GTA 6 price: Standard vs Ultimate Edition, pre-order bonus and the disc-less box
How much GTA 6 costs, what each edition includes, the pre-order bonus and why the physical edition does not come with a disc.
Rockstar revealed the GTA 6 price before opening pre-orders on June 25, 2026. There are two editions and no collector’s edition.
Price of each edition
| Edition | US price | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $79.99 | The full game |
| Ultimate | $99.99 | The game + premium vehicle collection, weapons, clothing, items and a hair salon with exclusive cosmetics |
Prices in other currencies depend on each store and country, so check the final price on the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store or your usual retailer before paying.
If you buy the Standard Edition and change your mind, Rockstar has confirmed you will be able to upgrade to the Ultimate Edition after launch. Everything that edition unlocks is detailed in our customization guide.
Pre-order bonus: the Vintage Vice City Pack
Every pre-order, of either edition, gets the Vintage Vice City Pack on launch day. Outlets do not fully agree on the deadline to claim it, so if you want it, the safest option is to pre-order before November 19.
The physical edition has no disc
This is the change that surprised people the most: the GTA 6 box contains a download code, not a Blu-ray disc. That means:
- You will have to download the whole game even if you buy it in a store.
- The PS5 code is region-locked; the Xbox one is not. If you buy a box from another country for PS5, make sure it matches your account’s region.
- You cannot resell it like a disc once the code is redeemed.
There is no collector’s edition
Rockstar has only announced the Standard and Ultimate editions. Any “Collector’s Edition” you see for sale is fake or an unofficial bundle. Watch out for social media ads and unknown stores.
Which one is worth it?
- Standard: enough to enjoy the full story. The right choice for most players.
- Ultimate: only if you want the cosmetic extras and vehicles from day one.
Before you buy, check when you can pre-load and how much space you need, and if you are buying for a teenager, read our parents’ guide to the age rating.
