When was GTA 6 supposed to come out?

Short answer

Grand Theft Auto VI is set for a worldwide digital release on November 19, 2026, after two delays from 2025 and May 26, 2026.

Updated Release

Grand Theft Auto VI launches worldwide on November 19, 2026, exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. It is digital-only, with no physical disc. Rockstar moved the date twice: first from a vague 2025 window to May 26, 2026, then again to November 19, 2026.

The original announcement, Trailer 1 on December 4, 2023, only promised “2025” without a season. In early 2026, Rockstar pulled that to May 26, 2026. That date slipped to the current one on November 19, 2026. Rockstar has not called this final, so future shifts remain technically possible but nothing suggests one.

Preorders opened June 25, 2026. Standard costs $79.99, Ultimate $99.99. There is no PC version announced or dated, and no separate online component confirmed. If you are asking because you want to plan, the safe assumption is November 19, 2026, at midnight local time in each region, which you can check on the release date page.
