GTA 6 Pre order date and time speculation for all regions

GTA 6 fans may have been disappointed by the shift to a May 2026 release after promising a Fall 2025 release window. While there was still some disappointment, people were excited when Trailer 2 was released unexpectedly. Though at this moment pre-orders are not active, the option to wishlist is available on the PlayStation Store. This means that they will likely have pre-orders open around October-December 2025 as we get closer to the new release date.

It was December of 2023, when we first got a proper update of GTA 6 in the form of a trailer. However, since then, Rockstar Games kept everything dry when in the beginning of this month, the company finally revealed the actual release date of the game. Instead of getting happy, fans became disappointed as the recently revealed release date wasn’t that release window which was initially promised.The Trailer 1 of the game stated a fall 2025 release window of the game. However, GTA 6 is now slated to be released on May 26, 2026, triggering a huge delay. But all the disappointment turned into excitement when the developer shadow dropped the Trailer 2 out of nowhere. Now, every detail about the game is available, except the pre-order process.

Pre-ordering is an exciting way to get into the queue very early than the rest. In the case of GTA 6, this queue is going to be very long for sure. Pre-ordering not only guarantees a copy of the game, but also grants additional benefits like extra in-game rewards, early access, and many more. However, if you are pre-ordering something, then you have already given all of your trust into the company, and now if anything goes wrong, you can’t turn back. But for GTA 6, that is not going to be the case, because it is slated to become probably the biggest gaming title of all time. To pre-order, the game needs to be in the pre-ordering scheme first, which Rockstar hasn’t yet availed for GTA 6. That means players can not pre-order right now. However, the PlayStation Store has allowed its users to wishlist the game, confirming no delays will happen again. It also makes sure that GTA 6 is a reality now. But that doesn’t seal your chance of playing the game at all.If the initial release window was to be followed, we would have already got the opportunity to pre-order the game. But as the release date has been pushed to May 2026, that’s not the case anymore. According to current trends in the gaming world, we might expect the game to be available for pre-ordering around 5-8 months before the actual release of the game, that means around October-December 2025, we might get to pre-order the game. However, there are retailers available already, where players can pre-order the game, but they are not trusted authorizations at all.Read More: Everything we know about GTA 6 so far
