Insider NateTheHate says GTA 6 review codes are out and reviews go live on 18 November. Rockstar has not confirmed it.

Verdict Rumor

On 26 October 2026 NateTheHate, an insider with a track record on GTA 6 timing, wrote on X that Rockstar had begun sending review code to media. He named 18 November as the review embargo, one day before the 19 November launch. The same day Insider Gaming said it could independently verify the reports, without explaining how. On 14 October the outlet had already written that reviews would appear before release, but kept the date to itself because it could still change. No time of day comes from either source. No outlet has said on the record that it has a code, and Rockstar and Take-Two have not commented. If the date holds, buyers get reviews less than a day before they can play.
