After years of waiting, Rockstar Games has finally started giving fans something concrete to work with. GTA 6 pre-orders date has been announced by Rockstar and it will go live globally on June 25. Gamers can visit PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store to add Grand Theft Auto VI to their wishlist. Along with the announcement, the company has rolled out the GTA 6 cover art via a video - catch the link below. The game will be playable on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, the studio confirmed. However, Rockstar has stayed silent about GTA 6 price. GTA 6 launch date has been confirmed as November 19, 2026. PC launch will come at a later date. For anyone who has been following this since the first trailer dropped, that date cannot come fast enough.
Rockstar confirmed on X that pre-orders will go live on June 25, 2026. In a short note, Rockstar said, "Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will officially begin on June 25 on digital storefronts and at other select retailers." What you can do is add Grand Theft Auto VI to your wishlist today on the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store. That will enable the company to alert you as soon as GTA 6 pre-orders go live.
GTA 6 price will be revealed at the same time. The studio hasn't put a number on it yet, but the speculation is already running hot. Several media reports have floated figures of $79.99, roughly ₹6,900, and even $99.99, which would work out to around ₹8,700. If either of those prices holds, GTA 6 would set a new standard for what a big-budget game costs at launch. Rockstar has not officially confirmed any of this yet.
Alongside the pre-order announcement, Rockstar released the game's official cover art via a short YouTube video. Front and centre are Jason and Lucia, the two protagonists who will lead the story through the fictional state of Leonida. Around them, speedboats, luxury cars, motorcycles, weapons, and Vice City's signature neon atmosphere. Several supporting characters also appear in the artwork, and fans online are already pulling it apart frame by frame looking for narrative clues.
Rockstar has confirmed PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S as the launch platforms. A PC version has not been announced. That said, it's worth noting that Grand Theft Auto V followed the same pattern, consoles first in 2013, PC nearly two years later.
Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19, 2026, after several delays from its original target window. According to the official story summary on Rockstar's website, Jason and Lucia are a young criminal couple who get pulled into a sprawling conspiracy across the state of Leonida after a job goes sideways. Stranded on the wrong side of America's sunniest state, the two have nothing left to depend on but each other.
