In today's Daily Fix:Grand Theft Auto 6's delay disappointed a lot of gamers, but probably disappointed retailers even more. Analysts at Ampere are suggesting that the delay will cost the games industry around $2.7 billion dollars. The money isn't gone, however, merely moved to next year when GTA 6 drops on May 26. Speaking of that date, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick is confident that Rockstar Games can hit that date. Let's hope so—there's $2.7 billion riding on it. And finally, Nintendo will make a return to the Gamescom show in Germany this year. Nintendo skipped last year's show, but with a new console and a handful of brand new first-party games coming this year, they have plenty to show off.

In today's Daily Fix:Red Dead Redemption 2 could be getting a Nintendo Switch 2 port, according to sources close to Rockstar Games. The port would be the first for a Nintendo console, with the first Red Dead Redemption getting a Switch 1 port in 2023, 13 years after it first debuted on the PS3 and Xbox 360. The RDR2 Switch 2 port would also coincide with a current-gen PS5/Series X|S port. In other news, Fortnite's Star Wars crossover event just dropped an AI-powered Darth Vader that reacts to what you say to it. And of course, gamers have found a way to make Vader make some NSFW words (which was quickly patched out). And finally, Hideo Kojima doesn't want mortality to stop him from releasing games. He's setting up a plan to leave his studio, Kojima Productions, with some unfinished game ideas in the event of his passing.

What’s Inside: GTA 6 release date pushed to May 2026 Gamers and developers react to the massive delay How one trailer broke the internet and office productivity Why other game studios are shifting their release timelines too Episode Description:It’s official—Grand Theft Auto 6 isn’t coming out anytime soon. After building major hype with a cinematic trailer, Rockstar Games has pushed the release date back to May 2026, sending shockwaves through the gaming community. The team dives into the chaos this delay is causing, from disappointed fans (like Jubal, who watched the trailer four times thinking it was coming this month) to rival game developers now scrambling to adjust their own launch plans. This isn’t just another game—it’s one of the most anticipated releases in video game history. The crew chats about why GTA6 is such a big deal, how long it’s been since the last version, and what makes this franchise so iconic. Plus, there’s confusion, snacks, and a whole lot of speculation about whether anyone will get any work done once the game finally drops.

I spent a week on the Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady cruise ship, which actually has an impressive board game collection on board. Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed to May of 2026 in a tradition that has been happening since GTA3. EA lays off 300 employees and cancelled the upcoming game in the Titanfall universe. Polygon has been sold from Vox Media to Valnet, and lays off 2/3rd of their staff. Valnet claims that it will still be the quality that is best for Polygon, despite all of its other sites being click-farms. Fandom abruptly shut down all Giant Bomb livestreaming after sending new brand guidelines making everything PG, which caused some influential people to leave the outlet. Unfortunately, my DNS servers went down half way through the show so the show is a little bit shorter and disjointed. (I merely rebooted my router right after going off the air and everything was fine.)

Jurandir Filho, Felipe Mesquita e Evandro de Freitas batem um papo sobre o segundo trailer de "GTA 6". A Rockstar Games liberou o vídeo alguns dias depois de anunciar o adiamento do jogo para 2026. O estúdio confirmou que todas as cenas exibidas no novo trailer foram capturadas diretamente de um PlayStation 5, sem uso de PCs ou modelos aprimorados como o PS5 Pro. E o vídeo é composto por partes iguais de gameplay e cutscenes. É realmente possível? Qual o limite da Rockstar? É o maior hype da história dos videogames? O que esperar da dupla Jason e Lucia?

We're back talking about the brand new trailer for GTA VI among other things in the industry right now.

Grand Theft Auto III is a 2001 an open-world action-adventure game developed by Rockstar Games and it had a profound impact on both gaming and popular culture. Its success cemented video games as a dominant form of entertainment and storytelling, and paved the way for future blockbuster franchises. The game was also a technological milestone The post Grand Theft Auto III on the Dreamcast with Falco Girgis and Stef Kornilios Mitsis Poiitidis appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

GTA VI took over the news across two weeks, and all with a delay and a new trailer. The Thunderbolts* have a new name, and I have a review. Plus Xbox pulls unexpected shenanigans, Ecco the Dolphin is returning, and Art Imitates life, well the other way around as the real Conclave begins. Plus Andor takes it to the next level, while still keeping it very Star Wars.

MUSICDavid Lee Roth returned to the stage Saturday for his first show since March 20th, 2020 when he opened for KISS in Lubbock, Texas. And this came after he insisted in 2022 that he was retiring. Appearing at the M3 festival in Columbia, Maryland, he said, "We've reached the end of my first retirement. How many retirements did Rocky have, nine?" Still lacking in the vocal department, Roth delivered 16-song set of all Van Halen songs. Helping him and his four-piece band present the songs were four male background singers.Roth has previously announced one other show, September 12th at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, California, but he's just announced a tour that starts on July 31st in Hollywood, Florida and runs through September 14th in Napa, California.

The original plan was to release the game this fall, but Rockstar Games now says they need extra time “to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve.” Fans of the franchise are, of course, disappointed with the news, especially since the first Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer was unveiled in December of 2023. That's a lot of anticipation and enthusiasm. And now, there's going to be about a year more of waiting.

Nog geen week na het slechte nieuws dat GTA VI is uitgesteld naar 26 mei 2026 is er ook goed nieuws. Rockstar Games bracht vanmiddag namelijk trailer 2 uit van […]

There is no bigger franchise in the video game business than Grand Theft Auto by Rockstar Games. So naturally, fans of open-world criminal mayhem descend into wild dot-connecting in the years before each hotly-anticipated release. The next installment, GTA 6, has been delayed and is now slated for release on May 26th of 2026. This is despite many assurances from Rockstar that everything was on track for the game to come out in 2025. Alas, this will be another Christmas without an ultra-violent crime simulator wrapped beneath the pine tree. Sad! But at least Rockstar's long silence gave us some great theories. Rockstar's trademark hush-hush routine has turned GTA fandom into a sweaty detective bureau: Reddit sleuths pore over patent filings, numerologists map release dates to moon phases, and anonymous “insiders” drop breadcrumbs. In this episode we sift the signal from the speculation and ponder whether weaponized silence is part of the new marketing playbook.

Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed until next year. This explains why we haven't heard much about the official release date. And the game will almost absolutely cost $100 before DLC. And you'll probably pay it.

Wegen der riesigen technologischen Fortschritte in der Welt der Künstlichen Intelligenz bangen viele Menschen um ihre berufliche Zukunft - und das nicht erst seit vorgestern, sondern bereits seit Jahren, als die KI-Revolution noch in ihren Kinderschuhen stand. Zu diesen bedrohten Berufsgruppen gehören insbesondere auch die Kreativschaffenden, die als SynchronsprecherInnen, Motion-Capture-SchauspielerInnen oder auch als klassische KünstlerInnen um die Zukunft ihrer Arbeitsplätze fürchten müssen. In manchen Ländern ist diese Furcht längst in Trotz und Wut umgeschlagen: Seit vielen Monaten bestreiken so zum Beispiel die US-amerikanische "Federation of Television" und die "Screen Actors Guild" Teile der Unterhaltungsindustrie und kämpfen um ihre eigenen Urheberrechte. Konsequenzen dieses "Video Game Strikes" erreichen dabei längst auch die SpielerInnen hierzulande: Weil unter anderem SprecherInnen und Motion-Capture-KünslterInnen fehlen, müssen Releases von Großproduktionen immer wieder verschoben worden - zuletzt traf es wohl auch Rockstar Games, die die Veröffentlichung von GTA 6 nun ins nächste Jahr verlegen mussten. Lynne Glaner ist seit 2022 hauptberuflich Synchronsprecherin und damit Teil dieses Konflikts, der zwischen KünstlerInnen und Produktionsstudios schwelt. Sie steht seit 2023 mit Gastgeber Dom Schott im Kontakt, um ihm immer wieder von den neusten Entwicklungen in ihrer Branche zu berichten. Nun hat die KI-Revolution eine derart heiße Phase erreicht, dass sich beide zum Gespräch verabredet haben, um ausführlich über den Stand der Synchro-Branche angesichts der sich rasant weiterentwickelnden KI-Technologie zu sprechen - und sich die Frage zu stellen: wohin wird all das noch führen?

In today's Daily Fix:Grand Theft Auto is officially delayed to May of 2026. Fans are likely pretty disappointed in the news, but it's not entirely unexpected as they haven't shown anything of the game since its first trailer in 2023. But you know who's probably more disappointed? Take-Two Interactive stockholders. The company, who owns GTA developer Rockstar Games, took a hit in its share price after the announcement, but they're looking to bounce back with other game releases this year, including Borderlands 4. In other news, Hollow Knight: Silksong fans are a little confused at some official art from the game that appears to feature protagonist Hornet...undressing? And finally, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is such a hit that even French President Emmanuel Macron has heard about it.

After years of rumors, the Gears Of War Collection has become a bit of a running gag in the Xbox community. If it happens, great. If it doesn't, we never fully believed in it anyway. This week, we have Jez Corden to thank because it made for one of our fastest evolving stories mid-show! Starting off as a discussion of whether or not the Gears Of War Collection would ever happen, we quickly learned it is happening and... it won't have multiplayer. Is this a major dealbreaker for Xbox fans? Naturally, the Dukes debate, but the real question after assessing the early Forza Horizon 5 sales data is if it will matter to those playing on other platforms. Forza Horizon 5 is already beating out hot products with full marketing campaigns that are set to hit the market. Most stunning of all is that despite amassing 40+ million players and being available on multiple platforms for years, Forza Horizon 5's early access edition is the lead seller. It says a lot about how Xbox as a platform is viewed versus their content. So, let's dive in!
