When Will GTA 6 Come Out?

Rockstar Games finally gave us a date for GTA 6: it will launch on May 26, 2026. That is the official confirmation for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

The game was delayed from its expected fall 2025 launch to allow more time to polish everything. Fans are waiting eagerly, and there is also speculation PC players might get the game later. Let’s hope Rockstar sticks to this date.

Who Is Lucia in GTA 6?

Lucia Caminos is one of the two lead characters in GTA 6. She is introduced as a former inmate from Liberty City. Her story will be paired with Jason Duval, who has his own troubled past.

The dynamic between Lucia and Jason seems inspired by “Bonnie and Clyde” type storytelling partners forced together by danger and circumstance.

Lucia has gotten a lot of attention from fans because she is the female protagonist and that is new for GTA’s history.

Pre-Order and Price Talk

No final price has been clearly confirmed for all regions yet, but many reports suggest that GTA 6’s standard edition might cost close to $100 USD for next-gen consoles.

Collector’s and deluxe editions may cost more because they often include extra content. Pre-orders are being eagerly awaited; Rockstar hasn’t opened many pre-order options yet, but many stores already have wishlists or pre-order pages up. Price expectations are high because of the game’s massive ambition and size.

What Leaks Are Telling Us

There have been multiple leaks about GTA 6. One leak shows early footage of Lucia outside a storage facility, possibly from a PlayStation 5 dev kit and dated back to 2021.

Another leak involves domain names registered to Take-Two that parody real apps names like what-up.app, rydeme.app, etc. These parody domains hint that Rockstar will have fake internet services in GTA 6, continuing a tradition from previous GTA games.

The leaks also suggest upgrades to police AI, where law enforcement may respond more realistically. While leaks are interesting, none of this is officially confirmed except for what Rockstar has said.

Trailer 2 Release & Rockstar’s Moves

Rockstar released Trailer 2 showing more of the world, characters, and gameplay visuals. That trailer helped confirm Lucia and Jason’s names, some new locations, and made the setting more real to fans. It also revealed new screenshots.

The marketing strategy seems to build momentum by releasing content little by little. Rockstar has warned that even though May 2026 is confirmed, delays are always possible if the company feels more time is needed to deliver high quality.

Leaks vs Official News — What We Can Trust

With big games like GTA 6, leaks cannot be ignored. Some are real, some are fan-made, and many are exaggerations. It helps to compare leaks with what Rockstar has officially said — the date May 26, 2026; the platform names; the characters Lucia and Jason; the setting in Leonida and Vice City.

If something contradicts official statements, it’s safer to treat it as rumor. Always wait for verification from Rockstar or Take-Two before believing all those big claims and rumors.

Final Thoughts

GTA 6 is building to be big news for Rockstar. With a confirmed release date, important character details like Lucia, leaks adding flavor, and price rumors growing, there’s a lot to be excited about.

Fans should stay alert for all the pre-order announcements, price reveals, and the next trailer about GTA 6. Most importantly, do not get fooled by fake leaks or sketchy pre-downloads. Remember, the real info will come from Rockstar Games.
