Welcome Back to Vice City: The Details

Setting a course for the sun-drenched, neon-soaked state of Leonida, Grand Theft Auto VI promises the most immersive, massive evolution of the franchise yet. Following the high-stakes story of criminal duo Jason and Lucia, the game is a single-player epic built from the ground up for current-gen hardware.

Rockstar has confirmed that the game will officially launch on November 19, 2026, for the PlayStation® 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Editions & Pricing Breakdown

Rockstar isn’t holding back, offering a couple of ways to secure your day-one experience:

• Standard Edition ($79.99 / ~£65): The core single-player experience that is set to redefine open-world gaming.
• The Ultimate Edition ($99.99 / ~£80): For the hardcore fans looking to dominate Leonida from day one. This edition amplifies the experience with an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, and apparel integrated directly into Jason and Lucia’s journey.
