- Correction Everything we know about GTA 6: 55 short answers Corrected the cast answer, which now says outlets disagree on whether Manni L. Perez ever denied playing Lucia, and the Trailer 3 answer, which now gives the Extended Look as 26 minutes (the official upload runs 26:48).

Added what Amazon's listing and help pages say: deliveries from November 12, release-day delivery for Prime members, payment when the box ships, its Pre-order Price Guarantee and the US and Canada lock on its PS5 code.

- New page GTA 6 student discount: what exists and what does not There is no official student price. In August, IGN and LevelUp reported that Target offered students 20% off Standard pre-orders, and IGN said the offer covered pre-orders placed before September 12. Also why Prime for Young Adults is a membership, not a GTA 6 discount.

- Correction Every GTA 6 trailer, in order Corrected the Extended Look's length to 26 minutes throughout, matching the official upload (26:48). The shopping box on the trailer pages now offers GTA VI itself instead of older Rockstar games.

- Correction Vice City through the years: 1997 to GTA 6 Corrected the revolver quote: Rockstar says the Ultimate Edition revolvers have "classic Vice City stylings sourced from the Vercetti Estate", not that the revolvers come from it. The shopping box now offers David Kushner's book Jacked, in print or as an audiobook, plus GTA VI, since Amazon.com was not the seller of the GTA V listing on September 28.
- Update GTA 6 on Xbox Series X and Series S Game Pass, install size and unlock time are still absent from the store on September 28. Added which Xbox to buy and the expansion cards GTA 6 can run from.

Reading is easier across the site: on character, region and wiki pages the contents list now stays on screen while you read, section headings have a # link you can copy, wide tables scroll sideways instead of jumping around after the page loads, the date line shows the latest change, and pages print cleanly. On phones the footer menu now folds into tap-to-open groups, and it links our Collector's Box page and our new pages on early access, frame rate, the best console, returning characters and GTA 6 scams.
- Update GTA 6 age rating and parents' guide: still pending, likely Mature 17+ Re-checked on September 26: still no ESRB or PEGI rating.

- Update GTA 6 animals: every species seen so far Added Game Informer's September 29 cover story, which Game Informer says covers a "staggering amount of wildlife", and Rockstar's cartoon Chunkee the Manatee on the Collector's Box shot glass. Live manatees in the game are still unconfirmed.
- Update Every business and brand in GTA 6 Macca the Gator is now listed as a TV show, not just a character, with the Collector's Box items built around him.

- Update Who makes GTA 6: Rockstar's studios, the people, the engine and the budget Added who owns GTA 6: Take-Two, which trades on the Nasdaq as TTWO. There is no separate GTA 6 stock.

- Correction GTA 6 editions compared: Standard vs Ultimate Corrected the Collector's Edition answer: Rockstar now sells a $399.99 Collector's Box of merchandise with no game, and the game editions are still Standard and Ultimate. Goodtime Gear now uses Rockstar's wording: Macca the Gator is 'Leonida's hit TV show'.
- Correction GTA 6 Collector's Box: the $399.99 Vice City Collection, game not included Corrected the answer: on September 24, 2026 Rockstar announced a $399.99 Collector's Box, The Goodtime State - Vice City Collection. It is merchandise with no game inside, so there is still no Collector's Edition of the game itself. The page now lists all 11 items, how to buy, the map poster and how to spot fake listings.
- Update Every GTA 6 Ultimate Edition item, and where to find it The Goodtime Gear entry now says Rockstar calls Macca the Gator Leonida's hit TV show. It also points readers to the separate $399.99 Collector's Box, which has no game or edition content.
- Correction Everything we know about GTA 6: 55 short answers Corrected the Collector's Edition answer: Rockstar now sells a $399.99 Collector's Box of merchandise with no game in it. Corrected the PlayStation refund rule: pre-orders paid more than 14 days before release (not 14 or more) can be cancelled up to launch if the download has not started.

- Update GTA 6 file size: not announced yet, and the 676 GB hoax explained Re-checked the stores on September 26: still no official size. Added whether GTA 6 can run from an external drive, a download-time table (our math) and the placeholder figure in the Xbox store data.

- Update How Jason and Lucia's relationship works in GTA 6 Reworded the title, summary and one question around romance; the facts are unchanged.

- Correction GTA 6 vs GTA 5: map, characters, stars, price and online, side by side Corrected the special editions row: GTA 6 has a $399.99 Collector's Box, but unlike GTA V's Collector's Edition it does not include the game.
- Update GTA 6 how-to guides Added the new scams guide to the buying section and an answer on whether there is an official GTA 6 strategy guide (none has been announced).
- Update GTA 6 Physical vs Digital: Which Should You Buy? Added that retail display boxes print 'No disc included' on the front (reported), and that Rockstar's $399.99 Collector's Box is merchandise with no game inside, so it is not a physical edition of the game.
- Update How to Avoid GTA 6 Scams: Fake Downloads, Betas, Giveaways and Resold Collector's Boxes New guide: the GTA 6 scams going around before launch, from fake PC downloads to resold Collector's Boxes, with the security reports behind them and what to do if you clicked.

- Correction How to Refund GTA 6 or Cancel a Pre-Order (PS5, Xbox and Retail) Added a store-by-store section on refunds after launch (PlayStation, Xbox, the Rockstar Store and retailers), added how to cancel the Collector's Box, and corrected Sony's rule: the any-time cancellation applies if you paid more than 14 days before release.

- Update How to Pre-Order or Buy GTA 6 on PS5, Xbox and at Retail Added when pre-orders and the bonus end (buy by November 19 for the Vintage Vice City Pack), noted that the Rockstar Store's new $399.99 Collector's Box is merchandise with no game inside, and linked our page on early-access claims.
- Correction How to Preload GTA 6 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S (From November 12) Added Take-Two's own June 24 wording on pre-loading, since some late-September stories called November 12 a theory, a link to our page on playing early, and trimmed the launch-night unlock times to a link. Corrected an answer that said nobody plays before November 19: the US West Coast unlocks at 9:00 PM Pacific on November 18. Added which drives the game can run from and a link to download times by line speed.
- Update How to Switch Between Jason and Lucia in GTA 6: Controls for PS5 and Xbox Refocused this guide on the switch controls: a PS5 and Xbox button table, what to try on launch day and what to do when the wheel will not switch.

Corrected the Collector's Edition lines: Rockstar now sells a $399.99 Collector's Box, but it is merchandise with no game inside, so the game editions are still Standard and Ultimate. Also noted that the PlayStation upgrade listing shows no price yet, and linked our page on early-access claims.
- Update GTA 6 leaks: what happened, when, and why old builds mislead Added the April 2026 third-party breach (no GTA 6 content), Take-Two's takedowns of the 192 GB material, the September 24 store datamine and Rockstar's edit of its Collector's Box map photo, and clarified that Rockstar has not published a full map image.
- Update GTA 6 rumors and fake leaks: the tracker The collector's edition rumor is now rated partly true: Rockstar's $399.99 Collector's Box is real, but it is merchandise with no game, and Metro tied it to the September 9 box photos. The map row now says Rockstar has not published a full map image, and its box poster with a full map ships November 19.
- Update The GTA 6 map: every region of Leonida Added a section on whether the GTA 6 map has been released, covering the Collector's Box map poster: Rockstar says its back has a full view of the Leonida map and it ships November 19, but so far only a cropped corner is visible. The page now says no full map has been published, rather than no map at all, and notes Leonida's nickname, The Goodtime State. Region pages now start with the text on phones; the postcard and up to 12 official screenshots sit together in one section after the list of places.
- Update Leonida's counties The county map answer now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, and that the cropped corner of its Collector's Box map poster shows no county names.
- Update Brian's Boat Works & Marina Now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, since a cropped corner of the Collector's Box map poster is in Rockstar's store photo.

- Update Jack of Hearts Now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, since a cropped corner of the Collector's Box map poster is in Rockstar's store photo.
- Update Little Cuba Now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, since a cropped corner of the Collector's Box map poster is in Rockstar's store photo.

- Update Stockyard Now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, since a cropped corner of the Collector's Box map poster is in Rockstar's store photo.
- Update VC Port Now says Rockstar has not published a full map yet, since a cropped corner of the Collector's Box map poster is in Rockstar's store photo.
- Update GTA 6 news, verified and dated Stories now show their topic, their last update and a New tag, the list starts higher on the page, and an automatic list of new pages and corrections replaces the hand-written weekly summary. "More GTA 6 news" under each story now shows stories on the same subject, and the sidebar points to the evergreen pages instead of repeating the same stories.
- Update 192 GB Rockstar archive leaks: mostly cut GTA V content from the 2022 breach, not new GTA 6 footage Added IGN's September 21 report that Take-Two is taking down videos and posts of the leaked material, and clarified that Rockstar has not published a full official map.
- Correction 192 GB Rockstar archive leaks: mostly cut GTA V content from the 2022 breach, not new GTA 6 footage Removed an Amazon link that had been attached to the "GTA V" topic tag on this story by mistake. Stories about leaks, hacks and court cases now carry no Amazon links.
- Update GTA 6 runs at 30 fps on consoles in development, and 60 fps is undecided, Rob Nelson reportedly told creators Added a link to our new page on GTA 6's frame rate on every console, which tracks the 30 fps reports and what is still not announced.
- New page GTA 6 is Game Informer's issue 382 cover: a 14-page story with 12 new screenshots, digital on September 29 What Game Informer's 14-page GTA 6 cover story (12 new screenshots, digital issue September 29) is known to cover, and which details are still guesswork.
- New page Rockstar opens pre-orders for a $399.99 GTA 6 Collector's Box, and the game is not in it Rockstar's $399.99 Collector's Box has 11 items and no game, is limited to one per person and ships from November 19, 2026. The story also covers the reaction, the early datamine and the September 9 box photos.
- Update Sony reveals two Limited Edition GTA 6 DualSense controllers: $84.99, out November 19 Kept this post to the September 3 announcement and moved the country-by-country buying details to our controller page. Re-checked on September 26: still no GTA 6 console bundle.
- Correction Rockstar court filing mentions a 32-player online format for an unnamed project; Twitch CEO expects GTA 6 multiplayer 'next year' Removed an Amazon link that had attached to GTA V in a sentence about GTA Online. Court stories now carry no Amazon links.
- Update The PlayStation Store lists GTA 6's unlock time in each region: midnight local, or 9:00 PM PT on November 18 in the US Updated the closing link to our guide on cancelling and refunding a GTA 6 pre-order, which covers the PlayStation pre-load catch.

- Update Rockstar calls the August GTA 6 leaks 'heartbreaking' and says the game is 'nearly there' Retitled so this post about Rockstar's August 26 statement is not confused with our GTA 6 leaks timeline. The article is unchanged.
- Update GTA 6 timeline: every milestone from 2013 to launch day Added September 21 to 25 (the 192 GB archive takedowns, the store datamine, Rockstar's $399.99 Collector's Box, the Xbox pre-order exchange and the Game Informer cover) and the September 29, November 18 to 19 and November 19 dates ahead.
- New page Xbox says its share of GTA 6 pre-orders matches its console market share, after a report of a heavy PS5 skew The Verge's report that pre-orders skew heavily to PS5, Xbox's reply that its share matches its console market share, and why nobody has given numbers.
- Update GTA 6 Online: single-player at launch, multiplayer still unannounced Added what is known about microtransactions, Shark Cards, DLC and GTA+, and whether the story is co-op or playable offline.
- Update GTA 6 on PC: not announced yet, and the realistic timeline Re-checked on September 26: still no PC version, date or store listing, and nothing on Rockstar Newswire, Rockstar Support or in Take-Two's SEC filings mentions PC.
- Update GTA 6 physical edition: a download code in a box, no disc Added the retail display boxes that print 'No disc included' (reported), whether a disc version is coming (not announced) and whether the code expires.
- Correction GTA 6 platforms: what's confirmed and what isn't Linked the new frame-rate page, the best-console buying guide and the early-access explainer. Corrected the Switch 2 section, which named only one insider: a second insider claims a 2027 port (rumor), and a former Rockstar developer says a port does not make sense (reported opinion).
- New page Best console for GTA 6: PS5, PS5 Pro, Series X or Series S? A buying guide with official US console prices checked September 26, usable storage, disc drives, the PS5 Pro badge and who should pick which console.
- New page GTA 6 frame rate: 30 or 60 fps on PS5, PS5 Pro and Xbox? What is confirmed, reported and unknown about GTA 6 frame rate, resolution and ray tracing on PS5, PS5 Pro, Series X and Series S, and what GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 ran at on launch.
- Update Can you play GTA 6 on PS4 or Xbox One? The PS4 answer now credits PlayStation's official GTA 6 page, which is where the "not playable on PlayStation 4" line appears. Re-checked console prices on September 26: the Xbox Series X with a disc drive was marked sold out on xbox.com, and the other prices had not changed.
- Update Is GTA 6 coming to Nintendo Switch 2? Added a former Rockstar developer's view that a Switch 2 port does not make sense (reported). The status stays not announced.
- Update GTA 6 pre-order bonus: the Vintage Vice City Pack Added when the pre-order bonus ends (buy before November 20, 2026, launch day counts), what happens if you cancel and buy again, and why the Collector's Box does not earn the pack.
- Correction Where to pre-order or buy GTA 6: every store compared Corrected the PlayStation refund threshold to 'more than 14 days' before release, and made clear the $399.99 Collector's Box is merchandise, not a game pre-order. Added whether you can still pre-order, what changes after launch, and how one Xsolla request cancels every item in a Rockstar Store order.
- Correction GTA 6 price: $79.99 Standard, $99.99 Ultimate Corrected the pricing box: there is still no Collector's Edition of the game, but Rockstar sells a $399.99 Collector's Box of merchandise without the game. Added whether GTA 6 will be cheaper on Black Friday and the cheapest safe way to get it.
- Update GTA 6 price by country Added the Japanese price (¥9,800 Standard, ¥12,280 Ultimate) to the summary and FAQ.
- Update Privacy policy The Trailer 1 and Trailer 2 pages now load YouTube's privacy-enhanced player when it scrolls into view, and the policy now says so.
- Correction GTA 6 on PS5 and PS5 Pro: what is confirmed Corrected the PlayStation refund rule: Sony's cutoff is paying more than 14 days before release, not 14 or more. Added answers on PlayStation Portal, PS5 Slim and Digital Edition, PS Plus and cloud streaming.
- Update GTA 6 on PS5 Pro: what the Enhanced badge does and does not promise Re-checked on September 26: the PS Store still shows only the "PS5 Pro Enhanced" label, with no Pro resolution, frame rate or mode.
- Update GTA 6 release date: Thursday, November 19, 2026 Re-checked on September 26: the date and the US, UK and Australian PS5 unlock times have not changed. Added that there is no PS4 or Xbox One version, answers on cancellation and refunds, the PEGI Provisional 18 store label and Rockstar's Collector's Box, which ships from November 19. A new dated Coming up list runs from Game Informer's September 29 issue to launch day and drops each date once it has passed.
- Update Will GTA 6 be delayed again? Every delay, in Rockstar's own words Re-checked on September 26: still no third delay. Added Rockstar's Collector's Box, which ships from November 19, and made the days-to-launch count update itself instead of showing a fixed September 23 number.
- New page GTA 6 early access: can you play it before November 19? There is no early access: the Ultimate Edition unlocks with Standard, the November 12 pre-load only downloads, boxed codes wait for release, and time zones explain the November 18 unlocks.
- Update Has GTA 6 gone gold? Not yet Re-checked on September 26: still no gone-gold announcement from Rockstar or Take-Two, and the headline no longer carries a date.
- Update GTA 6 release time: when it unlocks in your time zone Re-checked the US, UK and Australian PlayStation Store listings and the US Microsoft Store data on September 26: the unlock times are unchanged.
- Update GTA 6 reviews: no embargo date and no scores yet Re-checked on September 26: no review embargo announced and Metacritic still shows no score. Added a note that Game Informer's September 29 cover story is a feature written before launch, not a review.
- Update All official GTA 6 screenshots Added a note that Game Informer's 12 exclusive screenshots arrive September 29 and stay out of this gallery unless Rockstar posts them, and updated the map answer for the Collector's Box poster, whose store photo shows only a corner of the map. Each thumbnail now shows a short description of the shot.
- Update Every GTA 6 trailer, in order Checked on September 26: no new video since the Extended Look. Added the next dated look, Game Informer's cover story with 12 new screenshots on September 29, and links to our official screenshot and wallpaper pages.
- Update GTA 6: An Extended Look, all 26 minutes explained Still Rockstar's latest GTA 6 video as of September 26. Added Game Informer's September 29 cover story as the next dated look.
- Update GTA 6 launch trailer: not out yet, and when to expect it Checked again on September 26: no launch trailer. Added Game Informer's September 29 cover story as the next dated look.

- Update GTA 6 Trailer 2 breakdown: key scenes, cast and all five songs Trailer 2 now plays right on the page in YouTube's privacy-enhanced player, with no extra click to load it.
- Update GTA 6 Trailer 3: is it out, and when is it coming? Checked again on September 26: no Trailer 3. Added Game Informer's September 29 cover story (a magazine feature, not a trailer) and the Collector's Box Rockstar announced on September 24.
- Correction GTA 6 cars and vehicles: every car, bike, boat and aircraft spotted so far Added a car customization section: the two Ultimate Edition mod shops, the Ganado Retro Build, and what previews say about other mod shops, Pay 'n' Spray and garage space. Corrected how the police car icon clears: swapping cars or a Pay 'n' Spray respray, not a mod shop.
- Update Vice City through the years: 1997 to GTA 6 Linked the new returning characters page.
- Correction People of Leonida: every GTA 6 character beyond Jason and Lucia Macca the Gator is now described as Rockstar does, as Leonida's hit TV show, with the Collector's Box figure, mirror and poster; removed the line saying nothing else about the show had been revealed. Added Chunkee the Manatee, the cigar-smoking cartoon manatee on the Collector's Box shot glass and poster, one of Macca's "wetland friends" in Rockstar's words.
- Update Every place in Leonida The map answer and the at-a-glance box now say Rockstar has not published a full map yet; its $399.99 Collector's Box poster has one on the back and ships November 19.
- Update GTA 6 on Xbox Series X and Series S Added Xbox's reply to a report that pre-orders skew to PS5, and re-checked Game Pass (not included in any plan on September 26). Also answered the Cloud Gaming and Play Anywhere questions: neither is announced for GTA 6, and Play Anywhere is Microsoft's buy-once program for Xbox and PC, not a streaming service.
- Update GTA 6 on Xbox Series S: storage math and what to expect Re-checked console prices on September 26: the Xbox Series X with a disc drive was marked sold out on xbox.com, and the Series S and all-digital Series X prices had not changed. Linked our new pages on GTA 6 frame rate and the best console for GTA 6.
September 24, 2026

- Correction Lucia Caminos Removed the ankle monitor from her Trailer 2 release scene: no source we could check documents it.
- Update Mendez Stopped calling Mendez corrupt as a fact: the footage shows him shooting a suspect who is trying to surrender, and calling him corrupt is the recaps' reading.
- Update Petra Navarro Her name is now credited to the video itself; only the COO title comes from recaps.
- Update Raul Bautista Stopped placing Jason in the passenger seat during the getaway (Rob Nelson told Famitsu that Jason and Raul shoot from the back seat once control passes to Lucia), and stopped routing the getaway over the Admiral Causeway, which the community synopsis has Lucia take on the way in.

- Correction GTA 6 gameplay: every system shown so far Removed an unsourced line about bus stops on the minimap, and the stock-car racing in the Extended Look is no longer placed at Ambrosia Raceway Park as fact.
- Correction Everything you can do in GTA 6 The gym as a date is now credited to Vice's September 5 roundup, street racing is listed as shown in the Extended Look, and the Ambrosia raceway is no longer called a stock-car oval, since that link is a recap's guess.
- Correction Can you hunt in GTA 6? Gator hunts, Mount Kalaga and what is known The AIRGATOR and AIRBOAT 09 lettering is now placed on the airboat's propeller-cage panel. We also added the community-wiki reading of Airgator as the boat's maker, marked as rumor.
- Correction How character switching works in GTA 6 The line about swapping between driver and passenger is now credited to a Dazed writer's own description, not to Rob Nelson.
- Correction Do cars need gas in GTA 6? How fuel works, and what about EVs The fuel details are now credited to Vice's preview roundup, and only the remark that fuel is "divisive" is attributed to Rockstar.
- Correction Can you go to jail in GTA 6? Arrests, getting busted and Lucia's prison past Removed the ankle monitor from Lucia's Trailer 2 release scene, since no source we could check shows it.
- Correction GTA 6 phone apps: every app and in-game website so far The line about scrolling the phone from the passenger seat is now credited to Dazed's own description, not to preview interviews.
- Update How to Refund GTA 6 or Cancel a Pre-Order (PS5, Xbox and Retail) Added a section on cancelling with UK and Australian retailers (GAME, Currys, EB Games and JB Hi-Fi).
- Update How to Claim the Free GTA+ Month From a GTA 6 Pre-Order (PS5 and Xbox) Added the UK and Australian GTA+ prices from the PlayStation Store.

- Correction The GTA 6 map: every region of Leonida Mount Kalaga now appears in the list of named places with a note that it has none yet, and the transit section no longer says the Extended Look shows bus stops on the minimap.
- Update Lake Leonida The Kamacho row now quotes PC Gamer's wording, which gives no basis for the identification, and notes Rockstar's two-door caption.
- Correction Grassrivers Removed Airgator from the named places, since it is lettering on an airboat, and noted that community wikis read it as the boat's maker.
- Update Paradise Garage Tagged the "Like all personal garages in Leonida" line as reported: it survives only in TheSixthAxis's reprint of the June 24 press copy, not on Rockstar's site.
- Update Leonida Keys Dropped Catalan Key from the leaked Keys names: fan maps file it under Vice City, not the Keys.

Xbox has not listed a time yet.
- New page Rockstar Support: there is no boxed GTA 6 Ultimate Edition, so physical buyers add the $20 upgrade Rockstar Support's editions article says there is no physical Ultimate Edition. Boxed copies hold a Standard Edition code, and owners can buy the $20 Ultimate Edition Upgrade once they have redeemed it.
- Correction GTA 6 timeline: every milestone from 2013 to launch day Added Rockstar Support's August 18 confirmation that the Ultimate Edition is digital-only, and the PlayStation Store unlock times. The on-the-road switching line is now credited to a Dazed writer rather than Rob Nelson, and November 10 is given as the safest last day to cancel with Auto-Download on.
- Update Vice City Police Department (VCPD) Mendez being corrupt is now given as the recaps' reading of the Extended Look, not as something shown.
- Correction Where to pre-order GTA 6: every store compared Moved the safe day to cancel a PS Store pre-order to November 10, since a US pre-load may open at 9:00 PM Pacific on November 11 if it follows the store clock (our reading). Amazon now has its own row in the store table, with paid links.

- Update GTA 6 story explained: the plot so far, with spoilers marked Added Engadget's account of the Effluvia meeting, in which Lucia stands up and leaves the job to Jason, and noted that the gta.wiki synopsis leaves it out.
- Correction GTA 6: An Extended Look, all 26 minutes explained Lucia leaving the Effluvia job to Jason is now credited to Engadget's recap, and the line about the CEO's speech now says what recaps and the synopsis each report. The driver-and-passenger swap is credited to a Dazed writer rather than Rob Nelson.
- Update Canis Kamacho PC Gamer's Kamacho identification is now quoted as it stands (it says the truck "was confirmed in a screenshot" and gives no basis), next to Rockstar's caption calling the shop's parked green vehicle a two-door.
- Update Megamundo Petra Navarro's name now comes from the video itself; only her COO title is credited to recaps.
September 23, 2026
- Correction About GTA6.how Rewritten to explain how we tag facts (confirmed, reported, rumor or unknown), where they come from, our no-leaked-media rule and the "What changed" log on every page. Removed a rumored 200 GB file size that read as if it were known.
- New page GTA 6 age rating: rating pending, likely Mature 17+ GTA 6 has no final ESRB or PEGI rating yet, and both console stores list it as rating pending, likely Mature 17+. The page explains what that means and what parents should know.
- New page Does GTA 6 need ID or age verification? What is real and what is rumor Rockstar has announced no ID or face-scan check for GTA 6. The page explains the age checks that do exist: PlayStation and Xbox chat rules in the UK and Ireland, and Australia's rules for online R18+ games.
- New page GTA 6 animals: every species seen so far Every animal seen in GTA 6 so far, from alligators in the Grassrivers and a cougar in Mount Kalaga to the dogs you can pet in the Extended Look. It also covers where to find wildlife and which species come only from previews or fan sightings.
- Update The Cyber, editor of GTA6.how Added a four-step checklist for how every fact is verified and a list of our most recent corrections that updates itself.
- New page Every business and brand in GTA 6 Every GTA 6 business and parody brand spotted so far, sorted by how sure we are, with the real companies they parody. Businesses you can visit link to their location pages.
- New page GTA 6 PS5 and Xbox bundles: what is official and what is not No official GTA 6 PS5 or Xbox bundle has been announced, and the only official GTA 6 hardware is the $84.99 DualSense. The page covers retailer deals, O2's finance plan and past Rockstar bundles.
- New page GTA 6 voice actors and cast: every name, checked Rockstar has named no GTA 6 cast, so this page checks every reported and rumored name. Stephen Root says he is in the game and the press ties him to Brian Heder; Manni L. Perez as Lucia and Dylan Rourke as Jason are rumors.
- Correction GTA 6 characters: every name revealed so far Valentina is now described as a fan identification, not a confirmed returning character, Stefanie goes by her first name only, and a leak-based claim is replaced with evidence from official footage. The Oscar Jaenada casting claim is now marked as untraceable fan chatter, and every supporting character links to a page or wiki entry.
- New page Andrés de León Andrés de León is the VIP Jason and Lucia protect at Megamundo's headquarters opening in the Extended Look, until an armed crew takes him hostage. The job is walked through behind a spoiler warning.
- Correction Boobie Ike Retagged the realtor claim as fan wiki rumor, corrected the source of his drug-money line (Rockstar's site, not footage), added his Extended Look job, look and official lines, and filled in the infobox. Also stopped saying Ernesto phones in his warning, since recaps disagree on how he delivers it. Made clear he is known from his official bio and screenshots rather than Trailer 2 footage, and added where he appears.
- Correction Brian Heder Dropped a fan-site claim about Lori, retagged the Raul cellmate idea as rumor, added the Effluvia warning in Brian's own words, his official lines, look and infobox, and linked the Stephen Root news post. Also made clear that Root's quoted words do not name his role (the press ties him to Brian) and that sources disagree on where Effluvia is. Added Engadget's report of Brian on the water with Jason and Lucia. Credited Lucia leaving the Effluvia meeting to Engadget's recap instead of showing it as official, since the gta.wiki synopsis does not describe it.
- Correction Cal Hampton Corrected the Raul Bautista claim (Cal is its source inside the Extended Look, not later in the story), added his closing speech, official lines and look, and filled in the infobox. Also credited the closing speech to Cal only as recaps do, and traced the Bobby Moynihan rumor to the YouTube channel GameRoll (Game Rant, March 6, 2026). Corrected the fishing trip: Rockstar's screenshot shows Cal on a boat with Jason, while Engadget puts Jason, Lucia and Brian Heder on the water in the Extended Look. Cut an invented line about Cal never being in the room when decisions are made.
- Correction Dre'Quan Priest Corrected where he appears (the Jack of Hearts greeting is in the Extended Look, not Trailer 2), flagged the Delights Cabaret sound-board claim as unverified, and added his look, official lines and infobox.
- Correction Jason Duval Added Jason's official taglines, signature pistol and look, corrected his Trailer 2 and Extended Look scenes, and removed the Phil Cassidy clerk claim, which was a TV ad, not a Jason scene. Also stopped calling the store in the robbery screenshot a jewelry store, which no source confirms, and noted that the Key Lento name comes from leaked map material. Fishing with Cal is now credited to Rockstar's screenshot only; in the Extended Look, Engadget puts Jason on the water with Lucia and Brian Heder. Removed an unsourced 'Jay Dog' nickname and a Trailer 2 smoke-shop robbery that our Trailer 2 breakdown does not show, and credited the 26th floor to community wikis.
- New page Lori Heder Lori is Brian Heder's third wife and his partner in the Keys smuggling business. The page covers her lines in Brian's official bio, her one official screenshot and her place at the Effluvia meeting in the Extended Look.
- Correction Lucia Caminos Corrected Stefanie's name, the ankle monitor answer and the screenshot date, added Lucia's official taglines, weapon and look, and changed the Manni L. Perez casting claim to rumor. Also replaced an unsourced line about the relationship deciding the ending with what Vice's preview report actually says, and credited the date activities to Vice: kayaking, beach walks and the zoo (September 1) and gym visits (September 5). Credited her leaving the Effluvia meeting to Engadget's recap, since the gta.wiki synopsis does not describe it.
- New page Mendez Mendez is the Vice City officer whose task force raids the Venture Apartments in the Extended Look. The page separates what the footage shows from fan rumor.
- New page Petra Navarro Petra Navarro is the Megamundo executive running the headquarters opening in the Extended Look, and most recaps call her the chief operating officer. The page covers her scenes and the rumors about her, each labeled.
- Correction Raul Bautista Reframed his background: recaps trace the Dominican intelligence claim to Cal in the Extended Look, the accent idea is fan analysis, and the cellmate idea comes from one fan recap; also fixed the getaway vehicles (one swap, to a Burrito van), and removed an untraceable Oscar Jaenada casting claim and the t-shirt photo story behind it. Also credited the Capo pistol name to PC Gamer's reading of an official screenshot (reported), dated his first appearance to the official bio and screenshots rather than Trailer 2, and noted that Jason relays Cal's findings on screen.
- Correction Real Dimez Added which member is which (Roxy's nameplate chain and Bae-Luxe's BL pendant in official screenshots), their official lines and look, retagged the fan brand list as rumor, and filled in the infobox.
- New page Valentina Valentina is the fixer who hires Jason and Lucia to guard Andrés de León in the Extended Look. Fans and outlets link her to GTA Online's Money Fronts update, but Rockstar has not said they are the same character.
- New page Wyman Wyman is the collector and fixer behind the Ultimate Edition's Classic Car Collection. The page covers Rockstar's copy, its image of him and the project cars, with press-reported names marked as such.
- Correction GTA 6 cheats: none exist yet, and what to expect Corrected the money-cheat history: Red Dead Redemption 2 had one ("Greed is now a virtue", $500 per use), while GTA V did not. We also replaced two Rockstar Support links we could not verify.
- New page GTA 6 controller: the Limited Edition DualSense, price, release and where to buy Sony's Limited Edition DualSense for GTA 6 costs $84.99 and launches November 19, 2026 in black and white. The page shows where to buy each version and notes that no Xbox version has been announced.
- New page GTA 6 controls for PS5 and Xbox: every input shown so far Rockstar has not published GTA 6's controls, so this page lists only the PS5 inputs seen on screen or reported by previews, such as L3 to sprint and X for the handbrake. No Xbox button has been shown yet.
- New page Corrections and updates A public log of every correction and update on GTA6.how, newest first, which you can filter to show only corrections, updates or new pages.
- Correction GTA 6 countdown to November 19 The main timer now counts to the PS5 unlock time on the PlayStation Store listing for the US and Canada, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. Corrected the key dates: Xbox digital pre-orders get the free GTA+ month too, and the pre-load starts at local midnight on November 12.
- New page Who makes GTA 6: Rockstar's studios, the people, the engine and the budget Rockstar North in Edinburgh leads development of GTA 6, which Take-Two publishes. The page covers Rockstar's studios, the key people, the engine and what has been reported about team size and budget.
- New page GTA 6 easter eggs: every callback and hidden joke in the official material Every callback and hidden joke in Rockstar's own GTA 6 material, from Tommy Vercetti nods to GTA V brands and Florida satire, with where to look. Fan theories are labeled rumor, and anything found only in leaks is left out.
- Correction GTA 6 editions compared: Standard vs Ultimate Rebuilt the Standard vs Ultimate comparison from Rockstar's own item list, adding the engraved ES9 and K17 pistols, One-Eyed Willie's, Electric Fang Tattoo and Goodtime Gear. Corrected the free GTA+ month, which Xbox pre-orders get too, and marked the Ultimate Edition as digital-only, as Rockstar Support confirms.
- New page GTA 6 Collector's Box: the $399.99 Vice City Collection, game not included The page launched to answer whether GTA 6 has a Collector's or Deluxe Edition. On September 23 there was none, only Standard ($79.99) and Ultimate ($99.99); the next day Rockstar announced its $399.99 Collector's Box, which is merchandise with no game. The page also covered what Ultimate adds and how to spot fake listings.
- New page Every GTA 6 Ultimate Edition item, and where to find it Every Ultimate Edition item and Vintage Vice City Pack bonus in one place: what each one is, where it sits in Leonida and which ones come with every pre-order.
- Correction GTA 6 FAQ Corrected the answers on GTA+ (Xbox pre-orders get the free month too), the file size hoax, Switch 2, the voice cast, Valentina and the unlock time, and marked the Ultimate Edition as confirmed digital-only. New questions cover the age rating, ID checks, crossplay, PS4, mods, trophies, cheats, hunting and fishing.
- Correction GTA 6 file size: not announced yet, and the 676 GB hoax explained Corrected the origin of the 676.7 GB hoax: it was a doctored image posted on X on December 24, 2025 and recycled in June 2026, not a store listing. Added a "Will GTA 6 fit on my console?" checker and a table of usable space on each PS5 and Xbox Series model.
- Correction GTA 6 gameplay: every system shown so far The hub now covers every gameplay system with its status and sources, and links to the new pages on relationships, activities, fuel, jail, properties and controls. Corrected the robbery list and the relationship's effect on the story (Vice says choices "may affect" parts of it), and removed button inputs no source supports.
- New page Everything you can do in GTA 6 Everything you can do in GTA 6 beyond the heists, from pickup basketball and the gym to fishing, gator hunting, scuba diving and dates. Each activity is marked official or reported, with a link to the guide where one exists.
- New page Can you fish in GTA 6? Fishing spots, boats and catch-and-release Yes, you can fish: Jason fishes with Cal in an official screenshot, and Rockstar pitches the Squalo speedboat for Gambit Bay. Previews say fishing is detailed but catch-and-release.
- New page Can you hunt in GTA 6? Gator hunts, Mount Kalaga and what is known Rockstar's screenshots show rifle hunters in Mount Kalaga and gator hunts in the Grassrivers, and previews tie hunting to one of Jason's contacts. How a hunt plays has not been shown.
- Correction How character switching works in GTA 6 The switch buttons are now marked as not shown on either console, because the input one site gave was a guess based on GTA V. Added what a switch looks like when Jason and Lucia are apart, and corrected who said what.
- Correction GTA 6 Criminal Profile explained: Professional to Psycho The shattered profile is now described as its own state beyond Psycho, as Vice reports it, and our guesses about each state are labeled as our reading. The page no longer says Rockstar tied the relationship to the ending.
- New page Do cars need gas in GTA 6? How fuel works, and what about EVs Cars in GTA 6 use fuel, according to previews: you refuel by holding R2 at a pump for about ten seconds, and stations can repair damage. EV charging is only a rumor.
- New page Can you go to jail in GTA 6? Arrests, getting busted and Lucia's prison past No prison time has been shown for players: previews say getting busted costs the cash you are carrying, and prison is Lucia's backstory. The page covers what is shown, what is reported and what earlier Rockstar games did.
- Correction GTA 6 money explained: cash, the bank, stolen goods and fences Corrected the fence types to the ones Vice reported from previews (cars, drugs and jewelry) and the Ammu-Nation reference to the TV ad in Trailer 2. The cash-loss rule is now credited to Rob Nelson and Vice, and an unsourced line about bank jobs paying in marked bills is gone.
- New page GTA 6 phone apps: every app and in-game website so far Every GTA 6 phone app so far: WAINK, Ryde Me and Messages from Rockstar's own footage, plus the apps press previews name, such as Snapmatic and BuckMe. Domains Take-Two registered in 2025 are listed as rumored in-game websites.
- New page How Jason and Lucia's relationship works in GTA 6 Jason and Lucia's relationship moves between states rather than filling a meter, dates are whatever you do together in the open world, and previews say your choices can change parts of the story. Every preview detail is sorted by source.
- Correction How long is GTA 6? About 80 hours, by one Rockstar playthrough The answer now comes first: about 80 hours, from Rob Nelson's own playthrough as he described it to The New York Times. We removed a leaked clip we had cited and stopped saying Rockstar has tied the relationship to the ending.
- Correction GTA 6 wanted level explained: six stars, star states and evidence icons Corrected the series history: GTA IV also had six stars, and GTA V had five. The star-state meanings are now marked as reported, and we added what previews say about trackers, police perimeters and shooting tires.
- New page GTA 6 gangs and factions: which crews are official Which GTA 6 gangs are official: Rockstar names the PTT Youngin$ in its Ultimate Edition copy, and the Final Chapter MC appears on biker patches in an official screenshot. Other crews are unnamed groups from official footage or labels fans gave them.
- New page Final Chapter MC The Final Chapter MC is Ambrosia's biker club, named on the back patches in an official screenshot. The page reads the patch closely and covers what Rockstar's text says about the region's bikers.
- New page PTT Youngin$ The PTT Youngin$ are a Southside Vice City gang named in Rockstar's Ultimate Edition copy, which lets you raid their Illegal Goods Store. The page covers both versions of Rockstar's wording and what is still unknown.
- New page GTA 6 vs GTA 5: map, characters, stars, price and online, side by side GTA 6 and GTA 5 side by side: map size, leads, wanted stars, price, online and more, with a status on every GTA 6 detail. GTA Online arrived two weeks after GTA V, while GTA 6 launches as a single-player game.
- New page What is GTA+, and do you need it for GTA 6? GTA+ is Rockstar's $7.99-a-month membership for GTA Online, and you do not need it for GTA 6. The page covers the free month with digital pre-orders, the redeem deadline on each store and how to stop it renewing.
- Correction GTA 6 how-to guides The hub now starts with a path by launch week and labels every guide as store-checked or pre-launch. Corrected the pre-order bonus answer: boxed pre-orders get the Vintage Vice City Pack but not the free GTA+ month.
- Correction GTA 6 Physical vs Digital: Which Should You Buy? Corrected the physical edition: it is Standard only, it does not include the GTA+ month, and boxes ship from November 12. Cut the text that repeated the physical edition page, and added the Rockstar Store's 'while supplies last' note on boxed copies.
- New page How to Buy GTA 6 as a Gift (PS5 and Xbox) The easiest GTA 6 gift is the boxed code, in stores from November 12. The guide covers digital gifting on PS5 and Xbox and the region rules that trip people up.
- Correction How to Refund GTA 6 or Cancel a Pre-Order (PS5, Xbox and Retail) Corrected the refund rules: PlayStation refunds end once the download or pre-load starts, Xbox cancellations close 10 days before launch, and Rockstar Store orders are cancelled through Xsolla; moved the safe PlayStation cancel date to November 10, because a US PS5 pre-load may open at 9:00 PM PT on November 11, and kept November 9 as the Xbox deadline.
- Update How to Claim the Free GTA+ Month From a GTA 6 Pre-Order (PS5 and Xbox) Rewrote the claim steps from Rockstar Support: the month is claimable now on PlayStation and Xbox, physical copies do not qualify, renewals are not refunded, and the cancel steps now follow PlayStation Support and Xbox Support.
- Correction How to Fast Travel in GTA 6: Ryde Me, Buses, Trains and Scooter Bros Removed claims that rides can be skipped and that transit is free, since neither has been reported, and added Scooter Bros vehicle delivery and trams. Credited the transit list to Vice rather than GTABase, a fan database, and added the Vice City Metro and people mover that community wikis describe.
- Correction How to Free Up Storage for GTA 6 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S Corrected the 676.7 GB hoax origin (a Christmas Eve 2025 image recycled by a parody account in June 2026) and the Xbox expansion card sizes (up to 4 TB), and checked the PS5 SSD and USB storage steps against Sony's support pages. Added sourced usable-space figures for both Series S models, and matched the 1 TB Series S to TechRadar's 'roughly 800GB' usable. The Series S answer no longer says GTA 6 will almost certainly fit, since the install size is not announced.
- Correction How to Go on a Date in GTA 6: Building Jason and Lucia's Relationship Removed unsourced claims about strip-club jealousy, a beach hand-holding screenshot and a zoo in the Extended Look, credited robberies, shopping, salons and exploring together to IGN's preview as KeenGamer summarized it, credited the Bonnie and Clyde line to Rupert Humphries, added GTABase's right-trigger report for holding hands and Rob Nelson's description of how the bond works, and corrected the preview description. Credited the zoo, kayaking and beach examples to Vice's September 1 report and the gym date to its September 5 roundup, and tagged GTABase-only inputs as rumor.
- Correction How to Lose Your Wanted Level in GTA 6: Clear Every Evidence Icon Corrected the series history (GTA IV also had six stars), removed a six-star police response Rockstar never showed, and added preview-reported tactics: Pay 'n' Spray clears vehicle heat, splitting up can drop a full star, and police cars carry trackers. Tagged details reported only by GTABase, a fan database, as rumor, and credited the cash lost on an arrest to Rob Nelson's Famitsu interview.
- Correction How to Make Money in GTA 6: Robberies, Fences, Stolen Cars and Keeping Your Cash Corrected what you lose on death (only cash on hand is reported lost; the duffel bag's fate is not reported) and added reported details on map-marked targets, loot capacity by vehicle, marked bills and Rockstar's own description of its garage stash. Also marked details that only GTABase, a fan database, reports (its longer fence list, marked bills, bigger bags) as rumor, credited the Fence line to the June 24 press copy reprinted by TheSixthAxis, and credited losing cash when Busted to Rob Nelson's Famitsu interview instead of calling it a rumor.
- Correction How to Play GTA 6 the Moment It Unlocks: Launch-Night Checklist Removed an unsourced claim about a Rockstar spoiler policy, added the unlock times the PlayStation Store lists for the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand, and noted the store's offline-play tag.
- Correction How to Pre-Order or Buy GTA 6 on PS5, Xbox and at Retail Corrected the physical edition (Standard only, no GTA+ month), confirmed the GTA+ month on Xbox too, and added Microsoft's billing date and the Rockstar Store's physical-only listing, its November 12 shipping start and its "while supplies last" note. Corrected the unlock line (the US PlayStation Store unlocks at 9:00 PM PT on November 18) and moved the safe PlayStation cancel date to November 10.
- Correction How to Preload GTA 6 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S (From November 12) Added the PlayStation warning that pre-loading ends refund eligibility, corrected the 676.7 GB hoax origin, noted that physical boxes only ship from November 12, added the PS5 unlock times for the UK, Australia and New Zealand, and moved the safe cancel date to November 10 because a US PS5 pre-load may open at 9:00 PM PT on November 11.
- Correction How to Redeem a GTA 6 Code on PS5 and Xbox (Physical Box or Gift) Added Rockstar's region rules (PlayStation codes are region-locked, Xbox codes are not), matched the menu steps to Sony and Xbox support, and removed the wrong claim that the Rockstar Store emails codes.
- Correction How to Rob a Store in GTA 6: Cameras, the Safe and a Clean Getaway Corrected the speed-versus-profit choice (it is about how you open the safe), removed an unconfirmed jewelry-store screenshot, and added preview-reported details on staff fighting back, safe codes, backroom keys, CCTV footage and police perimeters. Tagged the Snap Gun, backroom keys and bag choice as rumor, since only GTABase, a fan database, reports them, took the rumored Snap Gun out of the headline and added Raul Bautista's bank job to the list of robberies shown.
- Correction How to Save in GTA 6: What We Know Before Launch Cut the guesswork: removed the expectation table and unsourced save-slot counts, and kept only what is known plus a launch-day checklist. Credited the lost cash on death to Vice and on arrest to Rob Nelson's Famitsu interview, in the FAQ too.
- Correction How to Steal Cars in GTA 6: WAINK, Slim Jim, Key Cloner and Trackers Added trackers, vehicle registration, hotwiring and window smashing from preview reports, dropped the fan-named Immobilizer Bypass, replaced the leak-based fuel answer with Vice's preview report, and removed car model years that other pages disagree on. Moved the tracker-removal detail to Vice's report and tagged GTABase-only claims (phone hacking, carjacking quick-time events) as rumor.
- Correction How to Switch Between Jason and Lucia in GTA 6: Controls for PS5 and Xbox Corrected the controls (no switch button has been shown or reported, and the d-pad layout other sites quote is a GTA V-based guess), added how a switch looks when Jason and Lucia are apart and Rob Nelson's example of an automatic switch, and split the page into what was shown, reported and expected. Tagged GTABase's switch-any-time line as rumor. Credited the Dazed switching details to the magazine's own description rather than to Rob Nelson, and replaced a 'still unknown' item the page already answers.
- Correction How to Upgrade GTA 6 From Standard to Ultimate Edition ($20) Checked the $20 upgrade listings on both stores and Rockstar's rule for physical copies, and removed the unverified claim that the Rockstar Store sells upgrade codes. Also stopped calling the car commission "Wyman's Classic Car Collection", a title Rockstar never uses. Added the upgrade's UK, eurozone, Canadian and Australian prices from the Microsoft Store.
- Correction How to Use the Phone in GTA 6: Every App Reported So Far Corrected Snapmatic (Jason and Lucia cannot post publicly, and Trailer 1's social feed was never named Snapmatic), added the apps reported from previews, stopped describing WhatUp's function and removed an unsourced claim that you cannot aim with the phone out. Tagged GTABase's phone-camera detail as rumor.
- Correction How to Work Out, Build Muscle and Lose Weight in GTA 6 Added how the gym works from preview reports (membership, exercises, stat gains), removed a leaked clip we had used as a source, and corrected the screenshot date to the batch Rockstar published with the Extended Look on August 27, 2026. Tagged GTABase-only gym details as rumor and credited the gym-date detail to Vice's September 5 roundup. Credited the body-change description to Dazed's own reporting instead of quoting Rob Nelson, who is not quoted on it.
- Update Standard or Ultimate: Which GTA 6 Edition Should You Buy? Rewrote the page as a verdict, switched to Rockstar's official Ultimate item list, and noted that the Ultimate Edition is digital only. Added the upgrade's UK and Australian prices.
- Correction GTA 6 leaks: what happened, when, and why old builds mislead Added a dated table of every leak, the December 2023 Trailer 1 leak and the July 2026 BBC report that Arion Kurtaj left the secure hospital and faces a retrial in November. Corrected Rockstar's August 26 statement (it did not ask fans to stop sharing clips) and the tribunal venue, which is Glasgow, not Edinburgh.
- Correction GTA 6 rumors and fake leaks: the tracker Rebuilt as a sortable tracker of GTA 6 rumors and fake leaks, including the ones that came true, each with who started it, its status and what actually happened. Corrected the origins of several claims, including the 676.7 GB hoax, which was a doctored screenshot and never a real listing.
- Correction The GTA 6 map: every region of Leonida Added a clickable map of Leonida's regions and links to every named place, the counties and real-life matches. The map-size ratios are now tagged reported, each county is tied to the sign it comes from, and transit details are credited to previews rather than Rob Nelson.
- Correction Ambrosia Corrected the biker gang to official (Rockstar's own Ambrosia text mentions it and screenshot vests read Final Chapter MC), marked Lake Leonida as an official name, renamed the track Ambrosia Raceway Park, read the Erin Henshaw and Sheriff's Office signs off Rockstar's own screenshot, and added the Thrillbilly Mud Club and what you can do there. Also marked Lake Leonida and One-Eyed Willie's as placed in Ambrosia by community maps, not by Rockstar, and credited the raceway's dirt-oval layout to community wikis, since only its billboard has been shown.
- New page Allied Crystal Sugar Refinery Allied Crystal runs the sugar refinery at the heart of Ambrosia. The page covers Rockstar's description, the official images it appears in and the real sugar company fans link it to.
- New page Ambrosia Raceway Park Ambrosia Raceway Park is a race track known so far from one billboard in the Extended Look. Rockstar has not described it, and whether the stock-car racing in the same video happens there is unknown.
- New page Lake Leonida Lake Leonida is GTA 6's version of Florida's Lake Okeechobee, named so far only in the Ultimate Edition copy for the One-Eyed Willie's mod shop.
- New page One-Eyed Willie's One-Eyed Willie's is the Ultimate Edition mod shop at Lake Leonida for off-road builds and hand-painted liveries. The page compares what Rockstar's site, both console stores and Rockstar Support say about it.
- New page Thrillbilly Mud Club The Thrillbilly Mud Club is an off-road mud park first seen as a logo in Trailer 1. Linking it to the Ultimate Edition's "Mud Club monster" buggy is our reading, and the page says so.
- New page Leonida's counties Six county names are known so far: Vice-Dale, Leonard and Ambrosia appear in official material, Kelly and Mariana are reported from trailer road signs, and a sixth comes only from a leak. The page shows where each name appears and why the borders are still unknown.
- Correction Grassrivers Added what you can do and where the region sits, Watson Bay and the Paradise Garage, Rockstar's own screenshot captions and wildlife, made the Mariana County status match the map page, and fixed the airboat name trivia (Vortex was San Andreas's hovercraft). Also stopped tying the Sunrise RV Park screenshot to the Extended Look release, since it may belong to Rockstar's earlier Grassrivers set, and gave the manatee sighting its only source. Corrected "Airgator": it is lettering on the hunters' airboat, not a business sign, and added Rockstar's captions for the two airboat screenshots.
- New page Paradise Garage The Paradise Garage is the Ultimate Edition garage in Watson Bay that holds the '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy. Rockstar says it has a weapon locker and a secure place to leave stolen goods to be fenced.
- New page Watson Bay Watson Bay is a small waterfront town Rockstar names only in Ultimate Edition copy, as the home of the Paradise Garage. The page covers the water tower in an official screenshot and where community wikis place the town.
- Correction Leonida Keys Added what you can do and how to reach the Keys, the wildlife in Rockstar's screenshots and Jason's safehouse vehicles, and removed an unsupported claim linking the region to a leaked clip. Also removed an Extended Look dinner at Brian and Lori Heder's home that no recap of the video mentions, and an unsourced line about Cal ranting in The Rusty Anchor. Credited Jason's rent-free house to Brian Heder's bio, not Jason's, and noted that Rockstar's fishing caption names no place.
- New page Brian's Boat Works & Marina Brian's Boat Works & Marina is Brian Heder's boat yard and smuggling front in the Leonida Keys. The page lists every sighting, from Trailer 2 to the seaplane in Rockstar's screenshots.
- New page Jason's Safehouse Jason's safehouse is the Keys stilt house Brian Heder lets him use rent-free. The page covers what the footage shows, the Ultimate Edition vehicles parked outside and how hideouts change as the story moves on.
- New page The Rusty Anchor The Rusty Anchor is a Leonida Keys beach bar named on its sign in one of Rockstar's screenshots. Fans tie it to the waterfront bar in Trailer 2, and the page labels every fan identification.
- Correction Mount Kalaga National Park Added Rockstar's full region text (including its backwoods radicals), the cougar and deer in Rockstar's own screenshots, and what you can do there, and removed two wrong claims about the region blurb and its wildlife. Added Rockstar's caption for the hunters screenshot and links to the hunting and fishing pages.
- Correction Port Gellhorn Corrected Hank's Waffles (robbed in the Extended Look, not leak-only), removed an unsourced claim that Dre'Quan works the Delights sound board, moved the Capri sign to where it appears, marked the Martha Gellhorn name origin as a fan reading, and added Rockstar's full region text.
- New page Delights Cabaret Delights Cabaret is the roadside strip club in Port Gellhorn shown in one of Rockstar's screenshots. The page reads the signs in that image and labels other sightings as community finds.
- New page Hank's Waffles Hank's Waffles is the roadside diner Jason and Lucia rob in the Extended Look, a scene that first surfaced in the 2022 leak. The page covers what is shown and where fans place it.
- New page Starlet Motel The Starlet Motel is a Port Gellhorn roadside motel whose neon sign is in one of Rockstar's screenshots. Community wikis identify it as the motel where Jason and Lucia hole up in the trailers.
- New page Uncle Jack's Liquor Uncle Jack's Liquor is the store Jason and Lucia rob in Trailer 1, the first robbery Rockstar showed. Community wikis place it in a Port Gellhorn strip mall.
- New page GTA 6 locations vs real life Every place in Leonida that fans have matched to a real Florida location, from Vice City's Miami to the Keys, with a note on how much weight each kind of match can bear. Rockstar has confirmed none of the matches.
- Correction GTA 6 map size: how big is Leonida? The answer now comes first, and the size ratios are tagged reported because they come from interviews with Rockstar staff. Corrected the comparison with the 2002 Vice City map to roughly nine times, and fixed which leak a fan measurement came from.
- Correction Vice City Rebuilt the page around what you can do and how to get there, split official names from fan names, marked Shore Drive, Stockyard, Washington Beach, Southside and the Vercetti Estate as official, and added the real Kaseya Center sign. Also corrected the zoo date to a preview report (no recap puts it in the Extended Look) and stopped saying Raul's getaway ends at Bayside. Vice Beach is now listed as an official name, since it is on a police cruiser in one of Rockstar's screenshots. Matched the Miami analogs for the Ocean View Hotel, Tisha-Wocka and the penitentiary to our real-life locations page, moved the Extended Look basketball game out of Vice City (it is at Jason's house in the Keys), and marked the Trailer 2 NINE1NINE identification and the Rialto Islands sign reading as reported.
- New page Effluvia Effluvia is the rooftop bar where Jason and Lucia meet Brian and Lori Heder in the Extended Look. The page covers the scene, where the bar might be and what the name means.
- New page Electric Fang Tattoo Electric Fang Tattoo is the Ultimate Edition tattoo parlor in Stockyard, with more than 50 designs by the art collective FAILE.
- New page Jack of Hearts The Jack of Hearts is Boobie Ike's strip club and the money behind his record label. The page lists every sighting and the characters tied to it.

- New page Little Cuba Little Cuba is Vice City's Cuban neighborhood, named by Rockstar for its busy panaderías but not shown yet. It replaces the 2002 game's Little Havana.
- New page Megamundo HQ Megamundo HQ is the downtown tower whose grand opening is the Extended Look's final job. The page walks through the job from the airport pickup to the hostage attack.
- New page NINE1NINE NINE1NINE is a Vice City nightclub, first seen on a plane-towed banner in Trailer 1. Outlets and community wikis read it as a nod to Miami's E11EVEN.
- New page Ocean Beach Ocean Beach is Vice City's art deco beach district, Rockstar's take on South Beach. The page covers Shore Drive, the returning Ocean View Hotel and the pre-order garage nearby.
- New page Ocean View Hotel The Ocean View Hotel returns as a neon art deco hotel on the Vice City beachfront, named in Rockstar's own caption for a pre-order image. In the 2002 Vice City it was Tommy Vercetti's first safehouse.
- New page Only Raw Records Only Raw Records is Boobie Ike and Dre'Quan Priest's hip-hop label, home of the Real Dimez. The page covers what Rockstar's bios say and the three official studio screenshots.
- New page PTT Youngin$ Compound The PTT Youngin$ Compound is the Ultimate Edition raid in Southside Vice City. Rockstar's own site calls the same item the Illegal Goods Store, and the page explains both names.
- New page Rialto Islands The Rialto Islands sit on a toll causeway between Vice City and Vice Beach. The page follows the Extended Look getaway that swaps cars there.
- New page Rideout Customs Rideout Customs is the Ultimate Edition mod shop in Vice City for donk builds, big rims and custom interiors. The page covers Rockstar's text and its three official images.

- New page Shore Court Garage The Shore Court Garage near Ocean Beach comes with the Vintage Vice City Pack and has a weapon locker and a drop for stolen goods. Rockstar has not shown an image of it.
- New page Southside Southside is the Vice City district Rockstar names as PTT Youngin$ turf in its Ultimate Edition copy. The page separates the official wording from rumor.
- New page Stock 305 Stock 305 is the Ultimate Edition streetwear store in Stockyard. The page covers Rockstar's copy and images, and marks fan claims about it as rumor.
- New page Stockyard Stockyard is Vice City's mural-covered arts district and home to two Ultimate Edition businesses, Stock 305 and Electric Fang Tattoo.
- New page The zoo (name not announced) GTA 6 has a zoo, and previews say a trip there can count as a date, but Rockstar has not named it or placed it on the map.
- New page Tisha-Wocka Flea Market Tisha-Wocka is one of four places Rockstar names in its own Vice City description, where it stands for bootleg brands. Nothing else about it is official yet.
- New page VC Port VC Port is Vice City's cruise and cargo port, which Rockstar calls the cruise ship capital of the world. The page lists every sighting and compares it with Miami's real port.
- New page Venture Apartments The Venture Apartments are the Vice City towers where the Extended Look opens, with a pickup for Boobie Ike, Mendez's raid and an escape through a neighbor's window.
- New page Vercetti Estate Rockstar names the Vercetti Estate once, as the source of the Morgan revolvers' styling. Whether you can visit Tommy's old mansion is not known.
- New page Vice Beach Vice Beach is the name on a police cruiser in an official screenshot, and community wikis use it for GTA 6's Miami Beach. Rockstar's written copy has not used the name yet.
- New page Vice City International Airport Vice City International Airport appears in full in the Extended Look, where Jason and Lucia meet a client off a private jet. Whether you can fly has not been announced.
- New page Washington Beach Washington Beach returns from the 2002 Vice City, named in Rockstar's Ultimate Edition copy as where the Squalo speedboat is docked.
- Correction GTA 6 music: The Album, every trailer song and radio Added the 14 licensed songs identified in the Extended Look, the four other Trailer 2 songs and the album's prices. Corrected Rockstar's radio quote to "the next evolution of in-game radio" and the Vice City FM sighting to a phone-box ad.
- New page Every song in the GTA 6 trailers and the Extended Look Every song in GTA 6's official videos: Tom Petty in Trailer 1, five songs in Trailer 2 and 14 in the Extended Look, with scenes and times. The six album singles are listed too.
- New page The GTA 6 album: 34 tracks, the six singles, vinyl and CD prices Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album has 34 original tracks from Atlantic Records, out November 19, 2026. The page tracks the six singles released so far and the CD and vinyl prices on the official store.
- Update GTA 6 news, verified and dated You can now filter the news by topic and by status (official, reported or rumor), and stories are grouped by month under a weekly summary.
- Correction 192 GB Rockstar archive leaks: mostly cut GTA V content from the 2022 breach, not new GTA 6 footage Replaced the contents list with what Insider Gaming reported, removed an unsourced 2014 date for Agent Trevor and a claim about Red Dead files, and added Insider Gaming as a source.
- Correction GTA 6 runs at 30 fps on consoles in development, and 60 fps is undecided, Rob Nelson reportedly told creators Corrected Rob Nelson's title to co-studio head at Rockstar North, paraphrased the 30 fps comment instead of quoting it, opened the post with who said it, and added Digital Foundry's frame-rate analysis of the Extended Look.
- New page GTA 6 album singles drew 4.1 million Spotify streams on day one, backed by Spotify billboards in five cities The six singles from Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album drew 4.1 million Spotify streams in their first 24 hours, according to Spotify's September 22 figures. Morgan Wallen's "Last Thing You Need" charted highest, at No. 23 on Spotify's US daily chart.
- Correction GTA 6: An Extended Look premieres on Netflix, and Netflix counts 31.1 million views in four days Refocused the post on the premiere, added Ampere's 100,000+ US Netflix sign-ups, Strauss Zelnick's 'tutorial' remark and Sony's Tokyo Game Show screening, and corrected the Netflix chart and YouTube figures to Engadget's; the scene-by-scene detail now lives on the Extended Look breakdown. The Tokyo theater ran on all five show days, not only the public days; its full story now lives in the Tokyo Game Show report.
- Correction Sony reveals two Limited Edition GTA 6 DualSense controllers: $84.99, out November 19 Corrected where the black controller is sold (PlayStation Direct where it operates, select retailers elsewhere), added UK, EU and Japan prices plus Sony's design description, and credited the touchpad and accent details to Engadget.
- Correction Rockstar court filing mentions a 32-player online format for an unnamed project; Twitch CEO expects GTA 6 multiplayer 'next year' Corrected the tribunal location to the Glasgow Tribunal Centre, added the hearing dates from the IWGB (September 10 to October 15), and dated Take-Two's 'no recurrent consumer spending' line to the September 17 annual meeting. Made clear that the filing names a confidential project, not GTA 6, and that outlets read it as GTA 6.

- Correction Piper Sandler raises its GTA 6 launch-window forecast to 48 million units, citing r/GTA6 traffic Corrected the r/GTA6 figures (weekly visitors rose from about 700,000 to 2.7 million, not by 700,000), dated the report to September 11, and replaced an unsupported GTA V comparison with Take-Two's own 2013 figures.
- New page Rockstar's official mod guidelines ban story mods, unofficial ports and paid mods outside its Creator Platform Rockstar's official mod guidelines, dated September 10, 2026, ban story mods, cross-game mashups, unofficial ports and paid mods outside its Creator Platform. The post explains what that means for a future PC version of GTA 6.
- Correction Rockstar calls the August GTA 6 leaks 'heartbreaking' and says the game is 'nearly there' Removed an incorrect claim that Rockstar asked fans not to share the clips, credited the build-age estimate to community analysis instead of Bloomberg and GameSpot, and added Take-Two's reported subpoenas. Stopped implying that Rob Nelson named the date in his Famitsu quote.
- Correction Stephen Root says he is in GTA 6, and press ties him to Brian Heder; Rockstar reportedly reminds cast of NDAs Retitled the post and removed claims its sources do not support; Root said he is in the game, and the press ties him to Brian Heder.
- Correction Take-Two annual meeting: GTA 6 launches November 19 as a single-player game on two platforms Added the shareholder vote results from Take-Two's September 22 SEC filing, removed an unsourced start time, and corrected the share-price comparison to about 1,200 percent since March 2007.

- New page Sony screened GTA 6's Extended Look in a 300-inch theater at Tokyo Game Show; no new footage Sony showed the Extended Look on a 300-inch screen with floor haptics at Tokyo Game Show 2026, with no new footage, and gave viewers a free T-shirt. One reseller later sold two of the shirts on eBay for $219.99 each.
- Update Miami's Kaseya Center now carries a giant "Welcome to Vice City" sign, under a county deal worth close to $1 million Noted that outlets read the Miami Beach vote differently: permission to negotiate, or approval of an agreement, and added the Miami New Times report. Led with the close-to-$1-million figure from WLRN and Local 10, and kept DesignRush's $975,000 as the secondary figure.
- New page Miami's Kaseya Center now carries a giant "Welcome to Vice City" sign, under a county deal worth close to $1 million A "Welcome to Vice City" sign went up on Miami's Kaseya Center on September 22, under a county deal reported at close to $1 million. Rockstar has not commented.
- Correction GTA 6 Online: single-player at launch, multiplayer still unannounced Single-player at launch (confirmed) is now kept apart from multiplayer later (reported), and Zelnick's "no recurrent consumer spending" quote is credited to the September 17 meeting where he said it. Corrected the tribunal venue to Glasgow, with hearings from September 10 until at least October 15.
- New page Is GTA 6 crossplay? No multiplayer at launch, so no GTA 6 launches single-player only, so there is no multiplayer to cross-play. The page covers what is known about a future online mode and GTA Online's record.
- Correction GTA 6 on PC: not announced yet, and the realistic timeline Corrected the PC history: Red Dead Redemption 2's PC version was announced only a month before it shipped, about 12 months after the console release. Added Rockstar's mod guidelines, dated September 10, 2026.
- New page GTA 6 mods and Rockstar's new mod guidelines There are no GTA 6 mods yet, since no PC version is announced. The page explains Rockstar's mod guidelines, dated September 10, 2026, which already say what is banned and what is allowed.
- Correction GTA 6 system requirements: nothing official yet, and what to expect Removed a wrong claim that Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC recommended an SSD; its official specs asked for 150 GB of storage with no SSD requirement. The 30 fps detail is now marked as reported.
- Correction GTA 6 physical edition: a download code in a box, no disc Corrected the edition and shipping rules: the box holds a Standard Edition code only, since Rockstar Support confirms the Ultimate Edition is digital-only, and boxes only become available to ship or pick up from November 12. Boxed copies get the Vintage Vice City Pack but not the free GTA+ month.
- Correction GTA 6 platforms: what's confirmed and what isn't Corrected the GTA+ bonus: digital pre-orders on the Microsoft Store get the free month too, so it is not a PS5 advantage, and boxed copies do not get it. Added links to the new PS5 Pro, Series S, Switch 2, PS4 and Xbox One, crossplay, bundles and mods pages.
- New page Can you play GTA 6 on PS4 or Xbox One? No: GTA 6 is PS5 and Xbox Series X|S only, and the PlayStation Store says it is not playable on PS4. The page also explains the fake Xbox One listing and which streaming options work.
- New page Is GTA 6 coming to Nintendo Switch 2? GTA 6 is not announced for Nintendo Switch 2. The page weighs the insider claims and looks at Rockstar's record on Nintendo consoles.
- New page GTA 6 police: every agency in Leonida so far Every police agency seen in GTA 6 so far, from the Vice City Police Department and Vice Beach Police to the county sheriffs and the Coast Guard, plus how the six-star wanted level works. Agencies that come only from a 2023 fan list are marked unconfirmed.
- New page Vice City Police Department (VCPD) The Vice City Police Department is the city force of GTA 6's Miami. The page covers where its name appears, the Venture Apartments raid that community wikis tie to it, and the other police forces nearby.
- Correction GTA 6 pre-order bonus: the Vintage Vice City Pack Corrected who qualifies: the Vintage Vice City Pack depends on when you buy, not when you redeem, and Rockstar Support lists it with physical pre-orders (the Rockstar Store adds "while supplies last" for its boxes). Xbox digital pre-orders get the free GTA+ month too.
- Correction Where to pre-order GTA 6: every store compared Corrected the store facts: Xbox pre-orders get the free GTA+ month too, the Rockstar Store sells only the boxed Standard Edition, and boxes are only available from November 12. Added a refund section (a PlayStation pre-order stops being refundable once the download or pre-load starts) and UK and Australian retailers.
- Update GTA 6 price: $79.99 Standard, $99.99 Ultimate Added eurozone, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand prices checked on both console stores, plus the upgrade price in each region. The page also notes that Rockstar Support confirms the Ultimate Edition is digital-only and that Xbox digital pre-orders get the free GTA+ month.
- Correction GTA 6 price by country Corrected Mexico's prices to MX$1,499 for Standard and MX$1,879 for Ultimate, and expanded the table from 10 to 29 regions with US-dollar equivalents. Store-checked rows are now marked, and the rest are credited to Vice's June 29 survey.
- Correction Privacy policy The policy now covers the checklist saved in your browser, on-device search and click-to-load videos. It no longer mentions Google Fonts, which the site stopped using.
- New page Can you buy houses in GTA 6? Safehouses, garages and what you can own You cannot buy houses in GTA 6, according to previews: the story hands you each safehouse, and they change by chapter. What you can buy is garages, and the pre-order bonus and the Ultimate Edition each add a named one.
- Correction GTA 6 on PS5 and PS5 Pro: what is confirmed Replaced a misquoted Rob Nelson frame-rate line with a sourced paraphrase, and added what the PlayStation Store listing confirms, including PS5 Pro Enhanced and the US unlock time. Added the warning that starting a pre-load ends PS Store refund eligibility, and the usable storage on the Slim and Pro.
- New page GTA 6 on PS5 Pro: what the Enhanced badge does and does not promise GTA 6 is PS5 Pro Enhanced on the PlayStation Store, but nobody has said what that adds. The page covers the one frame-rate report and whether an upgrade makes sense.
- New page GTA 6 radio stations: what is official and what is rumor No GTA 6 radio station is official yet. The page covers what Rockstar has said about radio, what the Extended Look showed, and the 14 station names Kotaku reported from the August 2026 leak, all marked rumor.
- Correction GTA 6 release date: Thursday, November 19, 2026 Added the PS5 unlock times from the PlayStation Store listings (midnight Eastern in the US, which is 9:00 PM Pacific on November 18) and the pre-load start, local midnight on November 12. Corrected the online row: single-player at launch is official, while multiplayer later is only reported.
- New page Will GTA 6 be delayed again? Every delay, in Rockstar's own words GTA 6 has been delayed twice and now releases November 19, 2026. The page covers both delays in Rockstar's own words, the four times Take-Two repeated the date in 2026 and our read on the odds of another.
- New page Has GTA 6 gone gold? Not yet, as of September 23, 2026 GTA 6 had not gone gold as of September 23, 2026. The page explains what going gold means for a code-in-a-box launch and the signs to watch for.
- Correction GTA 6 release time: when it unlocks in your time zone Replaced our midnight-local guess with the unlock times on the PlayStation Store listings, which show one unlock for the whole US at 12:00 AM Eastern (9:00 PM Pacific on November 18) and one for all of Australia. Added a tool that shows your own unlock time, and Rockstar Support's local-midnight pre-load start on November 12.
- New page GTA 6 reviews: no embargo date and no scores yet There are no GTA 6 reviews yet: no embargo date has been announced and Metacritic lists no score. We will add a roundup to the page the day reviews go live.
- New page GTA 6 sales and pre-orders: the official numbers, the forecasts and GTA V's records Take-Two has published no GTA 6 sales or pre-order figures. The page covers what the company has said, analyst forecasts (all reported) and GTA V's launch records.

- New page GTA 6 story explained: the plot so far, with spoilers marked What is known about GTA 6's story so far: Lucia and Jason pull what should be an easy job, watch it go wrong and end up in a criminal conspiracy across Leonida. Plot details from the Extended Look sit behind a spoiler warning.
- Correction Every GTA 6 trailer, in order All three official videos now play on the page, and every view figure has a source. Corrected Trailer 1's early release to about 15 hours, not a day, and replaced an unverifiable 87-country Netflix figure with the 58 countries Engadget reported.
- Correction GTA 6: An Extended Look, all 26 minutes explained The official video now plays on the page, with a timestamped sequence guide and all 14 songs. Corrected the wanted-level history, the preview session lengths and Valentina's status (a fan identification), and removed claims we could not source.
- New page GTA 6 launch trailer: not out yet, and when to expect it The GTA 6 launch trailer is not out yet. Rockstar's last two big games got one 8 to 19 days before release, which would put GTA 6's between October 31 and November 11, 2026 (our projection).
- Correction GTA 6 Trailer 1 breakdown: every scene, line and song Rebuilt the scene list with timestamps checked against the official video, and corrected the closing lines, the counselor's name (Stefanie) and how the early release happened. Copy about viral videos is no longer credited to Rockstar; it came from a retailer.
- Correction GTA 6 Trailer 2 breakdown: key scenes, cast and all five songs Rebuilt the scene list with checked timestamps and listed all five songs. The Ammu-Nation pitchman is no longer named as fact, and an unsourced YouTube comparison is gone.
- Correction GTA 6 Trailer 3: is it out, and when is it coming? Checked again: there is still no Trailer 3 or launch trailer. Corrected the date and wording of Strauss Zelnick's "hors d'oeuvres" quote (August 10, before the Extended Look aired), and moved the launch-trailer outlook to its own page.
- New page GTA 6 trophies and achievements: when the list will appear The GTA 6 trophy and achievement lists are not out yet. The page covers when lists usually appear, what GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 had, and how to spot a fake list.
- Correction GTA 6 vehicles: every car, bike, boat and aircraft spotted so far Rebuilt as one searchable, sortable table of every vehicle spotted so far, filterable by class, maker and status. Corrected which names are Rockstar's and which are press readings of its images, such as the Kamacho, Riata, Sirius and Deviant.
- New page Canis Kamacho The Canis Kamacho is a GTA Online off-road pickup that press spotted in Rockstar's images of One-Eyed Willie's mod shop. Rockstar's text never names it, so the page marks it reported.

- Correction Vice City through the years: 1997 to GTA 6 The Vercetti Estate and Washington Beach are now official names from Rockstar's edition copy, Leaf Links is marked as rumor, and Valentina is no longer called a confirmed returning character.
