Trailer 3: not yet released. With launch marketing ramping up after the June 25 pre-order opening, community speculation points to a summer 2026 drop — nothing is confirmed until Rockstar says so.
Lucia & Jason
For the first time in the series' history, two playable leads share the spotlight — partners in crime, in every sense.

Welcome to Leonida
Vice City never really left. Two decades after players last cruised Ocean Drive, Rockstar returns to its sun-bleached fever dream of Miami — bigger, stranger, and more alive than ever. This time, the neon strip is only the beginning. GTA VI unfolds across the entire fictional state of Leonida, Rockstar's take on modern Florida: a place where pastel art-deco hotels share a coastline with airboat swamps, gator farms, strip-mall churches, and livestreamed chaos.
At the center of it all are Lucia and Jason — a couple who have always known the deck is stacked against them. When an easy score goes wrong, they land on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, tangled in a criminal conspiracy that stretches across the whole state — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive. Rockstar has framed their dynamic in unmistakable terms: a modern Bonnie and Clyde, two outlaws who only make sense together, tearing through a state that films everything and forgives nothing.
Rockstar has also confirmed GTA VI ships as a single-player experience at launch — the story of Lucia and Jason comes first, with the online world to follow. The sun is hot, the money is dirty, and every sunset over Vice City looks like a warning.
Key Locations

FAQ
There is no official PC date. Rockstar's historical console-to-PC gaps run roughly 6 months for GTA IV, about a year for Red Dead Redemption 2, and around 19 months (often rounded to 2 years) for GTA V. Weighting recent ports more heavily gives an estimate of roughly 14 months after the November 19, 2026 console launch — landing in early 2028. Industry analysts broadly expect the same 12–18 month window, meaning late 2027 to mid 2028. It's an educated guess; the moment Rockstar announces a real date, this site's countdown will target it instead.
Several reasons, all strategic. A console-first launch concentrates marketing and avoids day-one piracy on PC. It also gives Rockstar the chance to sell the game twice — once at console launch, and again with an enhanced PC edition featuring better visuals, higher frame rates, and extras. Finally, PC ports take genuine engineering time: supporting thousands of hardware configurations is a far bigger job than targeting two console families.
No. The June 25, 2026 pre-order opening covered only PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S — there is no PC pre-order, no PC price, and no PC spec sheet. History strongly suggests a PC version is coming (every mainline GTA since GTA III has eventually made the jump), but until Rockstar says so, nothing is confirmed. Every PC date you see online, including the one on this site, is an estimate.
GTA VI is officially confirmed for PlayStation 5 (including PS5 Pro) and Xbox Series X|S, launching November 19, 2026. Those are the only announced platforms — no PC, no Nintendo hardware, and no last-gen consoles. The game is built exclusively for current-generation machines.
Pre-orders opened June 25, 2026 at midnight local time across the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Rockstar Store, and major retailers. There are exactly two editions: Standard ($79.99) and Ultimate ($99.99) — no collector's edition exists, and "physical" copies are a download code in a box rather than a disc. Everyone who pre-orders before November 20, 2026 gets the Vintage Vice City Pack (a classic car, an Ocean Beach garage, and vintage outfits for Jason and Lucia), and digital pre-orders can pre-load starting November 12. You can also upgrade from Standard to Ultimate any time after launch.
