Grand Theft Auto VI arrives on November 19, 2026, exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, priced at $79.99 for the Standard Edition — here is what to expect from what is widely seen as the biggest game launch of the decade.
Grand Theft Auto VI, developed by Rockstar Games, launches globally on November 19, 2026, and has been widely called the most anticipated game of the year and the biggest game launch of the decade. The game has even earned a cameo in a recent episode of South Park. Though it has been delayed a couple of times in the past, Rockstar shows no sign of another delay this close to release.
At launch, GTA 6 will be exclusive to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, with no support for older consoles. The Standard Edition is priced at $79.99, available digitally and in physical stores, though physical boxes contain a download code rather than a disc. The Ultimate Edition costs $99.99 and is digital only, while a Collector's Bundle — officially titled "Grand Theft Auto VI: The Goodtime State – Vice City Collection" — is priced at $399.99 and does not include a game code.
The game drops players into the fictional state of Leonida, a Florida-inspired setting that includes Vice City. Only the single-player story mode will be available at launch; GTA Online is expected to follow in 2027, as is a PC version rumored for early 2027. Pre-loading opens on November 12. Storage estimates point to at least 150 GB, with a leaked figure suggesting 210 GB on PlayStation 5. The title carries an ESRB Mature 17+ rating.
