GTA 6 Release Date: When Does Grand Theft Auto VI Launch?

Grand Theft Auto VI launches November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Here's the confirmed release date, platforms and what we know so far.

The short answer

Grand Theft Auto VI releases on November 19, 2026. Rockstar Games confirmed the date and opened pre-orders on June 25, 2026.

Platforms

At launch, GTA 6 is a current-gen console exclusive:

PlatformAvailable at launch
PlayStation 5✅ Yes
Xbox Series X|S✅ Yes
PC❌ Not confirmed

A PC version has not been officially announced. Based on the rollout of Grand Theft Auto V — which reached PC roughly a year and a half after consoles — a later PC release is widely expected, but nothing is confirmed. See our GTA 6 on PC pillar for the full picture.

Why this date matters

GTA 6 is one of the most anticipated entertainment releases ever made. The November 19 launch lands it squarely in the holiday window, and pre-order demand has already broken records in its first day.

What we’re tracking next
