Resolution Criteria

This market resolves to whichever game Rockstar Games officially announces as their next major release following GTA 6's launch on November 19, 2026. Resolution is based on an official announcement from Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive identifying the next game in active development. The market resolves to the first announced title, not necessarily the first released. If Rockstar announces multiple projects simultaneously, the market resolves to whichever one is explicitly stated as the next major project. GTA Online content updates and ports do not count as the next game release.

Background

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick revealed that Rockstar might have more in the pipeline beyond GTA 6. Speculation about Rockstar's next project centers on several possibilities: Bully, an open-world game set in a boarding school that has been a cult classic since its 2006 release, Red Dead Redemption 3, or an entirely new IP. It's been over a decade since Rockstar released a game that doesn't belong to its two biggest franchises.

Considerations

Rockstar's development cycles are notoriously long. Around 5 years passed between GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, then around 8 years between RDR 2 and GTA 6. The company may prioritize extended GTA 6 Online support before committing full resources to the next major title, potentially delaying any announcement for years after launch.
