Current official date

Rockstar's official Grand Theft Auto VI page states that the game is coming 19 November 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. We last checked that page on 15 November 2026: https://www.rockstargames.com/VI Rockstar Support, last updated 3 November 2026, says digital copies release at midnight local time on 19 November 2026 in all regions, for both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S: https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/29jV3Cv2cCgvwM1XgtMO5o/grand-theft-auto-vi-regional-pre-load-and-release-times-on-playstation-5-and-xbox-series-x-or-s Our full briefing is here: https://www.gta6daily.eu/news/gta-6-release-date-november-19-2026

What Rockstar has said publicly

Take-Two Interactive's earnings release dated 9 November 2026 lists Grand Theft Auto VI for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on 19 November 2026. CEO Strauss Zelnick said that day that the launch was ten days away and that pre-orders were at unprecedented levels: https://ir.take2games.com/node/32676 Rockstar's official X account repeated the 19 November date on 5 November 2026, when it posted a new screenshot collection, and again on 12 November 2026, when it said the game was one week away and that code-in-box copies were in stores: https://x.com/RockstarGames/status/2118357919229964343 https://x.com/RockstarGames/status/2120909499200421900

What would change the date

The date changes only if Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive publish a new one. As of 15 November 2026, neither has announced a further delay, and Take-Two's 9 November 2026 earnings release still carried 19 November 2026. The official materials cited here do not give a PC launch date. We will add one when Rockstar or Take-Two do. Rumoured dates that do not come from those sources belong in the leaks hub, not here.
