Games sure have been getting delayed a lot over the last several years, and that continues in 2026. The game you've been looking forward to playing might just not be ready by its initially announced launch date. To help keep everything organized, we've made a list of every game delayed right now, including those with delays announced weeks, months, or even years ago. Once a game has been released, it will be removed from this list. 
Grand Theft Auto VI We all knew this was coming, if we're really being honest with ourselves. Initially planned to launch later this year, GTA 6 was later pushed back to May 2026 before again being delayed a full six months to November 19, 2026. Rockstar cited a need to add more polish as the reason for the delay. Featured in this image
