GTA 6 Preorders Go Live Without Trailer 3, Deflating Hopes

ReportedBy GTA6 Times News DeskPublished Jul 4, 2026Last updated Jul 4, 2026, 19:07 UTC

Quick answer: Rockstar opened preorders on June 25, but a third trailer never arrived, IGN reports.

Key facts

  • Preorders for GTA 6 began June 25, 2026.
  • No third trailer accompanied the preorder launch.
  • Standard Edition priced $79.99, Ultimate Edition $99.99.
  • Release date remains November 19, 2026.
  • IGN Pakistan reported on the absence of a new trailer.

Preorders for Grand Theft Auto VI opened on June 25, 2026, across the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store without a third official trailer, IGN Pakistan reports. The absence dampened months of speculation that Rockstar would pair its sales kickoff with a fresh look at Vice City.

Fans had pointed to the preorder date as a logical window for Trailer 3. Instead, the only new assets accompanying the June 25 rollout were updated store listings showing the game’s two editions, Standard at $79.99 and Ultimate at $99.99, and a release date of November 19, 2026. No new gameplay, no story beats, no radio stations.

The silence since the last trailer has left fans hungry for any official footage beyond the brief character introductions of Lucia and Jason. Our full trailer timeline details every video released so far.

The preorder launch without a trailer does not mean a third video is canceled. Rockstar could still drop Trailer 3 closer to the November 19 launch, perhaps at a dedicated event or a random morning on social media. But with preorders already open, the financial urgency to deliver a marketing beat has lessened. Buyers can lock in their copies now with just the promise of what’s already been shown.

IGN Pakistan's piece is an observation of storefronts and fan sentiment, not a confirmation from Rockstar. Without an official statement, the trailer schedule remains unknown. The next video could arrive at any moment, or not until after launch.
