Grand Theft Auto VI launches in 1 week. The Game Awards posted "1 week until GTA6" last night, and the countdown passed 11,500 likes within hours. Rockstar Games launches the game on Thursday, November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and the vehicles it has officially named so far range from a 1950s sedan to a mud-ready buggy. Check out the official post down below:
Rockstar has not published a full vehicle list. What it has confirmed comes from the game's pre-order bonus and Ultimate Edition descriptions, which name specific cars, the garages that store them and the mod shops that work on them.
The '55 Vapid Stanier And Shore Court Garage
Every copy bought or pre-ordered before November 20 includes the Vintage Vice City Pack. Its headline vehicle is the '55 Vapid Stanier, a classic sedan that Rockstar's listing describes as made to "cruise Shore Drive." It comes with the Shore Court garage near Ocean Beach, which has a weapon locker and a secure spot to drop stolen goods to be fenced. The pack also includes a vintage pastel linen suit for Jason, a red sequin mini dress for Lucia and a weapon pattern based on Tommy Vercetti's palm tree shirt.
Ultimate Edition Vehicles
The $99.99 Ultimate Edition adds more vehicles:
- '95 Grotti Cheetah: Grotti's mid-90s sports car, described as an "ode to Shore Drive," with a minimalist, retro-futuristic livery, available to "punctuate later-stage action"
- '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy: a "Mud Club monster" built for off-road handling in the backwoods of Mount Kalaga, stored at the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay
- Dinka Enduro: an Army fatigue-tinted motorcycle kept at Jason's safehouse
- Crest Kayak: also parked at Jason's safehouse
- Shitzu Squalo: a pink and blue boat docked at Washington Beach, set up for fishing in Gambit Bay and carrying an explosives-laden weapons crate
Like Shore Court, the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay has a weapon locker and a secure place to deposit stolen goods to be fenced.
Customs, Donks And Off-Road Builds
Jason's own ride is a Vapid Ganado, which Rockstar calls a "well-worn" low-riding pickup. The Ultimate Edition's Ganado Retro Build adds muscle and classic styling to it through exclusive mods.
Only Ultimate Edition owners can use 2 of the game's mod shops. Rideout Customs turns "vanilla vehicles" into show cars with detailed interiors, custom rims and donk styling. One-Eyed Willie's, in Lake Leonida, specializes in off-road modifications and hand-painted automotive artwork.
There is also a special commission from Wyman, an eccentric collector and local fixer. It sends players around Leonida to find abandoned classic cars and unfinished project cars, then restore them.
Launch Times
On PS5, Sony is using a rolling midnight launch by country, starting at 12:00 AM NZDT on November 19 in New Zealand, so US players start at midnight local time. Xbox Cloud Gaming opens the game on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S at 1 AM ET on November 19, which is 11 PM MST on November 18. Pre-loading has been open since November 10 and needs up to 212 GB, and code-in-box copies reach retailers starting today. The standard edition costs $79.99.
The game is set in the state of Leonida, home to Vice City. In Rockstar's words, Jason and Lucia "find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida." The night before launch, the Miami Heat will play the Milwaukee Bucks on a Vice City court at Kaseya Center, airing on the NBA on ESPN at 5 PM MST on November 18.
