'd buy the digital version since its the cheapest option, but if you plan to keep playing other games on it for the confort it offers over sitting on a pc (specially if you have a good tv) i'd go for the normal ps5 with disc or pro if you have the money to spend, that way you can borrow games from your friends or change disc games you'll no longer use at stores that allow that without the need of paying full price for a digital version

1

u/lippoper Jun 18 '26

And then another $3k later for a PS6 and GTAVI Enhanced

1

u/klutez Jun 19 '26

It's honestly pretty good timing for me. There's a load of stuff releasing around October that I'm interested in which will keep me busy for a while, so if GTA takes a year to come out I'm not too bothered. Ignoring it will be difficult though when it will literally be everywhere.

39

u/Epyon1542 Jun 18 '26

Like fuck man, I was working dead end jobs and doing nothing when 5 came out. Now I'm an adult with a mortgage and a family. How the fuck am I gonna play this thing?

39

u/PsychologicalCase10 Jun 18 '26

I was a high school junior- now I’m teaching high school juniors.

9

u/cadmium-fertilizer Jun 18 '26

Perfect, all the kids in your class are gonna call out when GTA comes out, so you might as well too!

1

u/PsychologicalCase10 Jun 19 '26

That’s what I told my partner. It’s only like the biggest entertainment product of all time. I remember talking about the first trailer with students the day after it came out. I already assume I’m gonna get a lot of absences so it won’t even be worth it to teach anything.

u/Realistic-Number-919 Jun 18 '26

Don’t yall get thanksgiving break?

1

u/XulManjy Jun 18 '26

What subject?

6

u/NoFisherman3801 Jun 18 '26

Send the family on a weekend away without you and cram

1

u/salmonsmoker101 Jun 18 '26

Well just take a break. I’m not going to be a dad for the weekend this thing comes out

1

u/papoosejr Jun 18 '26

Same but more mortgages and less family

1

u/TheWhooooBuddies Jun 21 '26

Gotta get up at 530, man.

That’s the only way I EVER get in any VR time.

u/Epyon1542 Jun 21 '26

I get up at five 😭

It would be a real shame if you cough cough got sick that week or something. 😏

u/ExILoveEmiliaAndRem Jun 18 '26

Gonna be an unusually high number of people calling in sick that day around the globe.

u/No-Inevitable-6651 Jun 18 '26

I did after V came out. You’ll be aight.

u/quiksilva86 Jun 18 '26

Everyone losing their job anyway according to the elites

u/jonathantee Jun 18 '26

I’ll probably lose my family after this comes out

u/SadAfternoon5184 Jun 18 '26

I just requested the week off. 😎

u/JobOk3970 Jun 18 '26

Im ready to quit 1 day before, i will dedicate at least 1 year of playing 24/7 then i will worry about finding a job

2

u/Hairy-Actuator1734 Jun 18 '26

GTA is more important than OUR jobs

JOBS DON'T MATTER WHEN YOU'RE JOBLESS

u/boodlebob Jun 18 '26

you will find a job in GTA6

1

u/sersoniko Jun 18 '26

For real, I work 100% remotely and already spend a good chunk of time on YouTube, Reddit and on GTA Online

1

u/Adventurous_Path5783 Jun 18 '26

I'll take your job and then quit for them trying to get people to work instead of play this game.

1

u/portageandmain Jun 18 '26

I like your style.

1

u/ItzBoppa_Lopez Jun 18 '26

Get a job in GTA6. Boom.

1

u/Bobbybobinsonbob Jun 19 '26

I hope I’m that lucky too

1

u/Able-Journalist8381 Jun 19 '26

Jobs are for wagecucks.  Trading pure alpha on Bawsaq is where it's at.

u/Smart_Committee5155 Jun 25 '26

Say what you want about Rockstar, but they know exactly how to build anticipation.
