What editions of GTA 6 are there?
| Edition | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Base edition | $80 | GTA 6 |
| Ultimate Edition | $100 | GTA 6 plus exclusive in-game items |
| The Vice City Collection | Not listed | A collector's box (contents not yet detailed) |
The prices come from GameSpot's report on upgrading between editions. Rockstar's own GTA VI page names the Ultimate Edition and the collector's box but doesn't list prices on the page itself, so check your console's store for the price in your currency.
What's in the Ultimate Edition?
Rockstar describes it as "an exclusive collection of items threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia's story". In plain terms, it adds extra in-game items on top of the base game. Rockstar hasn't itemised them on its page yet, so we won't guess at what they are. We'll list them once they're announced.
What is the Vintage Vice City Pack?
It is the pre-order bonus. Rockstar says it brings "unique benefits that flash back to when the neon burned brightest", a nod to the older Vice City. Like the Ultimate Edition, the individual items aren't listed yet. Pre-ordering any edition should get it, but check the store listing for your platform before you buy.
What is The Vice City Collection?
A physical collector's box that Rockstar lists alongside the editions. Its page doesn't describe the contents, so treat it as a collector's item rather than a way to get more in the game. Note that boxed PS5 copies of the game contain a download code rather than a disc, according to Push Square.
Can you upgrade from the $80 edition later?
Yes. GameSpot reports that you can buy the $80 edition and move up to the $100 version later, and that it's simple to do. Read our upgrade story for what has been reported. We haven't seen a separate price for the upgrade itself, so check your store before paying.
Which edition should you buy?
- Most players: start with the $80 edition. You keep the option to upgrade once you know you're hooked.
- You want every extra on day one: the Ultimate Edition saves a second purchase.
- Collectors: the Vice City Collection is the physical piece, but its contents haven't been detailed yet.
Whatever you pick, the release date and preload times are the same: see our release date and preload guide. For what's actually in the game, the GTA 6 hub and vehicles database track what Rockstar has shown.
