View on Instagram ↗Pre-ordered digitally? Your download starts here. Clear up to 212 GB first. Pre-loading does not unlock the game early.
Boxed copies reach retailers from Nov 12. There is no disc inside, just a download code you redeem to join the pre-load.
GTA VI unlocks at midnight local time on both consoles. Rockstar also plans a free official Leonida map and cover art download that day.
Nine new uploads just landed on the GTA Pop Culture YouTube run. Tap any card to watch it on YouTube.
Note: “30 Days to Leonida” and “24 Hours Jail” are currently blocked worldwide on YouTube by copyright claims and are not listed here.
Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos have always known the deck is stacked against them. Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson told Edge on October 29 that the pair start out wanting to be together and wanting to give their relationship another shot, and that quitting crime is a core theme of the story. Whether they keep that shot is, in his words, yours to keep or yours to lose.
“When an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida.” — Rockstar Games, official GTA VI site
A pickup working for Vice City businessman Boobie Ike goes bad, and from there the fallout spreads statewide, far beyond Vice City. Your Criminal Profile and a four-point closeness scale shape how the story plays out. Rockstar has not revealed the ending, the villain, or how many endings there are.
Meet the castTwo playable leads you can switch between, plus six named residents from Rockstar’s official cast list.
Her father taught her to fight as soon as she could walk. Fighting for her family landed her in Leonida Penitentiary, and sheer luck got her out. She wants the good life her mom dreamed of since their days in Liberty City. A life with Jason could be her way out. She is the first playable female lead in a mainline GTA.
He grew up around grifters and crooks, did a stint in the Army after troubled teens, and now works for local drug runners in the Keys. He wants an easy life that keeps getting harder. Meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him.
Rockstar has named six regions on the official site. Tap a region to read its file. No official full map or map size has been published yet.
The neon urban core of Leonida and the center of the story. Trailer 2 road signs name Downtown, VCI Airport, Southside, and Peacock Bay, and scenes match real Miami spots like Lummus Park in South Beach and the Clevelander pool deck.
Everything confirmed by Rockstar on November 3 and 4, in one place. Prices and dates checked November 6, 2026.
Every copy bought before November 20 comes with the Vintage Vice City Pack. Codes follow the region of your platform account, so buy from a store in your account’s country.
212 GB is about a quarter of a standard 825 GB PS5 drive. That figure is the pre-load space Rockstar says to have free, not a confirmed final install size. Rockstar has not published separate PS5 and Xbox sizes.
Tap each item as you finish it. This list lives on this page only.
