What each edition includes
| Edition | US price | Format | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $79.99 | Digital, or boxed with a download code | The full single-player game |
| Ultimate | $99.99 | Digital only | The game plus extra in-game content for Jason and Lucia's story |

Pre-orders and purchases made before 20 November 2026 include the Vintage Vice City Pack, and digital pre-orders include one free month of GTA+ (it renews at the normal price unless you cancel) Official. Our Standard vs Ultimate comparison breaks down the extras.
Does the physical copy cost less?
The list price is the same. The boxed Standard Edition contains a download code rather than a disc, according to Rockstar Support, so you still download the whole game. Physical copies do not include the free month of GTA+, and PlayStation codes only work on accounts from the same region as the store that sold them. The main reason to buy boxed is a retailer discount or a gift.
The full cost if you need hardware
If you do not own a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S yet, the game is the smaller part of the cost. Console prices have changed since launch in many countries, so treat these as a guide and check current prices:
| Setup | What you buy | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cheapest | Xbox Series S 512 GB + Standard Edition | GTA 6 takes more than half the storage. A 1 TB Series S avoids that |
| Most common | PS5 or PS5 Digital + Standard Edition | Over three quarters of pre-orders are on PS5, according to one analysis |
| Best performance | PS5 Pro + Standard or Ultimate | PS5 Pro Enhanced, 2 TB of storage |
| Add storage | 1 TB M.2 SSD (PS5) or 1 TB expansion card (Xbox) | Only if you keep many large games installed |

Is GTA 6 on PS Plus or Game Pass?
No. GTA 6 is not part of PlayStation Plus or Xbox Game Pass at launch, so you need to buy it. You also do not need either subscription to play the single-player game. More detail in is GTA 6 on Game Pass?
Why does GTA 6 cost $79.99?
Rockstar has not explained its pricing. Take-Two's chief executive has praised pre-order demand without sharing numbers, and the price sits $10 above the usual top price for console games. Regional prices are set to local market conditions, which is why the Canadian and Australian prices do not match a straight dollar conversion.
How GTA 6 compares with past Rockstar launch prices
| Game | Launch year | US launch price (standard) |
|---|---|---|
| GTA IV | 2008 | $59.99 |
| GTA V | 2013 | $59.99 |
| Red Dead Redemption 2 | 2018 | $59.99 |
| GTA 6 | 2026 | $79.99 |
The $20 jump over GTA V looks large, but it is close to inflation over 13 years, and the industry moved its top console price to $69.99 in 2020. GTA 6 is $10 above that newer standard.
Buying from another region
Prices differ a lot between regions, so some players look at cheaper stores abroad. Be careful. A PlayStation game must be bought on an account from the same region as the store, and PlayStation physical codes only redeem in matching region groups (the UK is its own group). Xbox codes are generally not region-locked, but Microsoft's terms still apply to accounts and payment methods. Using a VPN or fake address to buy can break store terms and risk your account. Buying from your own region's store or a local retailer is the safe option.
When to buy
If you want the Vintage Vice City Pack, buy or pre-order before 20 November 2026. If you want to play the moment the game unlocks, pre-order digitally so the game can pre-load from 12 November 2026. A digital pre-order does not lock you in: you can usually cancel through the store's refund rules before release. If you are happy to wait, prices on big games rarely drop much in the first months, so there is little to gain from holding off for a sale.
