After years of speculation, teaser trailers and headline-making leaks, Grand Theft Auto VI now has a confirmed global release date: November 19, 2026. Developer Rockstar Games is positioning the next chapter in its blockbuster franchise as its most ambitious project to date — but early pricing information has sparked intense debate across the gaming community.
Price Listings Stir Controversy
A recent digital storefront listing briefly showed a placeholder price of £89.99 for the standard console edition. If accurate, that figure could translate to roughly $99.99 in the U.S., significantly higher than the current $69.99 standard for many AAA titles. A separate PC listing displayed a lower £60.99 price, though Rockstar has not officially confirmed launch pricing on any platform.
It’s important to note that placeholder prices often appear ahead of major releases and don’t always reflect the final retail cost. Still, with reported development expenses estimated near $1 billion, many industry analysts believe a premium price point would not be surprising.
