Is GTA 6 Coming in 2026? Latest on the Release Window
Rockstar is targeting a late-2026 launch for GTA 6 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, after the game slipped from an earlier 2025 window. As always with Rockstar, treat the date as a target rather than a guarantee.
Is GTA 6 coming out in 2026?
That's the current target. The game was first announced with a 2025 window, then moved into 2026. The studio has prioritised polish over speed throughout the series' history, so further movement is always possible.
Why the date keeps shifting
GTA 6 is enormous in scope, with a huge open world, two protagonists and an expected online component. Delays on projects this large are normal — Rockstar delayed both GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 before their eventual releases.
Is GTA 6 out yet?
No. As of now it has not launched. Anyone claiming to already have the full game is not being truthful.
