Rockstar confirms the new GTA VI date

Rockstar Games’ latest official Newswire update says Grand Theft Auto VI is now set to launch on Thursday, November 19, 2026. The post frames the move as additional development time for Rockstar to finish the game at the quality level players expect.

This replaces the previous May 26, 2026 date, making the November launch the latest official target for GTA VI.

Take-Two reiterates the schedule

Take-Two’s fiscal 2026 results, published May 21, 2026, also list Grand Theft Auto VI for November 19, 2026. The same report names the announced launch platforms as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

For players, that means the key confirmed takeaway is simple: GTA VI is still officially planned for current-generation consoles first, with no PC date confirmed in these cited updates.
