How much it costs
GTA 6 price and editions (US)
GTA 6 arrives in two digital editions at US stores: Standard at $79.99 and Ultimate at $99.99. No mid-tier deluxe edition this time — just the two.
| Edition | Price (digital, US) | What is included |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $79.99 | The full game (story mode) + preorder bonus on purchases through Nov 20 |
| Ultimate | $99.99 | Everything in Standard + digital extras (the complete item list is on the official store page) |
| Physical | Set by retailer | Disc + a printed Leonida map poster in the box, per Rockstar; prices vary by store |
Preorder bonus: through November 20
Buy any digital edition through November 20 — yes, including the Standard — and you get the preorder bonus Rockstar announced. Translation: even buying on launch day or the day after still gets you the extra.
How the Ultimate upgrade works
Bought Standard and having second thoughts? Per the official stores, you can pay the difference later and upgrade to the Ultimate Edition — no need to buy the game twice.
Is the Ultimate worth it?
Depends on your plans. The extra $20 buys the digital extras — more relevant if you intend to stick around when GTA 6 Online arrives down the road. Story-only players are well served by Standard.
Watch out for "too good to be true" offers
After you buy, the next move is the preload: the game weighs up to 212 GB and the download is already open. See the full guide.
