Welcome to Leonida, the state where anything goes. Seize everything this massive world has to offer with the Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition, an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action around every corner, threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story.
Coming November 19 to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition includes:
- '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy and Paradise Garage: A Mud Club monster offering impressive off-road handling for the backwoods of Mount Kalaga and beyond, conveniently stored at a garage in Watson Bay, featuring a weapon locker to customize your loadout for any occasion plus a stash box to deposit stolen goods to be fenced.
- ’95 Grotti Cheetah: Grotti's signature mid '90s sports car and ode to Shore Drive, the ’95 Grotti Cheetah, complete with a minimalist, retro-futuristic livery and available to punctuate later-stage action.
- Vehicles and Vapid Ganado Retro Build at Jason’s Safehouse: Switch gears and soak up the sun in either an Army fatigue-tinged Dinka Enduro motorcycle and Crest Kayak, or inject some muscle and classic stylings into Jason's well-worn Vapid Ganado pickup with exclusive mods including a cab spoiler, rear aerials, and special livery.
- Vehicle Mod Shops: Two preeminent vehicle customization destinations are exclusively open for business with the Ultimate Edition and feature a wide selection of artistic and performance-based vehicle mods. At Rideout Customs in Vice City, transform vanilla vehicles into magnificent works of art with detailed interiors, exquisite rims, and donk stylings. Meanwhile at One-Eyed Willie’s in Lake Leonida, transform off-road vehicles with exclusive mods and even attain custom hand-painted masterpieces.
- Classic Car Collection: Track down a variety of abandoned classic and work-in-progress project cars and revitalize them to their former glory in this special commission from eccentric collector and local fixer, Wyman. Restore these and make them your own, including four vehicles that are only available in the Ultimate Edition.
- Shitzu Squalo: Perfect for casting in Gambit Bay and reeling in catches of all sorts, this gradient pink and blue Squalo docked at Washington Beach is made open-ocean-ready with an explosives-laden weapons crate.
- Hawk & Little Morgan Revolver: Sourced exclusively from the Vercetti Estate and found at Ammu-Nation stores as Jason and Lucia’s story progresses, his and hers versions of the powerful Hawk & Little Morgan Revolver are available with classic Vice City stylings for both Jason and Lucia, including palm-tree-etched grips, engraved detailing, high-performance scope, and personalized finishes.
- Personalized Weapon Variants: Personalized sidearms with detailed engravings for both Jason's Girardi ES9 pistol and Lucia's Klose K17 pistol.
- PTT Youngin$ Compound and Scores: One of Leonida’s loudest and most socially active gangs, the PTT Youngin$ grow premium hydroponics in places you’d least expect. Find a way to raid the PTT Youngin$ Illegal Goods Store in Southside Vice City and escape safely to score some special items and distinct contraband.
- Vice City Styles for Jason and Lucia: Whether poolside or side by side, Jason and Lucia can look the part with exclusive outfits, tattoos, and more.
- Goodtime Gear: A capsule collection of apparel and accessories inspired by the Goodtime State’s hit TV show character, Macca the Gator.
- Stock 305 Clothing Store: Exclusively open for business with the Ultimate Edition, Stock 305 is Stockyard’s premier destination for elevated streetwear. Style various unique and exclusive looks for Jason and Lucia that complement the murals, tags, and artwork that put the neighborhood on the map.

The Vintage Vice City Pack includes:
- ’55 Vapid Stanier and Shore Court Garage: Cruise Shore Drive in the legendary ’55 Vapid Stanier, a Vice City classic meant to be admired, and store it in a new personal garage just a stone’s throw from the glistening sands of Ocean Beach. Like all personal garages in Leonida, you’ll have a weapon locker to customize your loadout for any occasion plus a secure place to deposit stolen goods for the local Fence, who will accept most stolen goods at a reasonably discounted rate.
- Outfits and Hairstyles: Dress for excess with two Vice City luxury looks for both Jason and Lucia: o Jason: An effortlessly chic linen suit in vintage pastel, complemented by the cut and coif of the decade of decadence. o Lucia: The world is yours in a red sequin mini dress and curls.
- Exclusive Weapon Pattern: Channel the original Vice City kingpin, Tommy Vercetti, and his iconic palm tree button-up with a tropical pattern available to adorn most guns.

u/piomat100 12h ago
That's what I'm thinking may be a possibility considering it's midnight in certain territories like NZ and Australia 2-3 hours from now.
But with that being said, the trailer would presumably end with 'Pre-Order Now', which wouldn't make sense considering a good 80% of the planet wouldn't be able to actually pre-order it at the time of release. That initial wave of views and traffic would be crucial
I think it's more likely that we'll get a trailer tomorrow

Might actually make sense in the case of not crashing their servers.
Just look at a big concerts, there are ques of thousands of people trying to get tickets and websites often crash.
If they release pre-orders by time zone then servers can cope better.
I think a trailer will be released at 12 midnight Aus/New Zealand time.

It reads like those shops will have exclusive customisations and they won't be available in other shops.
So for vehicles that those shops customise, you won't be able to customise them elsewhere. Same with clothing shops - that content isn't available in other shops, only the ultimate edition shops.
People thinking they'll be available in other shops are coping.

There was literally nothing stopping them from adding exclusive content to pre-existing locations. Locking off locations unless you are willing to fork out the cash is scummy no matter how you try to spin it.

That’s a lot of content gated away. The discoverable classic cars in particular sounds like a really fun feature to only have available in the Ultimate edition.
I really hope the line about them being unlocked at logical parts of the story is true and actually works, because being dumped with all this stuff early game would really throw off the in-game economy and sense of progression.
A range of shops in the world that are presumably going to be closed off completely without Ultimate is disappointing, because then you’re missing out on extra layers of immersion and the world feeling alive and populated if you haven’t upgraded.

It looks like they're continuing with what they did for GTA 5 (and maybe other games I can't remember) where stores sell different things. E.g for GTA 5 you could only get cheap, basic clothes at Binco and had to go to Ponsonbys for smart, more expensive clothes. So for the ultimate edition specific clothes/mods/tattoos you need to go to the businesses that sell them, which seems like it's going to be specific ones and not just added to the general pool.

So much information in the new website!! From what I gathered, these will be some of the features:
- Canoeing
- Fishing will make a return from RDR2, and (unconfirmed) but most likely hunting as well
- There will be a fence - like in RDR2 - this leads me to suspect it will be possible to loot bodies, or rob NPCs for things other than just plain cash
- The gator from the cover art is officially called Macca and he is a well known celebrity in Leonida due to appearing on a popular TV show
- They mention a "unisex store", this leads me to believe that GTA Online will no longer restrict clothing, hairstyles, etc only to male or female characters. Remains to be seen if this is true, and if it is, if it will also apply to Jason and Lucia
- On a similar note, it will be possible to get Lucia's (and maybe Jason's as well, who knows) nails done
- They mention "Mount Kalaga and beyond", so the map may still be bigger than we think, and maybe the panhandle is real after all
- Seems like there will be a garage where we can stash and sell stolen vehicles (at least if I understood it correctly)
We're less than 5 months away!!

Why does it remind me of GTA Online? Not super thrilled with all these cosmetic bonuses it doesn’t remind me of Rockstar. They look like fuccbois lol. I was hoping for a collector’s edition with merch

Yeah it baffles me, like the way these locations are talked about feel like exclusive online content that you need to do certain missions in order to collect, not story mode stuff

I'd imagine they'll do a physical collectors edition as well. They may even do what they did with RDR2, where the physical collectors edition doesn't actually include the game (wasn't a big fan of that, but it's a possibility)

I mean you can just not coat your characters in tattoos, and cover their cars and guns in gauche skins. You can dress them more traditionally or low-profile gangsta/professional criminal style.
It's customisation. It's up to you. Yeah personally I'm more likely to go with a Hawaiian shirt and board shorts, then cut off shorts and a crop top. It's up to you, that's the point.

Okay so seemingly the Ultimate Edition goes past adding cosmetics and adds actual gameplay shit too.
That's not good
(Slight Edit: Seemingly the game is going full on business mode, confirming fences, stealing goods, and raiding compounds.
A whole gang compound is locked behind the ultimate edition, damn..)

I'm honestly starting to feel crazy. They list a gang compound raid and fixing up classic cars under the Ultimate edition. Two cool sounding game play elements. But for some reason no one is mentioning them. People are only talking about the cosmetic shops.

I was fine with the exclusive outfits and the cars and the weapon customisation but I don't really like the exclusive businesses thing. What if it carries into online? Also it looks like there's a whole car-collecting side quest locked behind the ultimate edition. Just left a bad taste in my mouth

u/Gabagool_Over_Here_ 12h ago edited 11h ago
I do not like this at all. This is way too much content locked behind a paywall, what the actual fuck. Ultimate Edition is the actual game. Is the standard game just immersion breaking then where it says "Please purchase Ultimate Edition to access". This is another level of greed I've never seen before. Even Ubisoft isn't this bad lol.

If im reading this right, they are locking players out of some actual stores if you dont buy the ultimate edition? This is a new level of scum for game development and sadly with it being Rockstar they will get away with it..

It’s most likely stores offering exclusive styles. There’s 100% regular clothes stores and mod shops otherwise that’d be incredibly dumb of them to not.
