2027

PC version — expected, not announced

EXPECTED

Rockstar has not announced a PC date. Historical pattern (GTA V, RDR2) is a later PC port, often on the order of a year. This site labels every PC date EXPECTED until an official listing exists.

2026-10

Broadcast / streaming TV spots

EXPECTED

Rockstar historically floods the last 4–6 weeks. Not confirmed for VI. We will recategorize the moment a buy airs.

2026-10

Magazine / long-form preview wave

EXPECTED

Expected marketing beat, not a scheduled Rockstar event. Do not treat preview embargo dates as launch facts.

2026-11-19

Day-one patch tracker (template ready)

EXPECTED

Placeholder. When Rockstar publishes patch notes we log version, size, and platform notes here. Nothing is invented in advance.
