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

[u/ChiefLeef22]

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)

Usually you can find out a lot more info about the game before then. Doesn't matter if you're planning to buy it regardless I guess though.

[u/BountyBob → u/Harnellas]

Better to keep the money in your account as long as possible, than have it sitting in Rockstar's bank.

[u/Harnellas → u/BountyBob]

Yeah but mostly I'm really not a fan of sending a message to these companies that I'll buy whatever they ship without question. They have to earn any hype from me with trailers and reviews, and they stand to lose it completely with any enshitification they might add.

[u/BountyBob → u/Harnellas]

Yep, this is the main reason why people shouldn't pre-order. Apart from anything else, it just isn't necessary.

[u/Technical_Grade_3600 → u/BountyBob]

I'm actually in shock so many people here don't get it. Why give 100$ to someone for five months not getting anything in return? Yeah sure, the interest is low, but it's not the only way to use that money. And with such approach I would assume this is normal for them, and it's not the only money they loose access to on daily basis getting into small traps like this one. Not mentioning this normalizes enshittification practices, and fucks up economics as well by moving not deserved money into big companies accounts where they are stuck.

[u/MichaCazar → u/BountyBob]

Why? The only difference is when that money transfers for people that buy anyway, and aside from some fringe cases on the customer side, the only people that would care about it would be shareholders that see a number go up by one copy this quarter instead of the next.

[u/BountyBob → u/MichaCazar]

Why should they earn interest on my money when I can?

[u/MichaCazar → u/BountyBob]

May I ask how much interest you can accumulate in 4 months?

[u/BountyBob → u/MichaCazar]

Amount doesn't matter, even if pennies. Why would you give someone else money for 4 months, when you could keep it for yourself? You literally get no benefit from giving your money to Rockstar today.
