Pre-ordering GTA VI: what you get and when you can download
Оновлено: 2026-08-13 · англійською
In short
Pre-orders opened at midnight local time on June 25, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. After that, four dates are worth remembering.
| What | When |
|---|---|
| Pre-orders open | since June 25, 2026 |
| Digital pre-load | from November 12, 2026 |
| Discs in shops (code inside) | from November 12, 2026 |
| Game launches | November 19, 2026 |
| Purchase bonus still granted | until November 20, 2026 |
What a pre-order gets you
The Vintage Vice City Pack — items that “flash back to when the neon burned brightest”. One detail is often reported wrong: the pack goes not only to pre-orders but to anyone who buys the game before November 20. There is no need to rush in the first days just for the pack.
A free month of GTA+ — included with digital pre-orders.
Ultimate Edition — a separate edition with premium vehicles, weapons, apparel and content “threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story”. More in the piece on editions; on money, see the price.
Disc or digital
The difference is not only the medium:
- Digital pre-loads from November 12, so the game is on the console before the 19th. Plus the month of GTA+.
- Physical copies go on sale November 12 with a download code inside the box — stated outright in the announcement. So the disc is about pre-loading too, not about playing offline.
Is a pre-order worth it
Practically: a pre-order buys no early access, and the cosmetic pack reaches launch-day buyers as well. What it does buy is pre-loading and the money already set aside.
Separately: GTA VI has had its date moved twice — see the delays. Pre-ordering months ahead is a bet that a third move will not happen.
Where to order
In your platform’s own store, or via the official game page. We link no key resellers: the lower price there has reasons, and the refused refund would be yours to argue.
