Grand Theft Auto 6 from Rockstar Games hits PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S on November 19, 2026<\/strong>, and people are already arguing about one thing: how long the story actually ought to be.<\/p>\n

Rockstar still hasn’t said how long the campaign is, but the split is easy to see. One group wants a tighter 30- to 40-hour<\/strong> story, closer to Grand Theft Auto V<\/a>, which ran about 32 hours. The other side is hoping for something more in Red Dead Redemption 2<\/a> territory, around 50 to 60 hours, maybe even more, especially now that more than a decade has passed since Grand Theft Auto V.<\/p>\n\n

There was also an unverified leak<\/strong> in August 2025 that claimed a 75-hour main story, broken into a prologue and five chapters, though none of that has been confirmed. If pacing and mission variety matter more to you than sheer size, that’s probably the part to keep an eye on, particularly since a lot of players end up spending more time messing around in Grand Theft Auto’s sandbox and side activities anyway. One stat people keep bringing up says only 22% of Grand Theft Auto V players actually finished the final mission.<\/p>\n\n

Either way, Grand Theft Auto 6 will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S when it launches on November 19, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
