Multiple outlets report that pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto 6 may open next week following a leak tied to U.S. retailer Best Buy. The information appears to have come from an email sent to customers, according to NME, with the retailer reportedly revealing the pre-order start date through a message that was not intended to be public. PC Gamer similarly says an errant Best Buy email was sent to several content creators and influencers, suggesting the same timeline may have been circulated beyond the retailer’s planned audience.
At present, the reporting centers on the leaked communication rather than any official confirmation from Rockstar Games or Take-Two. Both sources describe the leak as accidental, implying that the pre-order window had been intended to remain undisclosed until a later announcement. The consistent claim across outlets is that the pre-order launch is expected to occur next week, though the exact date and details are presented as leak-based information.
