How the Fans are Reacting to the Post?
Most of the fans have expressed their anger over the whole incident, and a lot of them are asking others not to believe in such rumors and wait for an official confirmation from Rockstar Games. Though, most of these rumors are fuelled by Rockstar’s silence over GTA 6 since the release of the first official trailer for the game, and this has woven a whole new web of leaks around the game. You would be surprised to know that some of the fans have reacted in this way over this release date rumor: A user ‘Rino’ said, “It feels like everyone is gonna run wild with predictions and rumors, some real, some made up, and so many will react violently whether its due to the excessive amount of made-up stories or to cope with the idea that the game may need much more time.” Another user Twan posted “and it doesn't matter how long it takes, everyone will be still playing when it gets released, delay or no delay”. So, it looks like that the GTA 6 fans are pretty okay with the rumors around the dealy in release, and they are actually looking forward to some official information coming directly from Rockstar Games around the delay in release date, before they start panicking over the whole issue.
