Current date is the official date on record
Rockstar’s GTA VI page has switched to Pre-Order Now, and the official PlayStation and Xbox stores now expose preorder listings. In the US, Standard is listed at $79.99 and Ultimate at $99.99; both store pages list the Vintage Vice City Pack and one month of GTA+ for eligible preorders. Install size and preload timing are still not posted, so check your regional official store before buying. Any future date change will be listed with its source, date, and practical player impact.
Wishlist first, preorder June 25
Rockstar now points to June 25 for GTA VI preorders. Until official store listings publish price, preload, edition, and install-size details, the safest launch prep is to wishlist on your console store and avoid unofficial preorder claims.
