GTA 6 Release Date and Trailer: Everything Confirmed So Far

Grand Theft Auto VI has a confirmed date, a confirmed extended look, and — as always with this game — a fresh wave of leaks arriving right on schedule. Here's what's actually confirmed as of August 22, 2026, separated from what's still speculation.

What happened

Rockstar Games announced on August 6, 2026 that an extended look at GTA 6 will air on Netflix on August 27 at 3 PM ET, with the same footage dropping on Rockstar's own YouTube channel later the same day. It's the biggest scheduled reveal since the game's original trailers, and it lands just under three months before launch.

What we know

• Release date: November 19, 2026.
• Platforms: PS5, PS5 Pro, and Xbox Series X/S. As of this writing, Rockstar has not confirmed a PC release date.
• Pricing: The Standard Edition is priced at $80, with a Deluxe Edition at $100.
• The August 27 reveal: An "extended look," not a full gameplay demo — expect a longer trailer with more world and mission context than previous marketing beats, per Rockstar's own framing of the event.

What's rumor, not fact

In the days leading up to the August 27 reveal, leaked footage — reportedly including two gameplay videos and what's claimed to be the complete in-game map — has been circulating. None of this has been officially confirmed or denied by Rockstar. Leaks this close to a scheduled first-party reveal are common for GTA 6 specifically, and have a mixed accuracy record historically. Treat anything not sourced to Rockstar directly as unverified until the August 27 reveal (or an official statement) confirms or contradicts it.

What's next

The August 27 extended look is the next confirmed milestone. Expect a second wave of marketing closer to the November 19 launch, including likely pre-order bonus details and possibly a PC release window — Rockstar hasn't said anything on that front yet.
