GTA 6 - all you need to know about Rockstar's blockbuster game

The highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI has officially been unveiled, with Rockstar revealing key details about the blockbuster game set to launch on November 19. Pre-orders for GTA 6 opened on June 25, with the game priced at £69.99 in the UK and $79.99 in the US. The ultimate edition, featuring additional content, is available for £89.99 and $99.99.

Rockstar reports that development costs for the game likely exceed $1 billion (£866 million). The launch trailer showcased protagonist Jason and Lucia's missions, and French electronic artists Justice composed the original score. GTA 6 will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and has not yet been confirmed for PC or Nintendo Switch 2.

The game will feature the first playable female protagonist in a 3D setting, Lucia, alongside Jason, in a Bonnie and Clyde-style adventure across the fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida.
