Pre-orders

Pre-orders opened at midnight local time on June 25, 2026. Pre-orders get the Vintage Vice City Pack, and digital pre-orders on PlayStation Store and Xbox Store also get one free month of GTA+ (the Xbox listing says it must be redeemed within 180 days). Physical copies are a download code in a box, not a disc, and go on sale November 12 so buyers can pre-load. Digital pre-loading also starts November 12. Launch is November 19, 2026. US prices are $79.99 (standard) and $99.99 (Ultimate). Take-Two has not published pre-order unit numbers. Newzoo estimated about $180M in digital pre-order sales in the US and five biggest European markets during the first week; this is an outside estimate, not an official figure.

Platforms

Confirmed PS5 and Xbox Series X|S

Rockstar has named only PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The PlayStation Store listing shows the game as PS5 Pro Enhanced, but Sony and Rockstar have not explained what the enhancements are. There are no PS4 or Xbox One versions. No PC version has been announced; at the September 2026 AGM Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick only said PC is becoming more important to the company in general. Past Rockstar PC ports came later, roughly 12 to 19 months after console launch for RDR2 and GTA V, but that is history, not a plan. Nothing has been announced for Nintendo Switch 2. Rockstar's Rob Nelson has said the game currently targets 30fps on consoles and that a 60fps mode has not been confirmed.^{[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]}

Physical copies are download codes

Retail boxes contain a download code rather than a disc, so every player downloads the full game. Boxed copies go on sale on 12 November, a week before launch, so buyers can redeem the code and pre-load.^{[18][8][19][2][9][10][14][20][21]} For the full launch-week checklist, see our FAQ.

Related product: the official album (not a game edition)

Official Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album is a music release from Rockstar and Atlantic Records: 34 tracks, out 19 November 2026 on streaming services, vinyl and CD^[22][23]. It is sold separately, does not include the game, and is not part of any game edition or pre-order bonus. Details on our soundtrack page.
