This is not a drill – Rockstar Games has finally announced that pre-orders for GTA 6 are to begin imminently.
After years without any news, speculation about when Trailer 3 could release, price rumours and more, plenty of unanswered questions are about to be put to bed.
If you can't wait to get your hands on GTA 6, then you'll want to make sure you've got your copy locked and loaded to go for when it arrives later this year.
So, for all the details on the GTA 6 pre-orders, including when they open, here's what you need to know.
When do pre-orders start for GTA 6?
GTA 6 pre-orders will go live on 25 June 2026.
At the time of writing, Rockstar hasn't confirmed an exact time for when pre-orders will go live, though we have a few options.
First things first, pre-orders could simply go live at midnight, with the game going up for sale as soon as the clock ticks over to 25 June, though we do think this is unlikely.
Instead, we think that the game will probably go on sale in the afternoon.
When Red Dead Redemption 2 first opened for pre-orders in 2018 – yes, it really was that long ago – they went live at 4pm.
The actual announcement that pre-orders were set to go live took place at 2pm, while previous trailers for the game have gone live at 3pm.
As such, while we don't have a concrete start time as of yet, we think it's safe to assume that pre-orders will go live in the afternoon of 25 June.
