Grand Theft Auto VI is confirmed for release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026. While a PC version is widely expected, Rockstar Games has not yet officially announced a launch date for it, with some industry observers anticipating it in early 2027.

What to Expect in Grand Theft Auto VI
