Are you looking for everything we know so far about GTA 6? With Rockstar Games having finally announced the much-anticipated sequel, interest in the game is currently sky-high. This GTA 6 guide is designed to document everything we know so far about the game, revealing important details about its release and contents. We will continue to update this guide as Rockstar Games shares more details as we near its launch. Here's everything we know so far about GTA 6.
GTA 6: Everything We Know So Far
Below you'll find everything we know so far about GTA 6 in the form of questions and responses. As further details are revealed, we'll update the guide with new information.
What's the GTA 6 Release Date?
Grand Theft Auto 6 will release in 2025. Beyond the year, Rockstar Games hasn't shared any other official details related to the GTA 6 release date. In the past, the developer released Red Dead Redemption 2 in October while GTA 5 came out in September. History would suggest Rockstar Games prefers to release its games towards the end of the year, but this may not apply to GTA 6. We'll have to wait until Rockstar Games shares more.
Why Is GTA 6 Taking So Long?
Unfortunately, video game development isn't like it was in the PS2 generation anymore, where games could be made and released inside two to three years. Rising asset size along with the meticulous detail featured in titles made by Rockstar Games means Grand Theft Auto 6 is taking longer than ever.
What Consoles Will GTA 6 Be Available On?
GTA 6 will be available on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game won't be available on PS4, but a PC launch further down the line seems likely.
How Much Will GTA 6 Cost?
Rockstar Games hasn't announced a price for Grand Theft Auto 6 yet, and since the developer hasn't released a new game this generation yet, there's no track record to fall back on. However, the game will almost certainly be priced at £70 / $70 for the base version, with special editions costing more.
What City Is GTA 6 Set In?
GTA 6 is set in Vice City, in the state of Leonida. This is a returning setting from GTA: Vice City on PS2, but the map will be completely different.
How Big Is the GTA 6 Map?
Rockstar Games has not shared an official look at the Grand Theft Auto 6 Map yet. The Map from GTA 5 is currently the series' biggest at more than 80 square kilometres, but GTA 6 is expected to beat it. When revealed, expect this to be the biggest Map the franchise has ever had.
Who Are the Main Characters in GTA 6?
While they have not been outright confirmed by Rockstar Games, it seems very safe to say Lucia and Jason are the two main characters in Grand Theft Auto 6. Lucia is the focus for much of the game's first trailer, and Jason is her boyfriend, who we see her in bed with towards the end. Right now, it's not known whether there'll be more playable characters.
Will There Be a Single Player Campaign in GTA 6?
Yes, Rockstar Games has confirmed GTA 6 will have a single player campaign. Founder Sam Houser said the game will "push the limits of what’s possible in highly immersive, story-driven open-world experiences".
Will There Be GTA Online in GTA 6?
Rockstar Games hasn't commented on the existence of a GTA Online mode in Grand Theft Auto 6 yet, but the chances of there not being one are pretty much second to none. Grand Theft Auto Online is what's kept GTA 5 going for so long and has generated a lot of money for the developer, so it'll surely bring the multiplayer mode back with new features and a better look. It may not be available at launch, but it'll arrive eventually.
When Will We Get More GTA 6 News?
Since GTA 6 is still at least a year away, it's difficult to say when Rockstar Games will share another update. More news should arrive at some point this year, but since the developer doesn't turn up to the typical gaming events like Summer Game Fest or The Game Awards, anything could theoretically happen on any day. Your best bet is to follow a website like Push Square for all the latest news.

I can't wait to get lost in the single player. There is something about just driving around in a GTA world that is special.
So nothing at the moment then. I'm guessing we can look forward to 18 months of this page being updated with more nothing aswell.
There's a chance the release could be much earlier than September/October. GTA 4 released end of April. It is the anamoly rather than the standard, but we can hope can't we.
Geez south park is calling it 🤣 I'm keeping an eye on this I won't buy it il see if it crashes and burns like the latest saints row. Bathesda amd remedy disappointed me . Ah well I've been watching a lot of content from the 90s to 2010 nothing is fun today.
Grand theft auto is going to be amazing thats what i know it will be.and so far that trailer was excellent.word up son
@Mad001 when has anything from Rockstar crashed and burned?
@MasterEMFG 🤣 state of emergency oh this will tank if they go woke
@playstation1995 I really do hope so buddy 😄 you remember state of emergency on the PS2?
@Mad001 Did you even watch the trailer? It's still GTA. It's not "woke" at all. It's just grown men upset that you play as a female.
@Mad001. Definitely.but bully was the game.its a excellent game.word up son
@Splat looks like saints row to me
It's kind of ridiculous how secretive the video game industry is. I mean, we don't even know who the voice actor is that's playing Lucia
@Splat and they’re not even totally white! The horror! I as a grown man cannot abide such wokeness, it’s a gateway drug to communism.
Also looks fun, sure it’ll be fun when it drops, but it’s over a year away so not going to let the hype get to me.
@pyrrhic_victory probably protecting the actors from threats from some of the psychotic fan base
I really can’t get excited about a game that’s potentially 2 years away (and probably more).
Wake me up when we’re 3 months out!
@Spaceship-earth The media will flood their sites with articles for the next two years until you damn well DO get excited about it!
@MasterEMFG Yeah that's true, unfortunately
What’s lame af about the whole thing is that yet again the new GTA game will launch near the end of a console cycle. Meaning we’ll be amazed by the graphics etc for about 5 minutes because the PS6 will launch within 16 months of its release( if it sticks to the 2025 line that is). Personally I’m hoping it doesn’t launch this gen at all so we’ll get a proper next gen Version to enjoy for a full 7 years of a cycle, rather than less than 2. Is that fair?
@Mikey856 which means it'll re-release on ps6, and again on ps7, as gta5 did. More money for take two. They aren't stupid.
@MatthewJP yes but again it’ll be a last gen game just tart’d up won’t it. GTAV was a PS3/360 game bro. I want it native next gen at launch of next gen or as early as possible please
possibility of a psvr2 mode?
@Mikey856 good point . theyre gonna release GTA6 just in time to milk pseudo “next-gen” versions of a last gen port for the ps6
thats disgusting
@LiamCroft True. Articles like this gets people's attention through Google, fair enough. I think I even came here through one of those "Top 10 RPGs" articles, so yeah people need to understand the biz.
You're missing the part where Rockstar merged all of their studios to make RDR2 under why it's taking so long.
@Mikey856 PS6 isn't coming until 2028 though.
@playstation1995 bully was a cracker, my mate played it once his character got knocked out a few mins after getting outside in the game ,I couldn't believe it lol .
@Splat i played tomb raider back in the day, I'm a fan of female characters aliens and long kiss goodnight, female characters today is insufferable. And the guy was made to look weak in the trailer, I just want a good game.
I cant wait to run people over at the beach.
@Mikey856 still waiting for a game that really pushes the PS5 so dont hold our breathe.
@stefan771 it’ll be 27 won’t it? . That’s the 7 year cycle
@Mikey856
Documents from Sony and MS say 2028. They were declassified as part of the Microsoft FTC court case.
@stefan771 that’s a first then I think for Sony?
Soundtrack is going to be amazing.
Removed - trolling
Literally love to just drive around so can’t wait for a huge map with lots of people, traffic and things to see. Also, will we finally have indicators on cars for full immersion?
I also hope the map isn’t too locked up; inevitably it’ll require progress to unlock it all but I hope much of it is useable and what isn’t, doesn’t require too much gameplay to unlock.
Apparently saying "Rockstar isn't in a rush to release GTA6 because they're making too much money on GTA5", is trolling... But it's true, if people are still spending money on a game that came out in 2013 (despite it being extremely easy to make money) then why would Rockstar rush. I just hope GTA6 has better shooting and better driving and a map that isn't completely empty like GTA5 is.
Meh. I want some serious innovation. GTA4 and GTA5 really weren't all that different to one another. The problem is, Rockstar knows that this game will sell regardless so why bother trying?
@itsfoz Funnily enough, The Getaway on PS1 had functioning indicators.
@LifeGirl I loved that game - definitely due a remaster!
