What time do GTA 6 pre-orders go live?

Rockstar has not confirmed an exact clock time for June 25. PlayStation Store and Xbox Store both default to midnight Eastern Time for major launches — that is the working assumption here. All times below are expected, not official. [INFERENCE from platform norms] Check your storefront directly on June 25 if the window shifts.

Region	Expected time (June 25)	UTC offset	Status
US Eastern (ET)	12:00 AM — midnight	UTC−4	[expected, unconfirmed by Rockstar]
US Pacific (PT)	9:00 PM — June 24	UTC−7	[expected, unconfirmed by Rockstar]
UK (BST)	5:00 AM	UTC+1	[expected, unconfirmed by Rockstar]
Australia (AEST)	2:00 PM	UTC+10	[expected, unconfirmed by Rockstar]
New Zealand (NZST)	4:00 PM	UTC+12	[expected, unconfirmed by Rockstar]
Canada Eastern (EDT)	12:00 AM — midnight (June 25)	UTC−4	[EXPECTED, mirrors US Eastern — unconfirmed by Rockstar]
Canada Pacific (PDT)	9:00 PM — June 24	UTC−7	[EXPECTED, mirrors US Pacific — unconfirmed by Rockstar]
India (IST)	9:30 AM — June 25	UTC+5:30	[EXPECTED, based on midnight ET global unlock — unconfirmed by Rockstar]

All times assume a midnight ET global unlock — standard practice for PSN and Xbox Store on major titles. Rockstar has not published an official schedule. If that changes before June 25, this table updates immediately. Canada follows US timing exactly: Eastern Canada at midnight ET, Pacific Canada at 9 PM PT. India (IST, UTC+5:30): 9:30 AM on June 25.

What Rockstar Actually Confirmed (and What It Didn’t)

Most coverage blurs the line between the wire facts and the guesswork bolted onto them. Here is the clean split. Check the status column before you trust any number you see this week.

What time do GTA 6 pre-orders start? — UK, US & Australia in detail

The table above gives you the at-a-glance times. Here is the regional breakdown for each major market.

What time is that for GTA 6 pre-orders in the UK? 5:00 AM BST — early morning, not launch-night. Set an alarm or check the PS Store / Xbox Store app. In Australia (Sydney), that is 2:00 PM AEST — afternoon of June 25. In New Zealand, 4:00 PM NZST. All expected. Rockstar has not published an official unlock schedule.

Which platforms can you pre-order on June 25?

Two, and only two. PS5 (including PS5 Pro) and Xbox Series X|S. Last-gen consoles — PS4 and Xbox One — are not on the list. Neither is PC. If you own a current console, you are already set; switching hardware for one game rarely pencils out. For a full breakdown of how each console handles the game, see our GTA 6 platform breakdown for PS5 and Xbox.

Can you pre-order GTA 6 on PC?

No. There is no PC version at launch, so there is nothing to pre-order on Steam or the Epic Games Store on June 25. Rockstar has historically shipped its PC ports one to two years after the console launch, and nothing in its current statements breaks that pattern. If PC is your only option, your realistic move is to wait — here is what we know about the GTA 6 PC release window.

Where to pre-order GTA 6 on June 25 — US, UK, and Australia

Rockstar confirmed “digital storefronts and select retailers” — the full list hasn’t dropped yet. Based on every prior Rockstar launch, these are the storefronts to watch. Listings go live June 25. Stick to the names below; anything outside is a red flag. Price appears at each store when listings go live — use the buttons to check the current listing directly.

Digital versus disc is a real choice. Disc lets you resell or lend; digital gives you a midnight preload and no shipping risk. Both sides are broken down in our GTA 6 digital vs physical pre-order guide. Compare what each store throws in over on our GTA 6 pre-order bonuses and editions page.

How to pre-order GTA 6 on June 25

Pre-ordering is quick once listings are live. Have your account and payment ready before June 25 so you are not fumbling at checkout while servers strain. Three steps:

1. Pick your store and format. Digital (PSN or Xbox Store) for an automatic midnight preload, or disc (Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop) for day-one delivery and resale value.
2. Sign in and confirm your platform. Make sure you are buying the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S version — not a last-gen listing if any appear.
3. Place the pre-order and save the confirmation. Digital charges vary by store; most physical retailers charge at dispatch. Note the cancellation window in case editions change your mind later.

The full platform-by-platform walkthrough — including refunds and cancellation rules — is in our step-by-step GTA 6 pre-order guide.

Editions and bonuses: what we know so far

Pre-orders are live but Rockstar has not yet published confirmed edition names, bonus contents, or in-game currency tiers. Check live retailer listings — edition details are expected to appear alongside live pre-order pages. We update this section the moment Rockstar confirms them.

For a ranked breakdown of what bonuses from previous Rockstar launches are worth tracking, see our GTA 6 pre-order bonuses guide.

A confirmed date is when fake pre-order sites appear

Every real launch date doubles as a green light for scammers. The week before pre-orders open is exactly when “early access” ads and lookalike checkout pages spike. The rule is simple. If a storefront isn’t on the authorized list above, walk away — no matter how convincing the page looks. Need to know whether any “early access” offer is even real? See our GTA 6 early access fact-check, then run through the fake pre-order site checklist before you hand over a card.

Does this change the release date?

No. GTA 6 still launches November 19, 2026. June 25 is when pre-orders open, not when the game ships. For the full timeline — and how that date survived earlier delay talk — see our GTA 6 November 19 release date timeline.

How much will GTA 6 cost?

Rockstar has not announced a price. Check live at each authorized retailer — do not trust a specific number from any third-party site.

Check on Amazon

Which platforms is GTA 6 launching on?

PS5 (including PS5 Pro) and Xbox Series X|S. PS4, Xbox One, and PC are not part of the launch lineup.

Will editions and bonuses be revealed before June 25?

Pre-orders are live but Rockstar has not yet published confirmed edition names and bonus contents. Check live retailer listings — details are expected to appear alongside live pre-order pages. We update this entry the moment Rockstar confirms them.

Where is the safest place to pre-order GTA 6?

Any authorized retailer: PlayStation Store, Xbox Store, Amazon (US/UK/AU), Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart, GAME (UK), Argos (UK), EB Games (AU), JB Hi-Fi (AU), or the Rockstar Store. Anything outside that list is a red flag.

Will GTA 6 pre-orders sell out?

It depends on the format. The answer splits three ways:

• Digital (PSN / Xbox Store): Won’t sell out. There is no inventory cap on a digital licence — the listing stays open regardless of demand.
• Physical Standard Edition: Very unlikely to sell out at launch. Major retailers stock heavily for titles this size. Day-one availability at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and Walmart is not a concern for most buyers.
• Collector’s Edition: Likely to sell out within hours — especially at regional retailers outside the US. Limited physical runs and high collector demand mean these go fast once announced.

Set retailer alerts before June 25 and be ready to act the moment the window opens.
