About

About this unofficial GTA 6 UK fan guide

Slam the Brakes is a small, independent website about the Grand Theft Auto VI launch.

Disclaimer

Slam the Brakes is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or connected to Rockstar Games, Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., Sony Interactive Entertainment, Microsoft, or any official retailer named on this site. Official names, marks and titles are used only to identify the game and services this guide discusses. We do not use official logos, key art, trailer footage or other copyrighted marketing assets.

Always treat official pages as the authority if anything here disagrees with them or becomes out of date. We link out so you can check.

Age rating

This site is intended for adults. Grand Theft Auto VI is an adult-rated game. The Xbox Store in the UK and major UK retailers we checked list it as PEGI 18. Do not buy or play it if you are under the required age, and follow the rating on the official store or packaging.

How monetisation works

The site is built to support two ordinary fan-site income methods, both disclosed:

Affiliate links. Some retailer links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through them, we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. Those pages also carry a short note next to the links.
Display advertising. There are no display ads on the site yet. If a network is added later, this page will be updated and the ads will be clearly labelled.

Editorial choices — which official facts we include, which retailers we list, what we refuse to invent — are not for sale. If we cannot verify a price, date or product claim, we omit it or label it as unconfirmed.

What we will not invent

No PC release date, no unofficial platform confirmations, no guessed menu-by-menu console instructions, and no made-up prices. Today’s confirmed platforms are PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with Xbox Cloud Gaming (including Xbox One) described in Microsoft’s 10 November 2026 announcement.

Name and domain

The site is called Slam the Brakes, and it lives at slamthebrakes.com. The name and domain do not contain “GTA”, on purpose. The guides themselves are clearly about GTA 6 / Grand Theft Auto VI for UK players.

Questions about the official game should go to Rockstar Games, PlayStation, or Xbox — not to this fan site.
