Will GTA 6 be delayed again?

No further delay has been announced. Take-Two has tied full-year guidance to November 19, listed that date in its forthcoming-releases table, and Strauss Zelnick restated it at the September 17, 2026 annual meeting. That is the publisher forecasting against the date rather than a guarantee, but November 19, 2026 remains official.

Is GTA 6 coming to PC?

Rockstar has not announced a PC release date. The confirmed launch is PlayStation 5 (including PS5 Pro) and Xbox Series X and S only, with PC historically following later in the series.

Which platforms, and which are left out

GTA 6 is a current-generation console exclusive at launch. It runs on the PlayStation 5 (including the more powerful PS5 Pro) and the Xbox Series X and Series S. There is no last-generation version: PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are not supported, a deliberate break from GTA 5, which shipped on the previous generation first. There is also no confirmed Nintendo release and, as covered below, no PC version dated for launch. If you are checking whether your console qualifies, the console requirements guide breaks down storage and model specifics.

Was GTA 6 delayed?

Yes, twice. Rockstar first targeted a 2025 window, then in May 2025 announced a new date of May 26, 2026. In November 2025 it moved again to November 19, 2026, with Rockstar citing the extra time needed for polish. November 19, 2026 is the current, official date. We track every change on the news page.

Will it be delayed a third time?

No further delay has been announced, and the publisher is now forecasting against the date in writing. In its fiscal Q1 2027 results on August 7, 2026, Take-Two reiterated full-year net bookings guidance of $8.0 to $8.2 billion and tied it directly to “the November 19th launch of Grand Theft Auto VI” in chief executive Strauss Zelnick’s own words. The same release lists the date in its forthcoming-releases table.

Treat that as a strong signal rather than a certainty. It is the publisher building a public forecast on the date, which raises the cost of moving it, not a mechanism that prevents a change. Zelnick restated November 19 again at the September 17 annual meeting. What matters for planning is that the date has held since the November 2025 announcement, pre-orders have been live since June 25, 2026, and Take-Two has now put a full-year number behind it. If anything changes, it appears on the Rockstar Newswire first, and we update this page and the news feed the same day.

Is there a PC version?

Rockstar has not confirmed a PC release date. Across the series, PC versions have historically arrived after the console launch (GTA 5 reached PC roughly 18 months later), so a later PC release is plausible but unconfirmed. We keep a dedicated PC port page tracking every signal, and it is the place to watch if you are holding out for keyboard-and-mouse or higher frame rates.

What time will GTA 6 unlock?

On PS5, 12:00am local time on November 19, going by the release timestamps listed on the PlayStation Store in 63 countries. New Zealand unlocks first, at 11:00 UTC on November 18, and the whole United States shares one window at midnight Eastern, which is 9:00pm Pacific the night before. Rockstar has not confirmed the hour and no Xbox times are published yet. Every window, from New Zealand to Mexico, is on the release time by timezone page.

How to be ready for launch

Pre-order or buy digitally so the game is tied to your account before the unlock. Compare the two editions on the editions compared page, or follow the full pre-order guide for storefronts and the free Vintage Vice City Pack bonus.
Free up storage in advance. Rockstar has not published a final file size, so clear headroom rather than an exact number.
Preload from November 12. Rockstar has confirmed that preloads open a week before launch, at midnight local time. Our preload guide covers the setup on each console, including why boxed copies need it too.

How long until launch?

November 19, 2026 falls on a Thursday. The homepage carries a day counter that recalculates every time the page loads, so it is accurate whenever you check it.

Until then, Rockstar keeps revealing details through its Newswire, trailers, and screenshots. The Extended Look has already aired. The current official date is still November 19. Take-Two restated it at the September 17 annual meeting. Rockstar has not announced a third trailer.
