GTA VI Pre-Orders: Prices, Bonuses and the Box
GTA VI’s pre-order announcement puts Standard at US$79.99 and Ultimate at US$99.99. But the detail to notice before buying a boxed copy is the format: there is a download code inside, with no disc.

Take-Two announced pre-orders on June 24, with orders opening the following day at local midnight. The US prices are launch reference prices; this page does not track current regional deals.
What the extra edition buys
Ultimate bundles additional story items, including vehicles, weapons and clothing. That makes the decision about extras you want to use. The announcement does not sell Ultimate as an early-access edition. The buying guide covers the edition and upgrade choices in more detail.
The bonus has a later cutoff than pre-order day
The announcement includes the Vintage Vice City Pack with purchases before November 20, 2026, and a GTA+ month for digital pre-orders. You do not have to pick Ultimate to qualify for the pack. For the exact digital and boxed eligibility, use Rockstar’s support terms.
A November 12 download, a November 19 release
Digital preload begins November 12. Boxed copies are also scheduled to become available from that date to support downloading in advance. If you want the packaging, factor the retailer’s delivery timing into your plans: the box still leaves a download to do.
