Rockstar Games has finally dropped the announcement the entire gaming community has been collectively anticipating for years. Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will officially kick off on June 25. If you want to secure your spot in what promises to be the biggest entertainment launch of the decade, the time to act is right now.
Players can now add Grand Theft Auto VI to their wishlists directly on the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store. Doing so ensures you will receive instant digital alerts the exact second pre-orders go live. Alongside this timeline drop, Rockstar has also unveiled the official cover art for the game, sending shockwaves across social media.
The Countdown Begins: GTA 6 Pre-Order Date Confirmed
The gaming industry has rarely witnessed the level of cultural hype currently surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6). According to Rockstar Games, the virtual gates will open on June 25 across primary digital storefronts and select global retailers.
Digital Storefronts and Retailers Ready for Action
This rollout won’t just be limited to digital console dashboards. While buying directly through your console’s native storefront is the fastest path to pre-loading, major physical and online retailers—such as Best Buy, GameStop, and Amazon—are expected to open physical disc pre-orders simultaneously. However, securing a digital copy via wishlisting remains the most seamless way to avoid launch-day traffic bottlenecks.
