On November 5, Rockstar Games published The Launch Gallery, a new set of GTA 6 screenshots on its official website, exactly two weeks before the November 19 launch. Outlets count the images differently, with reports saying 38, 39 or “nearly 40”, so we use “nearly 40”. Confirmed
What the screenshots show
Reporting on the gallery describes a wide mix of scenes:
- Jason and Lucia in action shots, quieter moments and car chases.
- Several regions of Leonida, including Vice City, Grassrivers, the Leonida Keys and Port Gellhorn, according to TweakTown.
- Nightlife and crime scenes, with German outlet Krit Gaming describing clubs, raids, dives and Jason with a fighting dog.
- New locations and characters, which Kotaku says the batch teases.
We are not reproducing Rockstar’s images here. You can see them on Rockstar’s official site, and our own graphics on LeonidaNews are original illustrations.
The fuel-nozzle image
One image has sparked debate: it shows Jason holding a fuel nozzle. At least one outlet reads this as a hint that vehicles may need refuelling or recharging. Rockstar has not said whether fuel is a mechanic, so treat that as speculation. Unconfirmed
What the images do not confirm
Screenshots are marketing material. They can show locations and characters, but they do not tell you how a mechanic works, whether a scene is a cutscene or gameplay, or which platform captured it. For what has been confirmed by previews, see our guides to gameplay and the Leonida map.
Where it fits in the final stretch
The gallery follows Rockstar’s earlier image releases, including the 12 screenshots tied to Edge’s October 29 cover story. It arrived two days after the pre-load announcement, which we covered in GTA 6 pre-load starts November 10.
