Why GTAVIMod exists

Grand Theft Auto VI is the most anticipated game of the decade, and that brings a flood of noise: fake pre-order pages, recycled leaks presented as news, and "release time" posts that contradict each other. GTAVIMod was built to cut through that. Every guide on this site separates what Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive has actually announced from what is only rumored, and each page shows the date it was last checked.

Our tools are practical. The countdown converts the expected midnight unlock into your own time zone, so you know whether you are playing on Wednesday night or Thursday morning. The edition picker lays out the Standard and Ultimate Editions side by side and asks four questions to help you decide. The launch checklist remembers what you have already done, from freeing up storage to turning on automatic downloads for the November 12 pre-load. The region explorer walks you through the six parts of Leonida that Rockstar has named so far.

After launch on November 19, this site will add progress trackers and reference databases built from the released game. Until then, everything here is based on official announcements and clearly labeled where details are still unknown.
