Despite being surprised and disappointed by GTA 6's delays, the CEO of Tiktok finally agreed with Rockstar's decision.

The GTA 6 development team had come to the conclusion that the release of the game should be delayed. Following this decision, a Rockstar executive called Tik-Too CEO Strauss Zelnick to inform him of the game's delay, which ended up happening twice.

First, it was announced to Rockstar that the release of GTA 6 should be delayed until May 2026. A few months later, the company once again asked for an extension of the development deadline and postponed the release of the game to November. This second request greatly surprised Zelnik.

In response to this, he said:

are you kidding Please tell me you're kidding me.

However, after the reasons for this decision were explained to Zelnik, he also accepted the necessity of the delay. Jennifer Kolbe, director of Rockstar Company, said that they were lucky that Zelnik was so reasonable; Because many managers may say to the development team in such a situation: "You better find a way to release the game yourself."

He explained that fortunately, the development team is not in a position to have to launch the game before it is ready; A situation that, according to him, happens to many game development teams and is an unpleasant experience.

The GTA game series has an adult age rating, and it is necessary for families to supervise the access of children and teenagers to them.
