GTA 6 \u2013 maybe Take-Two will accidentally leak its release date (Rockstar Games)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Take-Two has accidentally revealed the release date of Mafia: The Old Country and in so doing has helped to narrow down the GTA 6<\/a> release date.<\/p>\n

Although no one will admit it outright, other publishers are terrified of GTA 6 and the effect it\u2019ll have on game sales of other titles this year.<\/p>\n

The Switch 2<\/a> releasing in June, which is very unusual for a new console, is likely Nintendo wanting to avoid any crossover \u2013 since GTA 6 is going to eat up every bit of mainstream games coverage once it comes out. There\u2019s also reports that several big name games will be delayed<\/a> depending on when exactly GTA 6 is released.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s assumed it will launch this autumn, but Rockstar Games<\/a> owner Take-Two has said they\u2019re leaving the second trailer, which will likely reveal the release date, to as late as possible<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The only way to guess at when it might launch is to consider what other games Take-Two have out this year, since obviously they won\u2019t want to cannibalise their own sales.<\/p>\n

Borderlands 4<\/a> is out on September 23, but it\u2019s been impossible to say whether that will be before or after GTA 6 (although one can assume it\u2019s not within at least two weeks of it either side).<\/p>\n

But now we know when Take-Two\u2019s Mafia: The Old Country will be out, thanks to an accidental reveal on the game\u2019s Steam page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The fact that the information was quickly removed suggests that not only was it true, but it wasn\u2019t supposed to be known at this time, with Insider Gaming<\/a> reporting that the original text said: \u2018Mafia: The Old Country is available August 8, 2025. Pre-order now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC via Steam, and stay tuned to the official Mafia website for more information.\u2019<\/p>\n
