Read previewBack-to-work mandates at Rockstar Games are prompting concerns that "Grand Theft Auto 6" might get a later release date than expected. In December, Rockstar Games announced that "GTA 6" would come out in 2025. Still, news that a "GTA 6" release date was so far in the future caused stock prices for Take Two to dip as much as 7% in December. Related storiesNow, Kotaku reported that sources close to the game's development say that progress is slowing and the game's release could "slip" into 2026. Some Rockstar employees told Aftermath they learned they would no longer be able to answer Slack messages and use other work communication tools from home.

But in the run-up to the release of "Grand Theft Auto VI," Rockstar, which adopted remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, has had several security issues to contend with. The Independent Workers Union of Great Britain (IWGB) said the decision by Rockstar came a year after 170 Rockstar workers signed a petition "opposing mandatory 3-day office work." Rockstar workers represented by the union accused the developer of "broken promises" and said they had concerns around a "heightened risk of overwork," which the company has been criticised for in the past.
