Widely regarded as the most anticipated video game of the year—and perhaps of the entire current console generation—Grand Theft Auto VI is set to mark a historic moment for the gaming industry. Developed by Rockstar Games, the sixth main entry in the iconic Grand Theft Auto series has captured global attention years before its release, fueled by massive expectations, official reveals, and ongoing speculation.
After several previous delays, Rockstar Games has officially set November 19 as the release date for Grand Theft Auto VI on current-generation home consoles. The announcement has reassured fans who have been waiting patiently, as the title is expected to push technical boundaries and redefine open-world game design, much like its predecessors did at the time of their release.
According to well-known industry journalist Tom Henderson, there are currently no plans for any further delays. Henderson dismissed recent rumors suggesting that the game might face another postponement, stating that development is progressing as scheduled and that Rockstar is confident in meeting the November launch window.
He also addressed speculation surrounding the game’s pricing. Contrary to reports claiming that Grand Theft Auto VI would launch at an unprecedented $100 price point, Henderson clarified that these claims are inaccurate. Instead, the game is expected to release at a standard premium price of $80, aligning with current AAA pricing trends for major next-generation titles.
With its confirmed release date, clarified pricing, and strong confidence from industry insiders, Grand Theft Auto VI appears firmly on track to become one of the most significant releases in gaming history. As November approaches, anticipation continues to build, with fans worldwide eager to experience what could be Rockstar Games’ most ambitious project to date.
