Grand Theft Auto 6 releases on November 19, and a lot of people are very excited to play some kind of online mode, according to a new study. The only problem is that GTA 6 is a strictly single-player game and has no online mode, at least not one that Rockstar has talked about yet.
Research firm Piper Sandler recently polled 9,000 teenagers, with 90% saying they intend to play GTA Online. It would be shocking if GTA 6 doesn't eventually have an online mode, but the company has not said anything about that.
Product listings for GTA 6 at retailers make it clear that the game is a "single-player experience," so it's not something Rockstar is trying to be coy about.
The poll also found that 40% of respondents said they planned to make additional in-game purchases.
Additionally, the survey found that 70% of respondents who own a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S plan to buy GTA 6. Of those, 55% said they are planning to buy GTA immediately, and 15% said they would wait several months.
Before this, Circana reported that nearly 1 in 3 console and PC gamers in the US plan to buy GTA 6; that's the highest purchase intent that Circana has ever measured.
Analyst James Callahan reiterated a $290 price target on Take-Two's stock. After getting crushed so far in 2026, Take-Two stock today stands at about $210/share (after a huge rally today, November 4).
It remains to be seen what Rockstar may do with the existing GTA Online for GTA 6 after GTA 6 comes out--whatever the case, gamers are going to be mad .
