Rockstar Confirms New Bully Release Before GTA 6, Meme is Alive

The list of things we have received before the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI continues with a brand-new Bully-themed release arriving just in time for Christmas.

First expected to arrive by Fall 2025 before being delayed until 26 May 2026 and finally 19 November 2026, Grand Theft Auto VI continues to evade us, always being that little bit out of reach.

However, with November 2026 expected to be the third and final release date for the next entry in the beloved Grand Theft Auto franchise, there is just under a year to go until we head to Vice City and beyond with brand-new protagonists Jason and Lucia.

Until then, the list of things we have received before GTA VI continues to grow, which is unsurprising considering it has been well over a decade since the last entry, Grand Theft Auto V, was released.

Now it seems as though even Rockstar’s abandoned franchise Bully is getting a new release before GTA VI, according to a recent blog post by the studio.

Ahead of the Christmas period, Rockstar has announced its brand-new collection of merchandise, ranging from apparel, collectibles, and more.

Available on the Rockstar Store, heaps of new merchandise is available to purchase and that starts off with The Varsity Collection.

The Varsity Collection consists of crewneck sweatshirts in a variety of colours, “featuring an applique yellow varsity-style Rockstar Games logo”.

Purchasing this sweatshirt will see you also be sent a Rockstar Games Sticker as well as a 32oz Nalgene Water Bottle.

Additionally, completing all three New Listings missions in Grand Theft Auto Online by 7 December could see you earn the in-game version of the Black Rockstar Games Varsity Crewneck.

This includes Bully, alongside Grand Theft Auto III, Manhunt, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Midnight Club: Los Angeles, Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Grand Theft Auto V.

Who knew we would be getting a Bully-themed release before GTA VI?

Alongside this new apparel, Rockstar fans can also get their hands on some exciting collectibles including scented candles which capture the essence of Vice and Liberty City, as well as a doormat, enamel pin collection and much more.

If your loved ones are Rockstar fans, then you should definitely check out this collection ahead of Christmas.

Hopefully this time next year, we will be too busy with Grand Theft Auto VI to even notice.
