What Rockstar still has not told us about GTA 6, with launch days away
With launch days away, Rockstar has confirmed the date, the price, the platforms and the pre-load. It has not confirmed a PC version, an online mode, the install size, unlock times or story length. Every open question in one place, with what we do have.
With Grand Theft Auto VI days from unlocking on November 19, Rockstar has told us a lot and left a list of gaps. Confirmed: November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, pre-load from November 10, $79.99 Standard and $99.99 Ultimate, a boxed edition with a download code instead of a disc. Not confirmed: everything below.
We keep this page because the same questions arrive every day, and because a lot of what circulates as fact is somebody else's report. Each item says what is missing and what we do have. When Rockstar answers one, we will move it into the launch guide and mark it here.
Platforms and online
A PC version. Not announced. The launch is console only. Rockstar's last two games came to PC later: GTA V about 19 months after consoles, Red Dead Redemption 2 about 13 months after. A GamesBeat report in October put a PC version in early 2027. That stays Reported until Rockstar says it. The full picture is in Will GTA 6 be on PC?
An online mode. Not announced. Take-Two has described GTA VI as a single-player experience twice, in June and at its September shareholder meeting, and the store pages list one player. GTA Online followed GTA V by two weeks in 2013. Rockstar has not said whether anything similar is planned. See Is GTA 6 online multiplayer?
Co-op. Not announced. You play both Jason and Lucia yourself and switch between them. Nobody else joins.
The download and the unlock
The install size. Not confirmed by Rockstar. The reported 210 GB comes from PlayStation Store data posted on October 27. There is no Xbox figure. Our advice has not changed: clear about 260 GB. Details in How big is the GTA 6 download?
The pre-load clock time. Now answered. Rockstar confirmed on November 3 that pre-load opens on November 10: at midnight local time on PS5, and at 12 a.m. GMT worldwide on Xbox.
Unlock times. Not published by Rockstar. Our unlock times come from the PlayStation Store's own availability timestamps: midnight Eastern in the US and Canada, which is 9 PM Pacific on the 18th, and New Zealand first. Microsoft has not published an Xbox schedule.
The review date. Reported, not announced. Reports point to November 18. Rockstar and Take-Two have said nothing. See When do GTA 6 reviews come out?
The story
How long it is. No official figure. Rockstar North's Rob Nelson told The New York Times his playthrough took about 80 hours, including optional goals. There is no story-only number. See How long is GTA 6?
How Lucia got out of prison. Rockstar says only that luck did it. Eve has five more Lucia questions on the same list.
How it ends, and how many endings. Not said. Edge reports the Criminal Profile affects how the story unfolds, and Nelson spoke of optional goals with narrative consequences. Neither is an ending count.
The world
An area figure for the map. Rockstar told Edge that Leonida has nearly as much land as GTA IV, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 combined, and Edge puts it at roughly twice GTA V. Rockstar has not published square miles. Our map is built from official material and fan mapping.
The full radio lineup. Six stations have been previewed, from Flash FM to The Chamber 106.6. Rockstar has not said whether that is all of them, and tracklists and hosts are still missing. See the radio stations page.
Rideable horses. Not shown. Bama has a guess. It is a guess.
Buying property. Not described. Jason and Lucia have an apartment, and the Ultimate Edition includes a safehouse. Rockstar has not described a property system like earlier games had.
The biker gang's name. Rockstar's Ambrosia text mentions "a local biker gang" and stops there. Ruby read what their clothes say instead.
What we will do
The Take-Two results on November 9 are the next scheduled chance for a new official answer, and pre-load day is the one after that. We will update this page the same day either one tells us something. If you see a claim that is not on this page, check the sources page for where it came from before you share it.
Quick answers
What has Rockstar not confirmed about GTA 6?
A PC version, an online mode, the install size, the pre-load clock time, unlock times by region, a review date, story length, a full radio lineup, rideable horses and property buying. Everything on that list is either unannounced or reported by others.
Has Rockstar confirmed the GTA 6 file size?
No. The reported 210 GB comes from PlayStation Store data, not Rockstar, and there is no Xbox figure. Clear about 260 GB to be safe.
Has Rockstar confirmed the GTA 6 unlock times?
No. The times on our unlock page are the PlayStation Store's own availability timestamps, compiled by fans. Rockstar has not published a schedule.
Are there horses in GTA 6?
Not confirmed. No horse has been ridden in any trailer, screenshot or the Extended Look.
