GTA 6 is Coming: Official Release Date and Everything You Need to Know
📸 Another cinematic moment from GTA 6 Trailer – Rockstar’s 2025 masterpiece
After over a decade of anticipation, Rockstar Games has finally pulled back the curtain on GTA 6, confirming an official release date of May 26, 2026. The announcement, made through Rockstar's official channels, comes alongside a jaw-dropping new trailer that dives deeper into the world, characters, and chaos we can expect.
Leonida: The New Playground for Crime
The game is set in Leonida, a vibrant and dangerous state inspired by Florida. We’re heading back to the iconic Vice City, but this time it's larger, denser, and more reactive than ever before. The world feels alive, with events, characters, and consequences unfolding around every corner.
Dual Protagonists: Meet Jason & Lucia
For the first time in GTA history, we’re introduced to a female lead, Lucia, alongside her partner-in-crime, Jason. Their bond gives off heavy Bonnie and Clyde vibes. From prison breaks to high-octane heists, their story looks emotionally charged and action-packed.
GTA 6 Trailer Teasers
Trailer 1 blew the internet apart when it dropped in December 2024. It gave fans a nostalgic yet fresh look at Vice City. But Trailer 2 took things further—more story reveals, deeper character arcs, and a tease of a sprawling conspiracy in the sunshine state. We even see Lucia getting picked up from prison as their new journey begins.
Platform Availability
- Confirmed: PS5, Xbox Series X/S
- Not Announced Yet: PC (likely delayed as with previous titles)
- Not Releasing: PS4, Xbox One
Rockstar has no current plans to bring GTA 6 to previous-gen consoles. And sadly, PC gamers may have to wait beyond 2026 for their version.
Why The Delay?
Internal reports suggest the delay was influenced by a full return to office work for developers, as well as Rockstar's commitment to releasing only when the game meets its gold standard. Former developers have emphasized that GTA 6 is a title meant to last "10+ years" with no competition in sight.
What’s Next?
With more trailers expected in the coming months, now is the time to rewatch the classics or explore games similar to GTA while the hype builds. Stay tuned to Manwha/Manhua Believers as we continue to cover every detail and leak about the most anticipated open-world game ever made.
