GTA 6 leads Edge 430 with a 16-page Rockstar cover story
The new issue features a 16-page Rockstar interview and bespoke GTA 6 imagery, with the full feature due online for free on October 29.
The latest issue of Edge magazine puts Grand Theft Auto VI on its cover, with a 16-page feature built around an interview with Rockstar Games at the studio’s Edinburgh headquarters.1 The issue goes on sale on October 29, and the full feature is due to become available to read online for free through GamesRadar+ on the same day.1
The cover story is being presented as a substantial look at Rockstar’s long-awaited open-world game rather than a small preview. According to GamesRadar, the feature includes exclusive interviews and new imagery, while its gatefold cover focuses on the game’s two lead characters, Jason and Lucia.1 That makes the magazine issue notable even though the report does not yet disclose a full list of new gameplay details.
What the Edge 430 feature includes
Edge 430 is the latest promotional beat in the long build-up to GTA 6. GamesRadar describes the project as Rockstar’s most ambitious yet and says its team visited the developer’s Edinburgh headquarters for the cover feature.1 The magazine’s campaign artwork places Jason and Lucia beside a red car, matching the issue’s focus on the game’s protagonists.
The print issue will be available from October 29. UK readers can also access a collector’s-edition subscription offer, while readers elsewhere are being directed towards a digital edition bundled with annual subscriptions.1 Those offers are commercial promotions, so the free online feature is the more useful part for readers who simply want the interview and accompanying images.
The official Edge page is already highlighting the issue as a GTA 6-led edition, confirming that this is a planned magazine campaign rather than an unverified social-media tease.2 Rockstar has not, through the material currently available, announced that the magazine feature changes the game’s release plans or confirms any new playable systems.
Our opinion
This is exactly the sort of GTA 6 update that can feel bigger than it is. A 16-page Rockstar interview and bespoke imagery are meaningful access, but the announcement is still selling the arrival of a magazine feature, not delivering a new trailer or a release-date change. The sensible expectation is a useful collection of developer comments and artwork, rather than a sudden flood of launch-critical information.
Still, the timing makes Edge 430 worth watching. With the issue launching on October 29 and the feature promised online for free, readers will not need to buy into the subscription offers to find out whether Rockstar has shared anything genuinely new. Until that feature is published, the headline takeaway is simple: GTA 6 is leading Edge 430, and Jason and Lucia are getting the full cover-story treatment.
