GTA 6 Release Date

After years of delay, GTA 6 is now said to be released on November 19, 2026. However, its online version may arrive shortly after the main game, possibly in December. The GTA 6 online mode is expected to support up to 32 players in a single session, which is higher than the previous GTA 5.

GTA 6 Expected Price

Unfortunately, the price of GTA 6 is still unknown. Based on some rumours, the expected cost of GTA 6 is tipped to be around $100.

For a quick reference, know that GTA 5 was released in 2013 at a starting price of Rs 3,499 for PlayStation and Xbox consoles. In the US, GTA 5 was priced at $60 for the standard edition and $79.99 for the special edition.

Well, we have to wait for the official release in November to know the final pricing.

GTA 6: What else do we know?

Apart from the release date and pre-orders, Rockstar has already revealed a few details about GTA 6. The game will take players back to Vice City and introduce two main characters Lucia and Jason. It is also expected to offer a larger map, improved graphics, smarter NPC interactions, and more realistic gameplay mechanics compared to GTA 5.

At launch, GTA 6 will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. Rockstar is yet to confirm the PC release timeline. Considering GTA 5's release cycle, PC players may have to wait a little longer. For now, all eyes are on June 25 when Rockstar is expected to reveal more details alongside the pre-orders, including pricing, editions, and possible collector's bundles.
