GTA 6 Pre Order Update: How Close Pre Orders Really Are and What Players Should Know

GTA 6 Pre Order Update

GTA 6 pre orders are not officially live yet as of Wednesday, February 4, 2026, 7:58 PM PST. Many retailers have “remind me” or wishlist buttons, but Rockstar and Take-Two have not pressed the green button on real pre orders.

This gap is making a lot of players refresh news feeds more than they’d like to admit, especially after years of leaks, rumors, and shifting dates.

In simple terms: anyone promising “confirmed” pre orders right now is either guessing or chasing clicks. The only dates that matter will come from Rockstar’s official channels and the Take-Two earnings calls that tend to drive big announcements.

When Will GTA 6 Be Available for Pre Order?

Pre orders are widely expected to open in 2026, most likely around Rockstar’s next big marketing beat, which could be Trailer 3 or a dedicated showcase.

Recent coverage and leaks suggest two possible windows:

  • A February 2026 window tied to new Trailer 3 buzz and earnings call hype (more speculative).

  • A later push closer to the release date, when full editions and bonuses are locked in.

Analysts and long-time Rockstar watchers expect pre orders to align with a major trailer drop, because that is when special editions, pre order bonuses, and region-wise timings are usually revealed together. For now, the best practical move is to follow Rockstar’s official site and verified social accounts instead of chasing daily “leak” cycles.

GTA 6 Release Date

GTA 6 is currently set to release on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. 

On X, the official account @RockstarGames recently announced that Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed to Thursday, November 19, 2026, explaining that the extra time is needed to deliver the level of polish players expect and deserve.

This comes after earlier targets of Fall 2025 and then May 26, 2026, were pushed back, which is a familiar pattern for big-budget games trying to avoid a messy launch. 

Time-wise, Rockstar and Take-Two are treating November 19, 2026, as the global launch day, with typical regional unlock variations like midnight local releases expected but not yet fully detailed for this latest date.

A PC version is still not confirmed for 2026 and is expected to arrive later, likely in 2027 or beyond, similar to past GTA releases. Many long-time GTA players are already planning upgrades or saving for new consoles around that window instead of waiting for a PC date.

GTA 6 Trailer

Two official trailers are already out, and a third trailer is heavily rumored but not yet officially dated. Trailer 1 confirmed the Vice City–style setting and instantly broke view records, while Trailer 2 dug deeper into the world, characters, and overall tone of GTA 6.

Recent reports and social chatter suggest Trailer 3 could land in February 2026, possibly timed around a Take-Two earnings call.

If that happens, it would be the perfect moment to finally pair a fresh gameplay look with concrete pre order details. Fans are especially watching for more on Lucia and Jason, map scale, and how much of Leonida can be explored at launch.

GTA 6 Price

GTA 6’s official price has not been confirmed yet, but industry analysts expect the standard edition to sit in the 70–80 USD range, in line with or slightly above current AAA trends.

Some predictions go further, suggesting Deluxe and Collector’s Editions could easily cross 100 USD, especially with physical extras or in-game bonuses.

In India and similar markets, early estimates place the Standard Edition around ₹6,999, Deluxe around ₹8,999, and the Collector’s Edition above ₹15,000, though these are still projections, not final Rockstar numbers.

Given the long development cycle and massive marketing push, many observers expect GTA 6 to be one of the most expensive games ever produced, which makes a slightly higher launch price feel very likely rather than surprising.

Disclaimer: All GTA 6 information above is based on currently available public reports, industry analysis, and reasonable speculation, and may change when Rockstar issues official updates. Readers should always cross-check final dates, platforms, and prices with Rockstar Games and authorized retailers before making any purchase decisions.
