Rockstar Games has officially announced the launch parameters, edition pricing, and pre-order infrastructure for Grand Theft Auto VI. The highly anticipated single-player experience is scheduled to deploy on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Digital pre-loading is set to commence on November 12, running parallel to a unique physical release strategy where brick-and-mortar boxes containing a digital download code – but no physical disc – will hit retail shelves a week early on November 12 to facilitate pre-loading.

The standard edition of the title will retail for $79.99, while the newly unveiled Ultimate Edition is priced at $99.99. This premium tier integrates an expansive collection of exclusive weapons, vehicles, and custom locations seamlessly into the core narrative chapters of dual protagonists Jason and Lucia. Players opting for the Ultimate Edition unlock restricted map assets including Rideout Customs, Sara’s Unisex Salon, Stock 305 streetwear, and a weapon-fencing safehouse at Paradise Garage, alongside exclusive vehicles like the ’95 Grotti Cheetah and unique ’70s-inspired quest lines.
Pre-orders for all editions officially open on June 25 and automatically grant access to the Vintage Vice City Pack. This early-bird incentive packs a ’55 Vapid Stanier sedan with a dedicated Ocean Beach personal garage, era-specific formal attire, and a signature tropical weapon pattern mirroring Tommy Vercetti’s iconic button-up shirt.
Furthermore, digital pre-orders processed through the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store bundle a free month of the GTA+ subscription service for immediate deployment within Grand Theft Auto Online.
