Rockstar opens the GTA 6 Launch Gallery: dozens of new screenshots, two weeks before launch

News · November 5, 2026

What happened: on November 5, 2026, Rockstar posted "Explore the Grand Theft Auto VI Launch Gallery" on its Newswire. Rockstar says the game is "now officially only two weeks away" and that the new screenshots give "a stunning look at Vice City and beyond." The gallery is on the official GTA VI site.

What's in it

How many: Gematsu counts "nearly 40" new stills; Beebom counts 39.
Jason and Lucia: GameSpot describes shots of the pair at a nightclub, at the dive bar The Rusty Anchor and at the gym, where Jason is on the bench press.
Action: per GameSpot, there's an airboat alligator hunt at night, police closing in on a superyacht, and Jason leaning out of a car window with a rifle while police helicopters chase him.
Places: Beebom groups the shots into Vice City, Port Gellhorn, the Leonida Keys and the Grassrivers.

How sure is this?

The gallery itself is official, straight from Rockstar. The scene descriptions above come from GameSpot and Beebom, who looked through the images. Screenshots don't tell you how missions or systems work, so don't read too much into any single shot. Some fan sites are trying to spot real people in the pictures; Rockstar hasn't said anything about that, so we're leaving it out.

What it means for you

This is a good, spoiler-light look at Leonida before launch. Want to stay spoiler-free? The gallery is screenshots only, no story footage. Digital pre-load opens November 10 (PS5 at midnight local time; Xbox from 7 p.m. ET on Nov 9), needs up to 212 GB, and GTA VI launches November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
