Sepreth(@Sepreth):Alanah Pearce says GTA 6 will miss this year’s Game of the Year window. The former Game Awards juror notes the game is set for November 19, while last year’s first-round voting opened November 4. Later nominee votes still landed weeks before the show. She says an 80-hour game arriving that late would leave jurors voting on something they had not finished. The dates are already locked, and she does not expect them to move for one title. Rockstar does not need the trophy.
