It has been nearly three years since the first automobile-focused trailer of Grand Theft Auto VI was released, and since then, excitement around the game has only intensified. The trailer has now accumulated an astounding 283 million views on YouTube, clearly showing the immense anticipation among fans. Fortunately, the long wait is nearing its end, as Rockstar Games announced on Wednesday that pre-bookings for GTA VI will officially commence on June 25.

Although the GTA series is widely recognized for its expansive narratives, criminal underworlds, and dynamic open-world gameplay, car enthusiasts have their own reasons to be thrilled. The early trailers and promotional visuals have spotlighted a massive variety of cars, trucks, and motorcycles, along with extensive customization options. This suggests that GTA VI could deliver the most comprehensive automotive experience in the franchise’s history.

Reports indicate that GTA VI will feature at least 300 vehicles at launch, with the number expected to rise significantly through future online updates. The in-game automobiles are fictional interpretations of real-world models; so far, players have spotted designs inspired by vehicles like the Dodge Charger, Ford F-150, Porsche 911, and Ferrari Testarossa.

Gamers opting for the Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition will gain access to a special selection of premium vehicles, weapons, outfits, and other integrated content tied to the storylines of protagonists Jason and Lucia. This version will likely appeal to players keen on building their ultimate virtual car collection. Rockstar has also announced an incentive for early buyers: those who pre-book or purchase GTA VI prior to November 20 will receive the exclusive “Vintage Vice City Pack,” which includes items inspired by the neon-lit charm of the classic Vice City era.

The official launch of the game is scheduled for November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Players purchasing the digital edition can begin pre-loading from November 12, ensuring immediate access once the servers go live. Physical copies will also be available starting November 12 and will include a download code, allowing pre-loading before launch day.

Whether your excitement lies in exploring the storyline, immersing yourself in the vast open world, or simply cruising through Vice City in a collection of virtual luxury cars, the countdown to GTA VI has officially begun. For further details, visit rockstargames.com/VI.
