Summary
Burger Motorsports said it will shut on Nov. 19, 2026, after an internal memo cited an “unprecedented number” of employee scheduling conflicts tied to Grand Theft Auto VI’s release.
The Southern California auto-parts maker said staff had already warned management they would be unavailable or effectively “in Vice City” for the day, prompting a planned closure instead of last-minute absences.
Rockstar’s parent Take-Two has acknowledged the launch’s pull, with CEO Strauss Zelnick saying many people will call in sick and analysts projecting more than 20 million copies sold on day one.
GTA VI arrives after two delays to its now-confirmed Nov. 19 date; pre-orders are set to open June 25, reviving expectations that the game could become one of entertainment’s biggest launches.
