GTA 6 could shake up not only the gaming world but also the sneaker scene when it launches on November 19, 2026. A new report highlights a surprising collaboration between Rockstar Games, Nike, and U.S. rapper Travis Scott. The leak claims three distinct Nike Air Force 1 models will launch, each priced at $130. The potential release date is notable: the shoes are said to arrive on the same day as Grand Theft Auto VI. However, the involved companies have not provided official confirmation.
GTA 6 Is Set to Get Three Exclusive Nike Sneakers
The rumor originated on the Romanian sneaker platform Sneaker Market RO and was later picked up by RockstarINTEL and the sneaker magazine Sole Retriever. According to the report, the collection is called Cactus Jack x Rockstar Games x Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07.
The classic Nike Air Force 1 Low, one of the American sportswear manufacturer’s most famous sneakers, will serve as the base model. A total of three colorways are set to be released:

- Black / Fire Pink: predominantly black with pink accents
- White / Fire Pink: white base with pink details
- Multi-Color: a multicolored version with various accents
The color palette aligns with the vibe of GTA 6 shown so far. Rockstar’s marketing highlights Vice City’s atmosphere with bold colors, neon lights, and a modern take on Miami. However, there’s one major catch: no official product images have been released yet.
It’s still unknown how much Rockstar influenced the design, which logos will appear, or whether the shoes will include special in-game details.
Each pair is listed at $130, with sales set to begin on the GTA 6 release date.
The alleged release date is particularly interesting. According to reports, all three models are set to launch on November 19, 2026, the same day Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled to arrive on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Each pair is listed at $130.
Sneaker magazine Sole Retriever has even published specific product numbers: JJ7602-100 for the white pair, JJ7604-001 for the black pair, and JJ7603-900 for the multicolor pair.
Those numbers add weight to the rumor, but they are not official confirmation. Release plans for Germany, including a euro price, Nike availability, or SNKRS app support, remain unconfirmed.
The production run remains unconfirmed. If the collaboration happens and supply is limited, the sneakers could quickly appeal to collectors, though resale prices are impossible to predict.
Travis Scott had already hinted at a collaboration with Rockstar back in September
The potential collaboration isn’t entirely surprising. On September 15, Travis Scott sparked discussion with an eye-catching Instagram post. He shared a teaser whose design strongly resembled GTA 6 and directly tagged Rockstar Games.
Even then, fans wondered whether he would only contribute music or if a broader partnership was taking shape. We covered that in our article “Travis Scott Hints at GTA 6 Collaboration and Directly Tags Rockstar Games.”
Since then, his involvement in GTA 6’s music has solidified: his track “RHYNO” is part of the game’s promotional campaign. A sneaker line would be a natural next step.
Scott has long collaborated with Nike and Jordan Brand, and his Air Jordan drops are among the best-known projects of his Cactus Jack label. However, his existing partnership with Rockstar does not confirm the rumored GTA 6 sneakers.
Additional apparel items are reportedly in the works.
According to Sole Retriever, the collaboration could expand further. In addition to the three Air Force 1s, additional apparel is expected. Discussions are underway for multiple collections: a joint line from Travis Scott, Nike, and Rockstar, plus a second version that might include the NBA’s Miami Heat.
The potential Miami tie-in is notable because the city inspired Vice City, GTA 6’s main setting.
Such a collaboration could help Rockstar link the game world even more closely to real-world music, sports, and fashion culture. Neither the Miami Heat’s participation nor the rumored shoe collection has been officially confirmed, and no concrete product images or retail prices for the apparel have surfaced.
Rockstar is already selling its own GTA 6 merchandise
Rockstar often launches merchandise alongside new releases.
In early October, the company unveiled its own GTA 6 collection. The line features T-shirts, caps, accessories, and Vice City–themed collectibles. We covered the launch on October 8 in our article “GTA 6 Gets a New Collection and Rockstar Is Now Selling Special Fan Merchandise.”
The rumored Nike sneakers, however, would differ significantly from typical gaming merchandise. While T-shirts and collectibles primarily appeal to existing fans, a collaboration with Travis Scott could also reach people who are normally less interested in video games. Limited-edition sneaker releases, in particular, sometimes develop a momentum of their own on social media.
Fans discuss new designs, track release dates, and resell highly sought-after models soon after they launch. That buzz could give Rockstar extra exposure even if the shoes are not traditional gaming merchandise.
GTA 6 Advertising Is Getting Bigger
Rockstar is now visibly investing in an extensive advertising campaign. Particularly impressive is a gigantic GTA 6 advertisement on a skyscraper near Paris. On October 30, a new drone video drew attention, showing the installation up close.
Our report from yesterday, “GTA 6 Takes Over Paris and Spectacular Drone Video Shows Huge Ad,” illustrates the scale the campaign has now reached. Eye-catching promotional campaigns are also popping up in Miami, directly alluding to the atmosphere of Vice City. Against this backdrop, a sneaker collaboration would be another way to get people talking about GTA 6 outside the video game industry itself.
Rockstar is deliberately mixing classic advertising spaces, music, merchandise, and pop culture in its marketing. However, the rumored sneakers will only be confirmed as part of that strategy once Rockstar or Nike makes an official announcement.
Rockstar and Nike Have Not Yet Confirmed the GTA 6 Sneakers
Fans should treat these details with caution, however, because neither Rockstar Games, Nike, nor Travis Scott’s brand Cactus Jack has officially unveiled the collection. The reported three colorways, $130 price tag, and joint release date come from sneaker-industry reports.
It is unclear whether the shoes will even carry visible GTA 6 branding.
If the reports are true, the collaboration would mark an unusual move for the brand. Special collector’s editions and fan merchandise are standard for major video games, but a joint shoe collection with Nike and Travis Scott would link gaming and streetwear on a new scale. The planned GTA 6 release is set for November 19, leaving only a few weeks.
If the shoes are indeed set to launch on the game’s release date, an official announcement should be imminent. For now, fans are left with an intriguing question: Would you spend $130 on a pair of GTA 6 sneakers, or would that already be too expensive for a pair of shoes? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
