GTA 6 Pre-Order Date Finally Confirmed: Rockstar Opens Gates This summer for November 19 Release

Rockstar Games has confirmed that GTA 6 pre-orders will go live when marketing begins in late June or early July 2026, with the game locked for a November 19 release on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

GTA 6 pre-orders are finally happening. Rockstar Games has confirmed that pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will go live when marketing officially begins this summer.

Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick reaffirmed that GTA 6 is locked for a November 19, 2026 release, telling investors the game "won't be delayed again." The CEO was so confident that Take-Two projected $8.2 billion in revenue for the next fiscal year driven by the launch.

Marketing and GTA 6 pre-orders will kick off together in late June or early July 2026, following the World Cup. The next trailer is expected around June 25 through July 8, and when it drops, pre-orders will open simultaneously.

GTA 6 is coming exclusively to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with no last-gen versions at launch. The standard edition is expected to be priced at $69.99 in the U.S. , supported by multiple retailer leaks including an Italian store that sold out PS5 pre-orders at €69.90. Zelnick has described the pricing as "reasonably priced relative to the value delivered."

Editions are expected to include Standard, Special, and Collector's tiers, with the Collector's Edition likely featuring a SteelBook case, map poster, art book, and exclusive figurine. Some leaks also suggest potential PS5 console bundles may be announced.

Rockstar has not officially opened GTA 6 pre-orders yet. Fans should avoid any retailer currently claiming to accept orders, as these may be scams. When official pre-orders open, authorized retailers will include the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store, Rockstar Store, Amazon, GameStop, Best Buy, and Walmart.
