The Release Desk tracks everything with a date attached to it: the November 19, 2026 launch, pre-order windows, edition contents, platform announcements and the long PC wait. Every claim on a Release Desk page is traced back to Rockstar, Take-Two or a first-party storefront, and anything short of that is labelled.
