Rockstar Games has seemingly gotten into contact with a terminally ill fan looking to play GTA 6 before its launch later this year on November 19, 2026.
That's according to a now deleted LinkedIn post from Ubisoft developer Anthony Armstrong, who appealed on behalf of a family member diagnosed with cancer and "given 6-12 months to live."
"The reason I am reaching out is that they are a huge GTA fan and, with this latest update, he may not be around long enough to actually get to see GTA 6 launch, best case scenario he will be leaving us the same month it does," Armstrong wrote, before hoping his family member could "have a chance to experience the game, before passing."
A later update on the post claimed Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick had reached out to put the family in touch with Rockstar Games, and a final update said, "We spoke to them today and got great news. That's all I can really say, but thank you all from the bottom of my heart." The post was likely deleted because of NDAs and such since Rockstar Games tends to be a fairly secretive company.
