Rockstar Games has officially delayed the release of its sixth edition of Grand Theft Auto (GTA 6) for the second time, shifting its launch from May 26, 2026, to November 19, 2026.

The company has updated the game’s official website to reflect this new release date and to confirm that the game will initially launch exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, leaving PC players without a confirmed timeline.

This follows a pattern similar to GTA 5, where the PC version was released nearly two years after the console version.

The second trailer offered a deeper look into protagonists Jason and Lucia’s lives of crime, but gamers will have to wait a few months longer to find out more about the Bonnie and Clyde-inspired duo. 

The website update offers no new game-changing information but reconfirms details about Vice City, the map, and supporting characters.

While console players can expect the release starting November 19, PC gamers may have to wait until 2027 or later for a port.

Despite the disappointment, the extended timeline is expected to allow Rockstar to polish the highly anticipated title further, raising hopes for a smoother and more immersive launch experience.
