For readers tracking grand theft auto vi, the latest confirmed update is the reveal of two limited-edition PS5 DualSense controllers. The game and both controllers are scheduled to launch on 19 November 2026, with UK pre-orders for the controllers opening on 10 September at 10am local time.

PlayStation reveals black and white GTA VI DualSense controllers

Sony and Rockstar Games have unveiled two themed DualSense wireless controllers: a black edition and a white edition. Both have a shimmering, colour-shifting finish inspired by Vice City, along with moulded palm-tree details and official Grand Theft Auto VI branding, according to PlayStation’s announcement.

The controllers also feature the “VI” logo on their touchpads. The design includes palm-tree detailing around the grips, while the Grand Theft Auto logo appears on the back, as reported by IGN. The black version is styled around Vice City’s nightlife, while the white version is presented as a daytime-themed design.

The official recommended price is £74.99 in the UK. The listed prices for other markets are $84.99 in the US, ¥12,480 in Japan including tax, and €84.99 in the eurozone, according to PlayStation.

UK pre-orders open on 10 September

In the UK, pre-orders will begin through PlayStation Direct at 10am local time on 10 September. PlayStation says the white controller will be sold in limited quantities through direct.playstation.com and participating retailers, while the black edition will be available exclusively through direct.playstation.com where available and through selected retailers in other regions. The availability details come from PlayStation’s purchase information.

The controllers are due to launch on 19 November, the same date given for Grand Theft Auto VI. The Verge reports that the controllers will launch alongside the game, while IGN says buyers will not receive them until the game’s release.

What is confirmed about the game and PS5 connection

The supplied announcements establish a 19 November release date for the game, but they do not provide further details here about its launch-day editions, UK game pricing, or availability on other platforms.

PlayStation says Grand Theft Auto VI will use the PS5 DualSense controller’s haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. It describes these features as responding to the action and providing dynamic resistance during Jason and Lucia’s story, according to the PlayStation Blog.

IGN also reports that PlayStation has said the game will “play best” on PS5 and will use the console’s speakers, haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and Tempest 3D AudioTech. However, IGN’s report says no GTA VI console bundle was confirmed by Sony or Rockstar. As a result, the confirmed hardware announcement is limited to the two DualSense controllers.
