GTA 6 Release Date: Current Predictions Suggest Late 2026 Launch

Prediction markets on Kalshi show a 79% probability that GTA VI will launch before 2027, with the scheduled November 19th release date now being closely watched by fans and analysts alike.

Part 1

Prediction markets operated by Kalshi indicate a 79% chance that Grand Theft Auto VI will release before 2027, according to an analysis published on Deadspin. The data shows that market participants assign less than 1% probability to a release before June 2026, 3% before August 2026, and 79% to a pre-2027 launch — strongly supporting the currently scheduled November 19th, 2026 window.

GTA VI has already been delayed twice: first from late 2025 to May 2026, and then to its current November 2026 date. Rockstar's history with GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 suggests that further delays remain possible, though market sentiment currently leans toward confidence in the November release.
