Why do games get delayed?
Game development is a complex process, often taking many years with huge teams. Delays, like the potential one for GTA 6, happen when developers need more time to fix bugs, refine gameplay, or add features to meet high expectations. Rushing a game can lead to a poor experience, so studios often prioritise quality over hitting an initial deadline.
