Grand Theft Auto VI: Pricing, Editions, and Preorders

Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. To date, neither Rockstar Games nor its parent company Take-Two Interactive has disclosed official pricing for the game’s various editions. The only available figures come from third-party analysis firms and media reports.

#What is the official price of Grand Theft Auto VI?

Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive have not revealed any official pricing. On November 12, 2026, Rockstar Mag published a hypothetical example of a €80 price in France to illustrate revenue distribution: €13.33 would go to VAT, roughly €20 to platform fees (PlayStation Store or Xbox Store), leaving approximately €46.67 for the publisher. This €80 figure is not confirmed as the actual retail price. According to GeeksLands, citing Sensor Tower, the average preorder price for digital copies stands at around $97 per unit, driven by the popularity of the Ultimate Edition.

#What editions are available, and what do they include?

Rockstar unveiled the special editions on June 18, 2026. The Ultimate Edition includes in-game bonus content such as clothing, hairstyles, locations, missions, tattoos, vehicles, and weapons. All preorders, regardless of edition, grant access to the Vintage Vice City Pack, inspired by Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) and its protagonist, Tommy Vercetti. Preorders opened on June 25, 2026, with Take-Two describing sales as "unprecedented and astonishing," noting that most buyers opted for the Ultimate Edition. Physical versions, available in stores since November 12, 2026, include download codes instead of discs to prevent leaks and resale. Preloading began one week before launch. Rockstar confirmed to Kinda Funny that no microtransactions will be present at launch, regardless of edition.

#How much do the required consoles cost?

To play Grand Theft Auto VI, players need a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S. As of November 12, 2026, GamesWirtschaft.de reports the Xbox Series S priced at €499 (512GB model) or €599 (1TB model) at MediaMarkt, while Amazon and Otto had no stock. The PlayStation 5 Digital Edition starts at €599. The Xbox Series X Digital Edition has a suggested retail price of €749.99, and the disc-based version at €799.99, though these models are rarely available at these prices—third-party sellers often list them above €900 to €1,000.

#What are the preorder and revenue estimates?

Sensor Tower, whose data was cited by GeeksLands, Fun Radio, and Rockstar Mag on November 12, 2026, estimates 10.31 million digital preorders across PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, generating over $1 billion in revenue. The day prior, the estimate was 9.69 million copies for $942 million, and a week earlier, 7.71 million for $751 million. PlayStation 5 accounts for 75% of reservations, or 7.73 million copies, compared to 2.58 million on Xbox. These figures are not validated by Rockstar or Take-Two. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick told Yahoo Finance that preorders "far exceed" initial expectations, without providing official numbers. Sensor Tower estimates the average spend per player at around $97. Newzoo projected in July 2026 that first-week sales could reach $3.3 to $5.2 billion.

#Is there a PC version?

No Windows release is planned at this time. According to Wikipedia, no PC port has been announced as of October 2026. The game will, however, be playable on Xbox One via Xbox Cloud Gaming.
