GTA VI pre-orders open: $79.99 Standard, $99.99 Ultimate
Rockstar opened pre-orders with two editions and confirmed that boxed copies contain a download code instead of a disc. Preloading starts November 12; pre-orders get the Vintage Vice City Pack and a month of GTA+.
Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI went live on June 25, 2026 at midnight local time, with two editions: Standard at $79.99 (£69.99 / €79.99) and Ultimate at $99.99 (£89.99 / €99.99). The Ultimate Edition adds extra clothing, vehicles, weapons, locations, and side missions.
Anyone who pre-orders either edition — or buys before November 20, 2026 — gets the Vintage Vice City Pack, a set of items inspired by 2002's GTA: Vice City, plus one month of GTA+.
The surprise: there's no disc. Rockstar said physical copies "will contain a code that can be redeemed for the digital download of the game. A disc will not be included in the box." Boxed copies hit shelves November 12 so players can preload ahead of the November 19 launch.
Notably, no Trailer 3 arrived with pre-orders. Rockstar's next big reveal turned out to be the Extended Look on August 27.
