रॉकस्टार ने ग्रैंड थेफ्ट ऑटो 6 से 26 मई, 2026 को देरी कर दी है। यह गिरावट 2025 से बाहर था।

एक बयान में, रॉकस्टार ने खेल के लिए महत्वपूर्ण देरी के लिए माफी मांगी, उम्मीद है कि सभी समय का सबसे बड़ा मनोरंजन लॉन्च होगा।

“हमें बहुत खेद है कि यह आपकी अपेक्षा से अधिक बाद में है,” रॉकस्टार ने कहा। “एक नई ग्रैंड थेफ्ट ऑटो के आसपास की रुचि और उत्साह वास्तव में हमारी पूरी टीम के लिए विनम्र है। हम आपके समर्थन और आपके धैर्य के लिए धन्यवाद देना चाहते हैं क्योंकि हम खेल को खत्म करने के लिए काम करते हैं।

“हमारे द्वारा जारी किए गए प्रत्येक खेल के साथ, लक्ष्य हमेशा आपकी अपेक्षाओं को पार करने और पार करने के लिए रहा है, और ग्रैंड थेफ्ट ऑटो VI कोई अपवाद नहीं है। हम आशा करते हैं कि आप समझेंगे कि हमें इस अतिरिक्त समय की आवश्यकता है कि आप जिस गुणवत्ता की अपेक्षा और योग्य हैं, उसे वितरित करने के लिए इस अतिरिक्त समय की आवश्यकता है।

“हम जल्द ही आपके साथ अधिक जानकारी साझा करने के लिए उत्सुक हैं।”

रॉकस्टार का बयान कम से कम GTA 6 रिलीज़ की तारीख की पुष्टि करता है, लेकिन कोई नई संपत्ति जारी नहीं की गई थी, जिसका अर्थ है कि ट्रेलर 2 का इंतजार जारी है। लॉन्च प्लेटफॉर्म का कोई उल्लेख भी नहीं है, जो कुछ पहले से ही अनुमान लगा रहे हैं कि पीसी पर रिलीज होने के साथ -साथ PlayStation 5 और Xbox Series X और S को मई 2026 में PCTA 6 और Xbox Series X और S के लिए दरवाजा खुला छोड़ देता है।

रॉकस्टार मूल कंपनी के मालिक स्ट्रॉस ज़ेलनिक ने कहा, “देखिए, हमेशा फिसलन का खतरा होता है और मुझे लगता है कि जैसे ही आप पूरी तरह से शब्द कहते हैं, आप जिन चीजों को कहते हैं। वह फरवरी में वापस आ गया था।

आज, 2 मई को जारी निवेश समुदाय को एक नए नोट में टिप्पणी करते हुए, ज़ेलनिक ने कहा कि उन्होंने GTA 6 को टेक-टू के 2027 वित्तीय वर्ष में देरी के फैसले का समर्थन किया।

“हम ग्रैंड थेफ्ट ऑटो VI के लिए अपनी रचनात्मक दृष्टि का एहसास करने के लिए अतिरिक्त समय लेने वाले रॉकस्टार गेम का समर्थन करते हैं, जो दर्शकों की अपेक्षाओं से अधिक है, जो एक ग्राउंडब्रेकिंग, ब्लॉकबस्टर मनोरंजन अनुभव होने का वादा करता है।

“जब हम अपने शीर्षकों के आंदोलन को गंभीरता से लेते हैं और ग्रैंड थेफ्ट ऑटो VI के लिए विशाल और गहरी वैश्विक प्रत्याशा की सराहना करते हैं, तो हम उत्कृष्टता के लिए अपनी प्रतिबद्धता में स्थिर रहते हैं। जैसा कि हम अपनी अभूतपूर्व पाइपलाइन जारी करना जारी रखते हैं, हम अपने व्यवसाय में विकास की एक बहु-वर्ष की अवधि और हमारे शेयरधारकों के लिए मूल्य बढ़ाने की उम्मीद करते हैं।”

GTA 6 की देरी 2025 की दूसरी छमाही को कई अन्य खेलों में खोलती है, शायद अब सफल होने के लिए अधिक सांस लेने वाले कमरे के साथ। गियरबॉक्स के बॉर्डरलैंड्स 4, ईए के बैटलफील्ड, बुंगी के मैराथन, और सोनी के भूत ऑफ योती की पसंद कोई-संदेह राहत के संकेत के लिए कोई संदेह नहीं होगा। निंटेंडो, जो स्विच 2 को जारी करने की तैयारी कर रहा है, निश्चित रूप से GTA 6 की देरी से भी लाभ होगा।

अन्य डेवलपर्स और प्रकाशक, जिन्होंने शायद GTA 6 के अपेक्षित गिरावट 2025 रिलीज़ विंडो के आगे लॉन्च करने के लिए अपने खेल को शुरू किया, निश्चित रूप से बहुत खुश नहीं होगा। और यदि आपके पास अगले साल या उसके आसपास लॉन्च के लिए एक गेम की योजना थी, तो आपको शायद अपनी रिलीज़ रणनीति पर पुनर्विचार करना होगा।

The Pokémon Trading Card Game shows no signs of slowing down in 2025. Whether you’re a competitive player, a casual collector, or someone who’s just dropped way too much money on framed booster art, this year’s TCG lineup is going all in—new mechanics, nostalgic reprints, and plenty of chances to chase that cardboard high.

It’s already shaping up to be a huge year, so here’s everything we know about the upcoming Pokémon TCG releases in 2025. And yes, IGN will be tracking all the best deals and preorder links, both here and on socials at @IGNDeals.

Upcoming Pokémon TCG Sets In 2025

Things really kick off on May 30 with Destined Rivals. This set brings back Trainer’s Pokémon, reintroduces Team Rocket for another round of villainous fun, and includes some of the best card art we’ve seen in ages. If you’re into flashy collectibles or just enjoy the feeling of cardboard power coursing through your veins, this one’s for you.

Later in the year, Pokémon is tying its TCG releases into the upcoming Legends: Z-A game with a set focused on Mega Evolution Pokémon ex. Exact release dates are still under wraps, but it’s already building serious buzz—and will almost certainly follow the same high-demand, low-availability pattern. Read on to find out more on both, and check out the latest TCG stock updates just below as well.

Latest Stock Updates

Amazon and Walmart have once again restocked with some cool Pokémon TCG products, such as Surging Sparks Booster Bundles and Twilight Masquerade ETBs. We also recently saw the Charizard Premium Set in stock at Sam’s Club, with memberships there dropping to just $20. as well.

While some of the new listings are over-priced, Surging Sparks card prices have plummeted last month for the most part, with the Pikachu ex SIR dropping from a lofty $400+ price point to under $300.

Destined Rivals – Releases May. 30, 2025

Pokémon TCG’s next big release, Destined Rivals, is almost here, and I’m already prepping my shelf space and emotionally budgeting like I won’t blow it all on an Elite Trainer Box I absolutely do not need.

The full release is scheduled for May 30, 2025. That’s when all the sealed products will ship and hit shelves, assuming there’s any left, though The Pokemon Company has been seemingly tackling ongoing stock shortages. Between May 17 and 25, select stores will host pre-release events featuring Build & Battle boxes and early access tournaments. You should check with your local league store now if you want in. And by “check,” I mean probably bribe them with snacks.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A: Mega Evolution Pokémon ex – TBC

Pokémon Company has already announced they’re kicking off the Legends: Z-A era by introducing Mega Evolutions to the TCG.

“We’re looking forward to a ‘Mega’ year as we prepare for the launch of the Pokémon Legends: Z-A video game featuring the mechanic, as well as the introduction of Mega Evolution Pokémon ex to the best-selling Pokémon TCG.”

Pokémon Legends: Z-A arrives in late 2025, with no confirmed release date, but we’re expecting the new cards, expansions, or sets to release at a similar time. Albeit scoring some of these at release will probably be as easy as picking as picking up a Switch 2 preorder.

Journey Together – Released Mar. 28 2025

It’s about time we got a set like this. Bringing back nostalgic Trainer’s Pokémon cards from the Gym Heroes era. N’s Zoroark ex and Lillie’s Clefairy ex end the chaos of endless secret arts for a more curated, collectible experience.

With just 16 Pokémon ex, 11 illustration rares, and three hyper rare gold cards, it’s easier to track what’s worth pulling without feeling like you need a PhD in pack odds.

Fancy snagging the Enhanced Booster Display Box with its bonus N’s Reshiram illustration rare or pull Iono’s Bellibolt ex? This set screams nostalgia with a new coat of paint.

What Makes Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together Special?

The Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together expansion is a nod to fans who’ve been in it for a long time. Remember Gym Heroes?

This set revives the much-loved Trainer’s Pokémon cards, spotlighting the bond between iconic Trainers and their Pokémon.

Cards like N’s Zoroark ex, Hop’s Zacian ex, and Iono’s Bellibolt ex aren’t just cool to look at; they call back to the late ’90s and early ’00s Pokémania. We’re all for that here.

What’s even better? This expansion ditches the overload of secret rares that made recent sets feel overwhelming.

Instead, Journey Together keeps things tight, making tracking what you want to pull easier. Whether it’s an illustration rare, a special art card, or one of those hyper-rare gold beauties, you can finally open packs without feeling like you need a flowchart to figure out what’s in the set.

Why Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together Is a Must-Have

This set gets it. It brings back the Trainer-Pokémon connection we loved in Gym Heroes, keeps the card pool manageable, and nails the art on every level. There is no fluff or filler, just a solid mix of fun cards to collect and play with.

Whether you’re in it for the pulls, the gameplay, or the nostalgia, Journey Together is worth your time (and cash). Mark your calendar for March 28, and start clearing some binder space now; you’ll need it.

Rare Cards and Collector’s Highlights

If you’re into collecting, this set hits the sweet spot. It’s got 16 Pokémon ex, six unique illustrations rares, and just three hyper rare gold cards, which means you won’t have to mortgage your house chasing every rarity. And the artwork? Illustrating rares like N’s Zoroark ex will look incredible in your binder.

Pokémon Center’s Enhanced Booster Display Box is the one to grab for preorder exclusives. It comes with a bonus N’s Reshiram illustration rare card—a little extra flex for your collection.

Prismatic Evolutions – Released Jan. 17 2025

Prismatic Evolutions, kicked off 2025, and it’s all about Eevee and its many evolutions. This set is doing things differently, which is probably why stock sells out as soon as it comes in.

This is another 151 situation, but there’s plenty of stock refeshes coming throughout 2025. You won’t find these cards in the usual booster packs.

Instead, they’ll be released in boxed sets throughout the year, each packed full of exclusive cards celebrating Eevee and friends. With over 175 cards, including unique designs and new game mechanics, Prismatic Evolutions is shaping to be a hit with collectors and competitive players alike.

What Makes Prismatic Evolutions Special?

This set brings some new gameplay tricks and visually striking designs. The big attraction is the debut of Stellar Tera Pokémon ex cards, which showcase Eevee and each of its evolutions with Terastal-inspired art.

These aren’t just nice to look at—they come with moves that need multiple energy types to activate, encouraging players to build balanced, flexible decks. And for the first time, Eevee’s ex card can evolve into other ex forms, giving trainers even more options to play with.

Collectors will appreciate some cool new reverse holo designs featuring Poké Ball and Master Ball patterns that pop on any card. And if you’re into rare cards, six ACE SPEC Trainer cards are in the set, limited to one per deck.

Each one packs a serious punch in gameplay—like the MAX Rod ACE SPEC card, which lets players retrieve up to five Pokémon or Energy cards from their discard pile. On top of that, Prismatic Evolutions features a mix of ultra-rare illustration cards, gold-edged rares, and special art that takes these cards to another level.

Why Prismatic Evolutions Is a Must-Have

Between the fresh artwork, inventive mechanics, and the undeniable charm of Eevee and friends, Prismatic Evolutions is set to be one of the year’s standout sets. Collectors and players alike will find something to love here, from stunning illustration rares to powerful new game cards that can make a real difference in play.

Rare Cards and Collector’s Highlights

For collectors, Prismatic Evolutions isn’t short on treasures. Each Eevee evolution has its special illustration and hyper-rare gold Pokémon ex card, making them must-haves for anyone building a showcase-worthy collection.

The set includes 32 illustration rares featuring detailed artwork for Pokémon ex and Supporter cards, so plenty of eye candy is here. With so many unique finishes and designs, it’s bound to make a few waves among fans.

Pokémon TCG Sets From 2024

Released on November 8, 2024, Surging Sparks will be the last Pokémon TCG Scarlet & Violet series main expansion for 2024.

Adapted from the Japanese sets Supercharged Breaker and Paradise Dragona, this expansion combines the raw power of electric Pokémon with the majestic strength of Dragon-types like Alolan Exeggutor ex and Latias ex.

With over 250 cards, including new ACE SPEC cards and Stellar Tera ex Pokémon, Surging Sparks has exciting new additions that will shake up the competitive scene and include some epic chase cards for collectors.

Beyond the headlining Pikachu ex, Surging Sparks offers a diverse range of powerful cards, including nine regular ex Tera Pokémon, 23 illustration rares, and six golden secret rares, making it a must-have for any serious Pokémon TCG fan.
