While the release of GTA VI is officially set at November 19, 2026 on PS5 And Xbox Series X/San unusual offer is making headlines. In Norway, the distributor Komplett promises to offer the game for free to parents whose child will be born precisely on the day of its release.
The ad was spotted on Instagramwhere the company issued a clear message: “It’s no joke, GTA VI comes out in nine months, and if you have a baby on release day, we’ll give you the game.” Enough to make fans smile… and perhaps motivate some to plan a birth to coincide with that of the most anticipated game of the decade.
A 100% Norwegian operation
Be careful though: This offer only applies to Norwegian residents. This is neither an official Rockstar Games operation nor a global partnership, but rather a local initiative from the e-commerce site Komplett, used to offbeat viral campaigns.
To be eligible, you will need to provide proof of birth on the exact date of November 19, 2026. No additional details on the terms (choice of platform, physical or digital formats) have yet been specified.
A well-calculated marketing wink
The originality of this offer obviously rests on the fact that the release of the game is planned exactly nine months from now – or the duration of a typical human pregnancy. A perfect coincidence, exploited with humor: “Make a baby, get GTA VI for free”summarizes an Internet user on Reddit.
The post triggered hundreds of reactions. Some people point out the absurdity of wanting to play GTA while parenting. Others say they have already juggled between a bottle and a controller. A mother reacts: “When you have a newborn, you DO NOT spend your time playing video games.”
GTA 6, between rumor and impatience
Officially confirmed for November, GTA 6 already arouses monstrous anticipation. No PC release date has been announced, leading some gamers to consider purchasing a console just to get to it in time. This unusual offer comes at the right time to maintain the enthusiasm. Whether taken seriously or not, it proves to what extent GTA has become a cultural phenomenon capable of inspiring new marketing campaigns… and perhaps a few surprise babies in Norway.
