Rockstar Sets GTA VI Pre-Orders for June 25, Reveals Official Cover Art

It signals Rockstar's move into a commercial summer marketing phase, prompting pricing and edition details to follow next week.

Overview

  • Rockstar published a 33-second teaser and unveiled the game's official cover art on Thursday, pushing the long-quiet campaign into public view.
  • Pre-orders will open on June 25 on digital storefronts and select retailers for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, a step that reinforces the studio's planned November 19, 2026 console launch.
  • The cover art highlights protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos and imagery of Vice City, motorcycles, cars, boats, and an alligator, continuing Rockstar's classic collage style.
  • Rockstar has not disclosed price points, edition breakdowns, or a PC release window, so those commercial details are expected to appear when pre-orders go live next week.
  • To prepare players, Rockstar is offering free upgrades from PS4 and digital Xbox One copies of GTA V to their next-gen versions, and Take-Two executives have framed this summer as the start of GTA VI's full marketing push.
