  • Grand Theft Auto VI — the market puts it at 96%, closing 2 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Grand Theft Auto VI launches completely on any US platform before January 1, 2027. The outcome is No if the game does not meet this deadline or fails to release fully. Readers often mistake pre-release announcements or collector’s editions for an actual full game launch.
