Rockstar Games has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI will hit PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on May 26, 2026. A PC launch date is still under wraps. GTA V, the series’ previous main entry, remains the second best-selling game ever, thanks in part to its thriving online mode. Its follow-up, GTA 6, is now exactly a year away from release. Projections from Konvoy, a venture capital firm specializing in gaming ventures, suggest that Grand Theft Auto 6 could rake in a jaw-dropping $2 billion in revenue within its first 24 hours of release, and potentially reach $7.6 billion in just two months.
While these figures may seem astonishing at first, they appear far more realistic when viewed through the lens of Rockstar Games’ previous achievements—particularly with GTA 5. Upon its debut in 2013, GTA 5 pulled in an impressive $815 million on day one, with more than 11 million units sold. Within just 72 hours, it had surpassed the $1 billion milestone, setting a record as the fastest-grossing entertainment release of all time across any format.
GTA 6 Release Date:
Rockstar Games has officially confirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI will launch worldwide — including in India — on May 26, 2026. This long-awaited announcement finally puts to rest years of leaks and speculation, setting the stage for what is expected to be one of the biggest video game releases of all time.
GTA 6 Predicted System Specs:
To run GTA 6 smoothly, players will likely need a powerful gaming setup. Anticipated specifications include a processor such as the Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, along with a graphics card like the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT. A minimum of 8GB RAM is expected, and the game may require around 150GB of free storage space for installation.
GTA 6 Anticipated Pricing in India:
The standard edition of Grand Theft Auto VI is expected to be priced around Rs 5,999 in India. Higher-tier versions like the Deluxe and Collector’s Editions may start at Rs 7,299 or more. On the global front, prices could reach up to $100, translating to approximately Rs 9,000.
