Rockstar Games has added GTA 6 to the Xbox Store, and fans are discussing a possible upcoming announcement. The game page went live recently, allowing Xbox Series X|S players to view key art, trailers, and screenshots and download a small placeholder file. This move follows PlayStation users adding the game to their wishlists months ago.
The placeholder download weighs in at 328.76MB, but trying to launch it only briefly shows the game’s artwork before closing and asking if you own the game or app. So, it’s not playable yet, but it suggests something might be around the corner.
Many are wondering if this means pre-orders will soon be available. Comments online include questions like “Pre-orders coming soon?” and eager remarks such as “Can’t wait to preorder.” While Rockstar hasn’t confirmed anything about pre-orders yet, the Xbox Store update is fueling speculation.
Before this, Rockstar released the second GTA 6 trailer and shared screenshots, which PlayStation users could immediately add to their Wishlists. Xbox players have now caught up with this new Xbox Store page, which is visible both on consoles and via the official website.
Details remain scarce beyond leaks and insider claims, so Rockstar will likely reveal more trailers and information as the May 26, 2026, launch date approaches. For now, fans can at least see the game’s storefront on Xbox and download that placeholder file, which is fun if you enjoy a little tease.
