Following the release of the latest GTA 6 trailer, anticipation for the highly awaited title has reached a fever pitch, with recent reports suggesting that pre-orders will become available next week.
Gamers have been speculating about Grand Theft Auto VI for a considerable time, and a new leak is fueling further discussion. Online reports indicate that Best Buy has inadvertently revealed the game’s pre-order date. Given the immense popularity of GTA 6, which is arguably one of the most anticipated games ever, this potential pre-order window, over a year after the second trailer from Rockstar Games, has quickly spread across the internet.
The impending release of pre-orders for GTA 6 is a significant event for the franchise’s dedicated fanbase. Historically, when pre-orders for highly sought-after games go live, websites can experience heavy traffic, leading to potential downtime and widespread fan frustration, as seen with previous major releases. This makes the rumored pre-order date particularly noteworthy. The alleged leak originated from a content creator named Frogboyx1gaming.
During a YouTube live stream, as reported by IGN, the creator reportedly received an email intended for his affiliate account from Best Buy, indicating that GTA 6 pre-orders would be open from May 18th to May 21st. This information has been corroborated by the verified X account @GTA6Alerts, which is known for providing countdowns and news leading up to the release of Grand Theft Auto VI. Screenshots purportedly from Best Buy affiliate accounts, shared by followers, appear to support these claims.
It is important for fans to understand that while previous leaks have proven accurate, neither Best Buy nor Rockstar Games, the usual source for such announcements, has made an official statement. Therefore, this leak should be treated with caution until an official confirmation is released by either party.
