GTA 6 in Ireland: release date, price and pre-order

GTA 6 Ireland pre-order at a glance

What the local-midnight estimate means in Ireland

If the storefronts use a local-midnight release model, the planning estimate for Ireland is Thursday, November 19, 2026 at 12:00 am GMT, the first minute of November 19, 2026 in Irish time (GMT). That is 5 hours ahead of New York (where it reads Wed, Nov 18, 7:00 pm local time), the same clock time as London (where it reads Thu, Nov 19, 12:00 am local time) and 8 hours ahead of Los Angeles (where it reads Wed, Nov 18, 4:00 pm local time).

Rockstar has not confirmed that estimate. If it sets a single global unlock or publishes a different storefront schedule, we will replace the estimate with the precise Irish time (GMT) time. The timer above counts to the release date, not an official unlock hour. Compare every market on the unlock-time page.

How much GTA 6 costs in Ireland

At €79.99 Standard and €99.99 Ultimate, the Ireland price is roughly 9 percent above the US $79.99 Standard price once converted. That approximate US figure is about $87 at a reference exchange rate, for relative comparison only, not a checkout amount; the actual EUR total is what the local store charges. The US anchor is the one fully confirmed price: $79.99 Standard and $99.99 Ultimate.

Best way to play GTA 6 in Ireland on a budget

Ireland uses the confirmed eurozone price of €79.99 Standard and €99.99 Ultimate. Rockstar has not announced whether the release will follow local midnight or one global moment, so GMT does not establish earlier access. The Xbox Series S is the lowest-cost compatible console; PS5 and Series X are the higher-spec options. Smyths Toys and GameStop carry them.
