GTA 6 questions, answered

Grand Theft Auto VI releases on November 19, 2026. Rockstar Games confirmed the final date in November 2025 after the game moved from a 2025 window to May 2026 and then to November 19, 2026.

GTA 6 launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. There is no confirmed PC version at launch — based on Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2, a PC port has historically followed roughly a year after the console release.

GTA 6 is set in the fictional state of Leonida, a modern reimagining of Florida, anchored by Vice City — Rockstar's take on Miami. Surrounding regions include the Leonida Keys, the Grassrivers wetlands, Port Gellhorn and more.

GTA 6 features two playable leads, Jason and Lucia, in a Bonnie-and-Clyde-inspired story. Lucia is the first female protagonist in a mainline Grand Theft Auto game. You switch between the two during play.

GTA 6 was delayed twice — from a 2025 window, to May 2026, and finally to its confirmed release date of November 19, 2026. As of now, November 19, 2026 is the official date.

An online experience is widely reported, with leaks suggesting a standalone online mode available around launch. Rockstar has not detailed it officially yet — VICECodex updates this the moment it does.

Rockstar hasn't published an exact figure, but the GTA 6 map is reported to be the largest in series history — commonly estimated at roughly twice the size of GTA V's map, with a far higher density of enterable interiors.

Rockstar hasn't confirmed final pricing. Industry expectation for a flagship AAA console title in 2026 is in the $70–$80 range, with premium and physical editions likely above that. We'll list confirmed editions and prices here as soon as they're announced.

Retailer leaks point to physical pre-orders opening in 2026 ahead of the November 19 release. Once Rockstar officially opens pre-orders, VICECodex will track editions, bonuses and the best places to order.
