Rockstar Games has finally revealed the official cover of Grand Theft Auto VI and confirmed one of the most anticipated dates for fans. Pre-orders for GTA 6 will begin on June 25, marking a new step towards the release of the most awaited title in the industry.
The announcement was accompanied by a brief 30-second promotional video posted on the official channels of Rockstar. Although many were expecting a new trailer, the company clarified that this is solely the presentation of the cover art.

The opening of pre-orders will also reveal one of the biggest questions surrounding the game: its official price.
In recent months, multiple rumors have circulated about the value that GTA 6 might have. Some speculations suggest it could cost more than traditional industry releases due to the enormous investment made during its development.
So far, Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive have not confirmed official figures, so the start of pre-sales could finally clear up that uncertainty.
What the official cover of Grand Theft Auto VI shows
The new promotional illustration prominently features the two main protagonists of the story: Lucía Caminos and Jason Duval.
Both are surrounded by various elements that represent the criminal and action universe that will characterize this new installment.

In addition to Lucía and Jason, the cover features several characters already known from previous trailers.
Among them is Boobie Ike, one of the most important businessmen and nightclub owners in Vice City within the story.
Also identifiable is Raúl Bautista, an experienced bank robber who will play an important role in the plot and will cross paths with the protagonists.
Another detail that caught the attention of fans was the presence of a woman wearing a necklace that says "Siempre," a character whose identity has not yet been officially revealed.
Take-Two seeks to justify the game's value
In a conference held this year, the CEO of Take-Two Interactive, Strauss Zelnick, spoke about the company's pricing policy.
