GTA 6 Price: How Much It Costs on PS5 and Xbox by Country

How much is GTA 6?

As of 15 November 2026, Grand Theft Auto VI costs $79.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 for the Ultimate Edition in the United States, on both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S ^[1][9]. Those are the official prices Rockstar Games confirmed on 24 June 2026, ahead of pre-orders, and the US store page still shows the same figures on 15 November ^[1][9].

The US PlayStation Store page, opened on 15 November, still shows $79.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 for the Ultimate Edition ^[1]. Microsoft's own store listing, embedded in an Xbox Wire post on 10 November, shows the same $99.99 for the Ultimate Edition ^[10]. The game unlocks on 19 November 2026, and it is not on sale for PC ^[8].

For many players the first number in the headline is not the whole story. The price changes by country, the two editions contain different extras, a box from a shop does not contain a disc, and anyone without a current console has to add the hardware. The sections below take these one at a time.

This guide focuses on cost. For launch times by city, see the Pouyam guide GTA 6 Countdown: Unlock Time in Your City and US Time Zone. For pre-loading, edition basics and launch scams in one place, see GTA 6 Launch Week: Preload, Editions, Price and Scam Safety.

How much does GTA 6 cost in my country?

Each PlayStation Store region sets its own price, so the table below lists what the store pages showed on 15 November 2026 rather than a currency conversion ^{[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]}. The prices are for the digital pre-order on PS5 and include the pre-order extras described further down.

The UK store lists £69.99 for the Standard Edition and £89.99 for the Ultimate Edition ^[2]. The German store lists €79.99 and €99.99 ^[3]. The Turkish store lists 3.999,00 TL and 4.999,00 TL ^[4]. Brazil lists R$449,90 and R$549,90 ^[5], India Rs 5,999 and Rs 7,499 ^[6], and the UAE store 299.16 AED and 373.96 AED ^[7].

Two rules matter more than the exact figure. First, the price you pay is the price of the store your console account is registered to, not the country you are sitting in. Second, a PlayStation code bought in another region must match the region of your account, or it may not activate, according to Rockstar's support page ^[8]. Rockstar says Xbox codes are not region-locked, but it still recommends buying from a retailer in the same country as your account ^[8].

Readers in Iran, Azerbaijan and Russia should note that Rockstar's list of PlayStation code regions does not include those countries ^[8]. A cheaper price in another store is only useful if your account belongs to that store, and the guide on unlock times explains why the account region also sets your launch time.

What is the difference between GTA 6 Standard and Ultimate Edition?

The Standard Edition is the full game; the Ultimate Edition is the same game plus an in-game bundle of vehicles, weapons, businesses and clothing, and it costs $20 more in the US ^[8][9].

Rockstar's support page lists the Ultimate Edition Upgrade contents. They include the '95 Grotti Cheetah, Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers, personalised weapon variants, Vice City styles, Jason's safehouse vehicles, the Rideout Customs mod shop, Sara's Unisex Salon, the Stock 305 clothing store, a '67 Vapid Dominator buggy with a garage, the Electric Fang tattoo parlour and a classic car collection ^[8]. Rockstar says these bonuses are spread across Jason and Lucia's story, with new items unlocked in each chapter ^[8].

The important detail for anyone unsure is that the Ultimate Edition Upgrade can be bought later. Rockstar says Standard owners can buy it as a digital add-on from the PlayStation or Microsoft store at any time, including physical buyers once their code has been redeemed ^[8]. Rockstar has not published a separate price for the upgrade on its support page, so check the store before you buy it.

Whether the extra $20 for the Ultimate Edition is worth it depends on how much you care about the bonus vehicles, businesses and clothing listed above.

What do you get for pre-ordering GTA 6?

Digital pre-orders and purchases of either edition made before 20 November 2026 include the Vintage Vice City Pack and one month of GTA+ membership ^[8]. The PlayStation Store and Microsoft listings give 19 November 2026 as the last day for this offer ^[1][10].

Rockstar lists the Vintage Vice City Pack as a '55 Vapid Stanier sedan with a garage, outfits and hairstyles, and an exclusive weapon pattern ^[8]. The PlayStation Store page adds a note that the GTA+ month must be claimed by 31 March 2027 and that the subscription auto-renews ^[1]. Microsoft's listing says the GTA+ month must be redeemed within 180 days after the pre-order ^[10].

The auto-renewal is the part that costs money later. If you only want the free month, open your subscriptions page after claiming it and switch renewal off, or set a reminder before the month ends. The store pages tell you to check the game and legal information on the listing for the exact terms ^[1].

Physical pre-orders include the Vintage Vice City Pack but not the GTA+ month, according to Rockstar's list of what each version contains ^[8].

Is there a GTA 6 disc, and is the boxed copy cheaper?

No disc exists: the physical version of GTA 6 is a box with a download code inside, and Rockstar says a disc will not be included ^[8]. Retailers began shipping it from 12 November 2026 ^[8][12].

The boxed copy is still useful for some buyers. It can be bought with cash or given as a gift. But the game itself is downloaded in full, so you need the same internet connection and storage space as a digital buyer. PlayStation's UK support page lists the physical code-in-box version as one of the available editions and tells players to keep 212 GB of storage free ^[13].

There is no physical Ultimate Edition ^[8]. A boxed Standard copy can be upgraded later with the digital Ultimate Edition Upgrade once its code has been used ^[8].

Because the code is tied to an account region on PlayStation, a box imported from another country can fail to activate on your account ^[8]. Check the region printed on the box against your account country before you open it, and buy from a shop in the same country when you can.

How much does it cost to play GTA 6 from scratch?

If you do not own a current console, the game is the smaller part of the bill: Sony's recommended US prices since 2 April 2026 are $599.99 for the PS5 Digital Edition, $649.99 for the PS5 and $899.99 for the PS5 Pro ^[14]. Adding the $79.99 Standard Edition brings the cheapest PS5 setup at these list prices to $679.98 before tax ^[1][14].

In the UK, Sony's recommended prices are £519.99, £569.99 and £789.99, and in Europe €599.99, €649.99 and €899.99 ^[14]. These are list prices; individual shops can sell for less, and the Pouyam guide PlayStation Black Friday Sale 2026: Dates and PS5 Deals tracks whether any console offers appear this month.

Xbox One owners have a different route. Microsoft says GTA 6 can be streamed through Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox One from 01:00 ET on 19 November, but the game must still be purchased separately ^[10]. From 11 November, players in supported markets can buy cloud playtime without a Game Pass subscription ^[10]. Streaming avoids the storage problem but depends on a fast, stable connection.

Owners of an older PS4 have no route: Rockstar lists only PS5 and Xbox Series X|S ^[8].

Will GTA 6 get cheaper, and where is the safest place to buy it?

As of 15 November 2026 the store pages checked show no discount on GTA 6, so the price shown there is the launch price ^[1][9].

The safest places to buy are the PlayStation Store, the Microsoft Store and established retailers in your own country. Netcraft, a security company, found GTA VI-themed sites in a report published on 3 November 2026 that asked for money upfront, offered fake early access or tried to sell the game for PC, a version that does not exist ^[11]. One site in that report offered the game on any platform for $199 in cryptocurrency ^[11].

Use a simple check before paying anywhere else. The price should be close to the store prices in the table, the seller should be a known shop, and the product should be the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S version that matches your account region. Any offer of a PC copy, a mobile version, an early unlock or a key paid in crypto is a red flag.

Finally, make sure the console has room: the pre-load needs up to 212 GB ^[12][13].

What is confirmed and what is not?

Confirmed as of 15 November 2026: the $79.99 and $99.99 prices, the local store prices in the table, the contents of both editions, the pre-order extras, the code-in-box physical version and the 19 November release on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S ^[1][8][9].

Not confirmed: a standalone price for the Ultimate Edition Upgrade on Rockstar's support page, any launch discount, any console bundle and any PC version ^[8]. Rockstar's support page lists only PS5 and Xbox Series X|S as platforms ^[8].

Prices can change, and the PlayStation Store pages show the amount for the store your browser or account is set to. If a figure in this guide differs from what you see, the store page you are buying from is the one that counts.
