About Grand Theft Auto VI

Grand Theft Auto VI is the next installment in Rockstar Games' genre-defining open-world franchise. Set in the fictional state of Leonida — a sun-soaked landscape inspired by Florida — GTA VI brings players back to a reimagined Vice City and its surrounding areas.

For the first time in the series, the story follows two protagonists: Lucia and Jason, whose intertwined story explores crime, loyalty, and survival in a modern-day open world that Rockstar describes as its most expansive and detailed yet.

Rockstar Games confirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI will release on November 19, 2026. The game launches exclusively on current-generation consoles at first — PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
