Get ready for GTA VI
GTA VI launches on November 19, 2026 and there are only two tickets to Vice City: PS5 or Xbox Series X|S (no PC version announced at launch). Here's which console to pick, where to pre-order and the gear that actually improves the experience.
1 · Pick your console
GTA VI is confirmed only for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. PC players will have to wait: Rockstar has always shipped the PC version later.
PlayStation 5
The classic road to Vice City
- Any PS5 works: Standard, Slim, Digital or Pro
- The DualSense adds adaptive triggers and haptic feedback
- Chasing max power? PS5 Pro is the premium pick
Xbox Series X|S
The most flexible entry
- Series X: the full 4K experience
- Series S: the cheapest ticket to day one
- Quick Resume and easy storage expansion
2 · Pre-order the game
3 · Complete the setup
None of this is mandatory — but every piece helps you live Leonida the way it deserves.
4K 120 Hz TV
HDMI 2.1, HDR and game mode: the city at the visual level Rockstar has been building for years.
Gaming headset
Vice City sound done right: engines, 80s radio and firefights with proper direction.
Wireless controller
A second controller (or a spare with real battery life) for Leonida marathons and couch co-op.
Expansion SSD
GTA VI will be huge. An NVMe for PS5 or Xbox's expansion card means never deleting anything.
Gaming chair
For the long sessions without wrecking your back. Your spine plays too.
