Rockstar Games’ highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI has once again become the centre of attention online after a new retailer listing and multiple leaks hinted that official pre-orders may finally begin soon. While Rockstar has not made any announcement yet, recent developments have triggered widespread discussion among fans waiting for more updates about the game’s launch plans.
GTA 6 page appears on Instant Gaming
A listing, which indicates that the GTA 6 pre-orders will go live soon, recently appeared on Instant Gaming. Although the listing currently appears to be a placeholder, its sudden arrival has led many fans to believe that backend preparations for pre-orders may already be underway. The timing has attracted attention because Rockstar’s parent company Take-Two Interactive is scheduled to hold its earnings call on May 21.
The speculation gained more momentum after social media account “GTA 6 Countdown” claimed that a source close to Rockstar’s marketing division suggested pre-orders could officially open sometime this month. Another discussion circulating on Reddit’s r/GTA6 community also pointed toward May 12 (today) as a possible date for retailers to begin accepting bookings for the game.
Pricing rumors hint at a lower-than-expected cost
Alongside the pre-order talk, another leak has sparked discussion around GTA 6 pricing. A person claiming to work at a major UK game retailer reportedly said that internal press material mentioned a launch price of £69.99. The leak also suggested that only one edition may be available initially, with no PlayStation 5 hardware bundles announced yet.
Earlier rumors had suggested that Rockstar could price GTA 6 as high as $100, raising concerns among gamers worldwide. However, this newer claim points towards a more standard premium game pricing strategy. At the moment, Rockstar Games has not confirmed any details related to pricing, editions, or pre-order dates.
Grand Theft Auto VI is currently scheduled to launch on Nov. 19, 2026, for Sony PlayStation 5 and Microsoft Xbox Series X/S consoles after multiple delays.
