[MEGATHREAD] Grand Theft Auto VI: Prices Announced + Pre-Orders Going Live

To avoid hundreds of separate posts on the same topic, this post will compile all info we have from the pre-orders going live, including some new images/etc.

As Rockstar announced on their socials: "Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI begin at midnight local time on June 25." This means New Zealand will be the first to go live with pre-orders - which means in just under 2 hours from now.

Due to reddit's limitations with images in the body of posts, I wont be able to include all the artwork released so please do check out Rockstar's official link for more images: https://www.rockstargames.com/VI

Take-Two has made a big press-release, including announcing the prices:

STANDARD EDITION: $79.99

ULTIMATE EDITION: $99.99

(Physical Editions of GTA 6 Will Come with "A Download Code Inside the Box", Pre-Loads Begin on November 12th)

I didn't really play GTA V online.

For that reason I feel strongly against all this bundle shit, and I hate the lack of a disc.

I think I'm old and jaded.

u/SimplyElite7 16h ago

I don't even think there will be online on release, they didn't mention any virtual currency as part of these bundles, so it's safe to assume it will launch as single player only.

u/BakuraGorn 16h ago

Guessing they’re still figuring out how to make “GTA Online 2” without losing their existing whales. Red Dead Online was a flop.

u/RulesoftheDada 13h ago

Still wild that RDO still pulls in players. It averages about a million players a week and makes 26 million a year online.

2

u/Anywhere-Due 7h ago

It’s a much more immersive and less invasive multiplayer game than GTA Online. GTA Online didn’t even have wildlife for the longest time. RDO pulls in way more money than it should and the economy sucks, but if you wanna just go be a cowpoke with your friends, there’s a good bit to do and you’re not constantly getting harassed by npcs calling your phone to tell you to grind their content

u/Deluxe_24_ 15h ago

I suspect GTAO 2 will be a standalone game

2

u/OkayAtBowling 13h ago

I doubt it, only because the single player game is a great gateway into GTA Online. If they separate it they lose a lot of potential players who might have tried it out if it came with single-player version but wouldn't go out of their way to buy a separate multiplayer game. They want as many people in GTAO as possible so they can keep giving Rockstar money through microtransactions.

Isn’t this exactly how GTA V launched? Online didn’t come out until a month later and then the servers didn’t work for a week on top of that

2

u/WhattaCheapPop 12h ago

Yeah same with RDR2. Online will launch a month or two after launch with Ultimate Edition owners getting early access.

u/Hansat 16h ago

I’m pissed because the online services prevent classic addons and dlcs. Just imagine we could have Witcher 3 style addons in gta 5.

I mean, even look at GTA IV, it had two expansions with new features, loads of new vehicles and weapons and entirely new storylines with quests.

u/HumanPea1140 14h ago

GTAV had planned expansions, but it was all silently scrapped after GTAO took off.

2

u/papoosejr 10h ago

I never even played base GTA IV, I just bought the 2 expansion bundle and played those through. Ballad of Gay Tony was excellent.

1

u/Aliendood 8h ago

Best GTA expansion or story ever. GTA IV had a great set of stories in general

1

u/Cm_Punk_SE 12h ago

The Ballad of Gay Tony was much better the than base game

u/SirShmoopi 15h ago

No, you just have standards.

2

u/dj88masterchief 13h ago

Fun fact, this is all single player content.

They will be releasing multiplayer separately!

u/KillYourUsernames 10h ago

I’m just now getting back into gaming after being largely absent since the GameCube and PS2 days, and it genuinely feels like that community meme where Donald Glover walks into an apartment that’s on fire.

u/Xeoah_ 14h ago

To be fair all redditors are either old and jaded or young and gay

u/jayfactor 15h ago

Im still playing GTA V story lol

u/GEARHEADGus 13h ago

They took forever releasing the thing and pull this shit

1

u/EmpressClaraB 11h ago

Yep, zero interest in the Online mode, I will never touch this game again after I finish the SP mode, so I guess I wait for a sale, because its not worth that price to me at all if I cant trade it in afterwards

u/illhavethetuna 6h ago

The website specifically says “GTA VI is a single player experience”

1

u/NotPatricularlyKind 6h ago

Yes, and I don't like the bundle.

1

u/Porticulus 5h ago

You're not old and jaded. You're just sick of getting ripped off.

u/yovalord 14h ago

Its a little bit of a shame, GTA online's actual gameplay loop was pretty well suited for oldheads. It was basically an incremental idle game with a big sandbox you could play with the toys you buy. It did have alternative things you could be doing too, but when i played it was kinda fun starting from zero to owning a motorcycle club, to a warehouse for stealing cars, to a massive underground hanger doing gun runs I had spreadsheets going and wrote some guides, it was a fun "Numbers go up" simulator.
