GTA 6 release date

Updated on · Machine translation reviewed by our editorial process.

GTA VI launches on 19 November 2026. The date applies to every confirmed platform, with no timed exclusivity.

What the date means in practice

Preload opens on 12 November, one week earlier. Physical copies ship with a code in the box, delivered from that same 12 November — the disc does not carry the game, it carries the key.

Rockstar has not announced the unlock-time policy yet. Across the company’s previous launches the pattern has alternated between a simultaneous global unlock and a local-timezone unlock.

History

The game was announced in December 2023 and was rescheduled more than once before landing on the current date. That matters for calibrating expectations: until preload actually opens, a Rockstar release date is a target, not a guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

Will GTA 6 be delayed again?

Rockstar still lists 19 November 2026 as the official date. The game has been delayed before, so the date is only settled once preload opens on 12 November.

Is GTA 6 coming to PS4 or Xbox One?

No. The game is current-generation only: PS5, PS5 Pro and Xbox Series X|S.
