A gatefold cover and a 16-page feature

British magazine Edge has confirmed that its issue #430, the Christmas 2026 special, is giving GTA 6 the full treatment: a double-sided gatefold cover featuring protagonists Jason and Lucia, plus a 16-page feature packed with details on the game's production, according to reporting from gaming outlet GTABoom.

Edge's staff traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland, to visit Rockstar North — the lead studio behind GTA 6 — where they conducted exclusive interviews with members of the development team and were given bespoke screenshots created specifically for the feature.

Free online access starting October 29

While the full feature is reserved for print and digital subscribers, Edge confirmed the content will go online for free starting October 29, 2026, via GamesRadar+, as outlined in GTABoom's coverage of the announcement.

The feature arrives just weeks ahead of GTA 6's launch, slated for November 19, 2026 — the date Edge itself references as the backdrop for devoting its Christmas issue to the game.

The latest in a run of magazine exclusives

Edge's feature is the latest in a string of major editorial exclusives covering GTA 6 published over recent weeks. Game Informer dedicated its issue #382 to the game's world, detailing the dynamic weather, wildlife, and Rockstar's research trips through Florida.

Literary and cultural magazine LOVE, in issue #27, offered a perspective on the writing process behind characters Jason, Lucia, and Raul, while Dazed covered the game's look and the pressure surrounding its development. Bloomberg Businessweek, meanwhile, published an investigation into the project's eight years of development, leadership changes, and record budget.

Each outlet covered different ground, and according to GTABoom's report on the announcement, Edge is expected to dig specifically into how the game was built inside Rockstar North.
