Elon Musk has declared he will not be playing Grand Theft Auto 6, citing the game's violent nature. The highly anticipated release of GTA 6 is set for November 19, 2026.

This personal detail adds an unusual twist to the anticipation surrounding GTA 6's release, which is generating global excitement.
