The news of another delay for "Grand Theft Auto VI" not only disappointed players worldwide but also unexpectedly reached the Polish parliament, where an MP declared it a "huge scandal," turning the unreleased game into a political talking point.
Witold Tumanowicz, a Member of Parliament from Poland's right-wing Confederation Liberty and Independence party, stated during a recent parliamentary session that "An hour ago, Rockstar Games announced that 'GTA 6' would be delayed until next year. This is very disturbing news, and it's a huge scandal." He jokingly added, "If people don't take to the streets to protest when something like this happens, I really don't know what to say."
His remarks immediately sparked heated discussion among media and netizens. While some Polish media outlets criticized the statement as "absurd," it was met with widespread amusement on social media.
One netizen commented, "Finally, someone is discussing truly important issues in parliament." Paweł Szrot, an MP from the ruling Law and Justice party, also chimed in, stating, "I respect such a statement, and I just hope the 'Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord' DLC won't be delayed again."
The highly anticipated "Grand Theft Auto VI," originally slated for a Fall 2025 release, has now been officially pushed back to November 19, 2026. With 12 years having passed since the launch of its predecessor, "Grand Theft Auto V," fan anticipation has only intensified. Rockstar Games stated in a press release that the delay was to "allow the team to complete the game with the quality players deserve."
