Germany's Bildungsurlaub Allows Paid Leave for Educational Courses Around GTA 6 Release
Germany offers eligible employees up to three days of paid leave under its Bildungsurlaub programme to attend certified educational courses. Around the November 19, 2026 release of the video game GTA 6, some may use this leave to participate in courses that use open-world games like GTA 6 as learning tools. However, the leave requires attending official training sessions focused on professional skills, not simply playing the game at home.
