According to fresh rumors making the rounds, Rockstar’s long-awaited GTA 6 could skip physical discs entirely at launch. Instead, the game might drop as a digital-only release when it finally hits shelves – or rather, digital storefronts – sometime in 2025.

The reason? Leaks. By avoiding physical distribution early on, Rockstar may be trying to reduce the chances of gameplay footage or story elements leaking ahead of release. With a game of this scale and hype level, it wouldn’t be surprising if they’re doing everything possible to keep things under wraps.

Physical versions of the game could still be coming later down the line, but there’s no clear info on exactly when. Some insiders suggest a delay of a few weeks, while others believe disc-based editions might not arrive until 2026 or beyond.

If true, this move would mark a pretty major shift for Rockstar – and it could be a sign of where the industry is heading as digital sales continue to dominate. Still, until we hear something official, take it all with a healthy dose of skepticism.
