Last verified Oct 7, 2026
GTA 6 launches on Thursday, November 19, 2026 Confirmed. The the United States PlayStation and Xbox store listing carries a release time of Nov 19, 05:00 UTC, which is 10:00 PM on Wednesday, November 18 (UTC-7) in Denver. That is midnight at UTC-5, not at Denver's own UTC-7, because the listing uses one time for the whole store country. Unconfirmed
This comes from the store pages' data, seen on 2026-10-07, not from a printed statement, and Rockstar has not published a timetable. Treat it as the best current evidence, and trust your own store's countdown over this page. Unconfirmed Denver is number 39 of 46 places on this site to reach the unlock.

Clock changes before launch
Denver changes its clocks on November 1, before launch: they go back one hour. The times above already use the new offset (UTC-7). If you set a reminder before November 1, check it again afterwards, because an alarm set in UTC or in another city will not follow your local change.
