Journalist Jason Schreier has publicly responded to rumors claiming GTA VI was delayed again - this time supposedly to 2027.

According to Schreier, the entire story was based on his comments being taken out of context and recycled into sensational headlines. He made it clear that he never reported a new delay.

Schreier Calls It “One of the Dumbest Rumors”

"Grand Theft Auto VI being delayed to 2027 is one of the dumbest rumors I’ve ever seen... my quotes were chewed up and spat back out by the internet garbage-processing machine."

Schreier also said it was surreal watching the rumor spread, especially because people were treating him as the source, even though he never claimed the game had been pushed to 2027.

Take-Two Stock Took a Hit

The misinformation quickly affected the market. Reports claim Take-Two’s stock dropped, showing how sensitive investors are to anything connected to GTA VI - even cautious development commentary can trigger real financial reactions.

This situation is another reminder that GTA VI rumors don’t just create hype - they can literally move the market.
