GTA 6 release time in Pakistan: when it unlocks
Short answer: Midnight local time would be 12:00am PKT on 19 November 2026, but Pakistan has no PlayStation Store of its own, so the real unlock depends on your account region: a UAE account unlocks around 1am PKT, a UK account at 5am PKT, a US account at 10am PKT.
