Speculation continues to swirl around Grand Theft Auto VI, one of the most anticipated video games of all time. Rumours of a Rockstar Games appearance at Gamescom were fuelled this week when the company’s logo was spotted on Take-Two Interactive’s booth. However, Rockstar has not confirmed any showcase at the event, and the release date remains set for May 2026.

Gamescom rumours

Fans noticed Rockstar’s branding among Take-Two’s displays at Gamescom, sparking hopes that new footage or details might be revealed. But there has been no official confirmation that GTA 6 will feature at the event.


The most recent update from Rockstar came in May, when the studio dropped the second trailer, fresh screenshots, artwork and an overhauled website. That followed the announcement that the release had been pushed back from autumn 2025 to 26 May 2026.

Release date confirmed

Take-Two, Rockstar’s parent company, reiterated that date during its quarterly earnings call on 7 August. With at least nine months still to go, leaks, speculation and fan theories continue to dominate discussion around the title.

GTA online bonuses

In the meantime, Rockstar has launched new incentives for Grand Theft Auto Online players. Those who log in before 17 September will receive £800,000 in-game cash, while GTA+ subscribers will be awarded an additional £800,000, bringing the total to £1.6m. Bonuses are deposited within 72 hours of logging in.

Rockstar also announced limited-time boosts, with triple rewards on Export Requests and double rewards on all Simeon Contact Missions. Players who complete all Premium Deluxe Repo Work missions before the deadline will unlock a £400,000 in-game bonus.

Staying updated

With Rockstar staying tight-lipped until closer to launch, the GTA community is left to sift through teasers, rumours and occasional updates from the studio. Fans eager for official news will likely need to wait until 2026 for the next major reveal.

Mega Zeraora set to become Pokémon Legends: Z-A’s toughest challenge yet

Highlights

  • Mega Zeraora arrives as part of the Mega Dimension DLC
  • New DLC includes Pokémon that can exceed level 100
  • Game Freak hints at a higher level cap, possibly reaching 165 or more
  • Players must purchase the $29.99 DLC to access Mega Zeraora
  • Additional Mega evolutions and bonus items available through pre-orders

A formidable new mega evolution

Mega Zeraora is the newest figurehead of the Mega Dimension DLC for Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and early information suggests it may be one of the hardest Mega evolutions to obtain. The electric-type creature, already known for its speed and power, receives a dramatic boost in its Mega form, but accessing it will require players to dive into the toughest content the game has offered so far.

The Mega Dimension section of the game is designed as a marked step up in difficulty. Trailers show monsters surpassing level 100, with some pushing as high as level 164. Game Freak has not yet confirmed the final cap, though figures around 165 or even 200 have been widely speculated. This elevated challenge means players will need to assemble a strong team before attempting to secure Mega Zeraora.
