Grand Theft Auto 6 Release Date Leaked: Coming to PlayStation and Xbox in 2026

Rockstar Games' highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 has had its official release window revealed by industry sources. The game, which has been in development for nearly a decade, is expected to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles in 2026.

The leak comes after years of speculation and anticipation from fans worldwide. Previous reports suggested the game would feature a return to Vice City, the fictional Miami-inspired location from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, along with a major female protagonist - a first for the series.

Industry analysts predict that GTA 6 could generate unprecedented revenue for Rockstar Games and its parent company Take-Two Interactive. The previous installment, Grand Theft Auto V, has generated over $7 billion in revenue since its release in 2013, making it one of the most successful entertainment products of all time. The long development time suggests Rockstar is aiming to create a groundbreaking open-world experience that pushes current-generation hardware to its limits.
