The release of GTA 6 could be such a big deal that some fans are already thinking about taking time off work just to play it.

When popular games come out, it’s always an exciting moment, especially when they generate the same midnight-release buzz that we see with the most anticipated titles.

There’s no doubt GTA 6 will have that kind of excitement. The reveal trailer alone created massive hype.

But, as of now, no one really knows when the game will launch, so booking time off work might be a little too soon.

That hasn’t stopped fans from treating the game’s release as a big event. A recent Reddit post asked if the launch of GTA 6 would be “as important as national or international holidays.”

The post also mentioned how many people would likely take days off work or school just to enjoy the game. It asked, “Will you be one of those people?”

Unsurprisingly, many fans said “yes.” It wouldn’t be shocking if some businesses end up short-staffed or even closed on the release day because people want to play the game.

One fan even suggested that GTA 6’s launch might be “more important” than big holidays like Christmas for some gamers.

Another fan said, “Honestly, I’ll probably use some vacation days to dive into the game. It’s going to be a huge event, and I’m sure we’ll see long lines at places like GameStop.”

As for when GTA 6 will actually be released, there are rumors that it might not make its planned 2025 launch, but we hope that’s not true.

Whenever GTA 6 does come out, one thing is certain: it will be a day to remember, and Rockstar Games will likely be the only business thriving that day.
