The GTA 6 Game Informer cover story lands Tuesday, September 29, 2026. Digital issue 382 opens with 14 pages of interviews with Rockstar Games designers, original artwork of Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, and 12 previously unseen screenshots.
What happened?
The magazine confirmed the GTA 6 Game Informer package on September 25 in Marcus Stewart’s reveal: Grand Theft Auto VI is the month’s cover. Stewart spoke with several Rockstar lead designers about how the studio built Leonida and Vice City. Print copies reach subscribers and newsstands in the following weeks. The game launches November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Three threads:
- advanced weather systems, including Florida’s less sunny phenomena
- a staggering amount of wildlife on land, in the air and in the water
- research in Miami and across Florida
Why the GTA 6 Game Informer story matters
Rockstar usually stays quiet until the final stretch. A 14-page cover with unseen shots is the clearest sign the studio has shifted into a pre-launch push. Weather and wildlife change how you move through the open world.
What changes in practice
Digital subscribers can read the feature today. The physical issue needs a subscription or a newsstand. The 12 screenshots only appear with the magazine. Geekiki is not reproducing the exclusive images.
