Devolver Digital Dares to Launch Game on GTA 6 Release Day

Rockstar Games has officially confirmed the highly anticipated release date for Grand Theft Auto 6, set for May 26, 2026. In a playful nod to the upcoming blockbuster, indie publisher Devolver Digital wasted no time in announcing its own plans to release a mysterious new game on the exact same day.

Taking a humorous jab at Rockstar’s highly publicized release, Devolver Digital embraced the chaos of the moment with a bold marketing strategy. The company’s cryptic message, “You can’t escape us,” accompanied by the release date, suggests a direct challenge to the gaming giant. While details remain scarce, this move aligns with Devolver Digital’s reputation for promoting quirky, lesser-known titles alongside industry titans.

With a portfolio that includes cult classics like Hotline Miami, Enter the Gungeon, and Cult of the Lamb, Devolver Digital has carved a niche for itself in the gaming world. Although the identity of their May 26 release remains under wraps, fans can look forward to upcoming titles such as Baby Steps, Stick It to the Stickman, Enter the Gungeon 2, and Human Fall Flat 2. However, developer No Brakes Games has already clarified that Human Fall Flat 2 will not release on May 26, 2026.

As the gaming community eagerly anticipates Grand Theft Auto 6, Rockstar’s first numbered entry in the series since 2013, Devolver Digital is poised to bring its unique flair to the mix.
