GTA 6: Price and differences between its two editions

Grand Theft Auto VI will be available in two editions: Standard and Ultimate Edition. Both include the full game, but the higher-priced version features additional vehicles, weapons, clothing, and businesses.

The game is scheduled to launch on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Here are the international prices, the differences between both editions, and which version is worth buying.

How much does GTA 6 cost?

The official prices in the United States are:

• Standard Edition: US$79.99.
• Ultimate Edition: US$99.99.

The price difference between both versions is US$20. Prices may vary depending on the country and digital storefront due to regional pricing adjustments and applicable taxes.

What does each GTA 6 edition include?

Standard Edition – US$79.99

This edition includes the full game, featuring Jason and Lucia's story in Leonida.

Purchases made before November 20, 2026, also include the Vintage Vice City Pack, which contains:

• A 1955 Vapid Stanier vehicle and a garage.
• Additional outfits and hairstyles.
• An exclusive weapon skin.

Eligible digital purchases also receive one month of GTA+ membership.

Ultimate Edition – US$99.99

This edition includes the full game and the Ultimate Edition Upgrade pack, which adds extra content integrated into the story.

Its main additions include:

• Vehicles: 1995 Grotti Cheetah, Shitzu Squalo, and 1967 Vapid Dominator Buggy.
• Weapons: Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers and customized weapon variants.
• Customization: exclusive Vice City outfits and styles.
• Businesses: vehicle modification shops, Sara's Unisex Salon, and Electric Fang Tattoo Parlor.
• Other content: a garage, a classic car collection, and the PTT Youngin$ Compound.

These additional items are distributed throughout the chapters of Jason and Lucia's adventure.

Can the Standard Edition be upgraded to the Ultimate Edition?

Yes. Rockstar allows players to purchase the Ultimate Edition Upgrade separately through the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store. This means players who initially purchase the Standard Edition can access the additional content later without buying the game again.

Will GTA 6 have a physical edition?

Yes, although the Standard physical edition will not include a disc. The box will contain a digital download code to access the game.

For now, Rockstar does not offer a physical version of the Ultimate Edition. However, players who purchase the Standard physical edition will be able to buy the digital upgrade after redeeming their game code.

Which GTA 6 edition is worth buying?

The Standard Edition at US$79.99 is enough for players who want to enjoy the main story without paying for additional content.

On the other hand, the Ultimate Edition at US$99.99 is aimed at players who also want access to exclusive vehicles, weapons, businesses, and customization items.

With a US$20 price difference, the decision depends on how much players value these additional features. Neither version offers a different main storyline: both provide access to the same adventure featuring Jason and Lucia.
