The release date of Grand Theft Auto VI is coming closer and closer. But when will GTA 6 pre-orders actually go live? We’ll tell you everything we know.
To get straight to the point: we don’t know when the pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will go live. As of now, Rockstar Games has only revealed the release date of GTA 6 which is on November 19, 2026. That means pre-orders have to go live before that date, but we don’t know when exactly that is.
We’ll definitely update this page as soon as we know more! So make sure to bookmark our blog so you can find it easily.
According to RockStation on X, a popular GTA 6 commenter, the GTA 6 pre-order might go live on May 12, 2026. This is because a rumour is going around that a press pack was sent to retailers in the UK stating that GTA 6 pre-orders start on May 12 and the price will be £69,99. Nothing has been confirmed, and gamers on Reddit don't seem convinced that anything will happen. The Reddit post is filled with comments like "All this build up just for absolutely nothing to happen on May 12. I hope I’m wrong", and "Huge grains of salt with this one - so far there is no other corroborating info. If this is true, many people should be able to confirm it."

Rumours around the pre-order date for GTA 6 seem to be all over the place. Users on Reddit expect pre-orders to go live when the third trailer drops. But when will the third trailer drop? That info is not known yet, but rumours suggest it might be in August.
Recently, other rumours about a potential GTA 6 pre-order date have been circulating online. The word got out that Take-Two scheduled its next earnings call on May 21. This is an important meeting where a CEO discusses financial results with investors, analysts, and the media. Fans on Reddit suspect that the company would like to share some GTA 6 pre-order insights in this call, which would mean the pre-orders have to go live before May 21, 2026.
