About this countdown
Grand Theft Auto VI is officially scheduled to release on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar Games confirmed this date in November 2025, moving the game from an earlier May 26, 2026 target to allow more development time.
How the timer is calculated
The countdown recalculates the difference between your device’s current time and the confirmed release moment every second. Because Rockstar hasn’t announced an exact release hour, this page treats the launch as beginning at midnight on November 19, 2026, in U.S. Eastern Time. If Rockstar announces a specific launch hour, this page will be updated to reflect it.
Why U.S. Eastern Time
Using a single fixed timezone, rather than each visitor’s local clock, keeps the countdown consistent for everyone watching it. U.S. Eastern Time was chosen because it’s the timezone Rockstar Games itself operates from. The timer automatically accounts for daylight saving, so the target moment doesn’t shift depending on when you check it.
If the date changes
Rockstar has delayed GTA 6 twice already, so a further change is possible. This page reflects the currently confirmed date and will be corrected if Rockstar announces something different.
