- Physical (Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop): a retail box with a download code (no disc) — resellable, but you'll still download the game.

Do I need PlayStation Plus or Xbox Game Pass to play GTA 6?
No. GTA 6 is a single-player game at launch, so you do not need PlayStation Plus or Xbox Game Pass to play the story. A subscription would only matter for any future online features, which have not been detailed yet.
When can I pre-load GTA 6?
Pre-loading is expected to begin around November 12, 2026, roughly a week before the November 19, 2026 launch, so a digital pre-order is ready to play the moment it unlocks. The exact download size has not been officially confirmed.
Does pre-ordering GTA 6 require a deposit?
It depends on where you buy. Digital pre-orders on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store are charged in full upfront, while some retailers like Amazon do not charge until the game ships and others may take a small deposit — check the store's terms before ordering.
