What’s confirmed.

Release and launch platforms

Rockstar and Take-Two both identify 19 November 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. PlayStation explicitly excludes PS4. Treat a timezone-adjusted store display as a storefront timestamp, not a new worldwide launch announcement.

Setting and main characters

The game returns to Vice City in the fictional state of Leonida, with Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos at the centre of a crime story. Rockstar's official character and location pages contain more background without needing a leaked script.

Latest official footage

Rockstar published the launch trailer on 15 October 2026, following an extended look on 27 August 2026. Footage shows the advertised world; it does not independently establish console frame rates, mod support or every feature's final behaviour.

Versions, pre-orders and pre-loading

Rockstar confirmed Standard and Ultimate offerings, a Vintage Vice City Pack for qualifying purchases, and digital pre-loading from 12 November. Rockstar says the physical release contains a download code in the box. That matters if you expected a complete game on disc; check the specific retailer listing before paying.

Australia: price and subscription fine print

PlayStation Australia listed the PS5 Standard digital edition at A$129.95 and Ultimate at A$159.95 on 29 October. The advertised one-month GTA+ offer requires a separate claim and can auto-renew into a paid subscription. Price and offer terms need checking at checkout.

Useful answers

Questions before you play.

Interesting theories are fine. A fake specification chart isn't. Until there is a Rockstar, Take-Two or platform-holder announcement, we'll label PC timing, performance claims and unannounced systems as unconfirmed.

When is GTA VI coming to PC?

Rockstar's confirmed launch-platform list does not include PC and gives no PC release date. We won't invent a month or treat retailer placeholders as official.

Will the game run at 60 FPS or a certain resolution?

No independent tested frame-rate table is available before release here. PS5 Pro marketing claims aren't the same as our own benchmark measurements.

PC minimum specs, ray tracing and graphics presets?

No verified PC requirements have been published in the official sources reviewed. Any specification circulating online needs an official link and edition/platform context.

Online mode, mods and cross-play?

Rockstar explicitly markets a single-player story at launch, but this page has no confirmed, fully scoped details for a separate multiplayer product or cross-play support. Do not assume GTA Online features transfer.

Can the game have leaks, secrets or easter eggs?

The trailers invite theories. Neither a viral screenshot nor someone calling something 'confirmed' makes it real. We will separate trailer observations, credible reports and verified in-game discoveries after launch.
