Rockstar Games has officially announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 will hit the shelves on May 26, 2026. In a playful twist, indie game publisher Devolver Digital has jumped on the bandwagon, announcing their own mysterious game set to launch on the very same day. This bold move showcases Devolver Digital's characteristic humor and ambition to make a mark amidst the anticipated frenzy of GTA 6's release.
Taking to X/Twitter, Devolver Digital humorously declared their intentions with the message, "You can’t escape us," alongside the confirmation of their game's release on May 26, 2026. This announcement follows their earlier pledge to launch a game coinciding with GTA 6's release date. Devolver Digital's library boasts a variety of acclaimed indie titles including Hotline Miami, Enter the Gungeon, The Messenger, Katana Zero, and Cult of the Lamb. Whether they will unveil a sequel or introduce a completely new title remains a tantalizing mystery.
You can’t escape us.

While Devolver Digital gears up for this audacious release, other projects in their pipeline, such as Baby Steps and Stick It to the Stickman, are slated to debut before the end of 2025. Additionally, Enter the Gungeon 2 and Human Fall Flat 2 are on the horizon for 2026, though developer No Brakes Games has explicitly stated that Human Fall Flat 2 will not be part of the May 26 showdown.
