# GTA 6 Official Price Revealed: What Every Edition Actually Costs

> Status: Confirmed · GTA6 Daily

Rockstar finally put a number on it. GTA 6 is $79.99 Standard and $99.99 Ultimate, with regional pricing and exactly what each edition includes.

## Key takeaways
- GTA 6 Standard Edition is $79.99; Ultimate Edition is $99.99 (US).
- There are only two editions. No Special or Collector's tier exists.
- Standard is $10 above the $69.99 that has been the AAA norm since 2020.
- Ultimate's extra $20 buys premium vehicles, weapons, apparel and Ultimate-only in-game shops.
- Every pre-order before November 20 includes the Vintage Vice City Pack; digital adds a free GTA+ month.

For months the price of Grand Theft Auto VI was the great unknown, with estimates running anywhere from a tame $69.99 to a wild $150. Rockstar settled it the day before pre-orders. Here's the clean answer, plus what your money actually buys.

## The number

**GTA 6 Standard Edition costs $79.99. The Ultimate Edition costs $99.99.** Those are US prices, confirmed by Rockstar, and those are the only two editions on offer.

The $79.99 figure matters beyond GTA. Since 2020 the AAA flagship price has sat at $69.99, the line publishers nudged up from the old $59.99 standard. Rockstar just pushed it another $10. Given the scale of what they're shipping and the fact that GTA fans have waited 13 years, an $80 sticker was the safe bet, and it landed exactly where many analysts expected.

What's more notable is what *isn't* here. No $150 collector's set, no SteelBook tier, no season-pass bundle baked into the price. Two clean options. We dug into the long-running "is the $200 collector's edition worth it" debate in [our earlier price breakdown](https://www.gta6daily.net/news/gta-6-price-every-region-200-collectors-edition-worth-it); the short version is that the premium physical edition people kept pricing out simply never existed.

## What's in the Standard Edition ($79.99)

This is the game, and for most people it's the right pick:

- The full Grand Theft Auto VI single-player campaign set across Leonida and Vice City.
- Access to GTA Online when it goes live.
- A digital download, or a physical box that contains a download code rather than a disc.

Pre-order before November 20 and Standard also includes the **Vintage Vice City Pack** at no extra cost: the '55 Vapid Stanier, the Shore Court Garage near Ocean Beach, vintage outfits for Jason and Lucia, a weapon locker and a fence for selling stolen goods. Pre-order digitally and you also get one free month of GTA+.

## What the Ultimate Edition adds ($99.99)

The extra $20 is entirely about in-game content, most of it aimed at people who'll live in GTA Online. Ultimate stacks the following on top of everything in Standard:

- **Premium vehicles:** the '95 Grotti Cheetah, the Shitzu Squalo speedboat, and the '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy, plus motorcycle and kayak extras tied to Jason's safehouse.
- **Personalized weapons,** exclusive apparel and tattoos.
- **Ultimate-only shops** woven into the world: Rideout Customs, Sara's Unisex Salon, Stock 305 streetwear, and the Electric Fang tattoo parlor.
- **A second personal garage,** the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay, with its own weapon locker and stash.

None of this touches the story or the map. It's a head start and a wardrobe, not extra game. If you mainly care about the campaign, Standard gives you the whole thing. If GTA Online is going to eat your evenings for the next three years, the Ultimate content pays off over time. And if you're unsure, Rockstar lets you start on Standard and upgrade to Ultimate later through an add-on pack, so you're not locked in today.

## GTA 6 price by region

US pricing is confirmed; international stores are publishing their own numbers as pre-orders roll out. New Zealand's PlayStation Store, which went live first, listed Standard at NZ$139.95 and Ultimate at NZ$174.95. Here's the broad shape of what to expect elsewhere, with local tax typically included outside North America:

| Region | Standard | Ultimate |
|---|---|---|
| United States | $79.99 | $99.99 |
| United Kingdom | ~GBP 69.99 | ~GBP 84.99 |
| European Union | ~EUR 79.99 | ~EUR 99.99 |
| Australia | ~A$109.95 | ~A$139.95 |
| New Zealand | NZ$139.95 | NZ$174.95 |
| India | ~Rs 5,999 | ~Rs 6,999 |
| Canada | ~CA$89.99 | ~CA$119.99 |

Treat the non-US rows as close estimates until each regional store publishes its listing; we're swapping in confirmed figures on [our live pre-order tracker](https://www.gta6daily.net/news/gta-6-pre-orders-now-live-every-region-updated-live) as they land. Currency conversion never maps cleanly to game pricing, so the local number is what counts, not the exchange-rate math.

## So which should you buy?

Strip away the noise and it's a simple call. Buy **Standard at $79.99** if you want the game and a clean single-player run. Buy **Ultimate at $99.99** if you're a committed GTA Online player who wants the vehicles, shops and cosmetics from day one. Everyone who pre-orders before November 20 gets the Vintage Vice City Pack either way, so there's no bonus you're missing by choosing Standard.

## Why $80, in context

The jump from $69.99 to $79.99 reads like a small thing, but it's the kind of move the rest of the industry watches closely. When the biggest game of the decade sets its flagship price at $80, it gives every other publisher cover to follow. Rockstar is in a rare position to test that ceiling: this is the most anticipated entertainment release in years, and the company knows it. Analysts at the venture firm Konvoy projected GTA 6 could generate around $7.6 billion in its first two months alone. At that scale, the price wasn't really in doubt, only the exact figure.

It's also worth noting what Rockstar *didn't* do. They didn't gate the story behind a season pass, didn't split content across three confusingly named tiers, and didn't ship a $150 collector's set. Two editions, a clear $20 gap between them, and a free bonus pack for everyone who pre-orders. For a launch this big, that's a restrained structure.

## GTA+ and the free month

One detail buried in the pricing is the GTA+ membership. Digital pre-orders include one free month of it. GTA+ is Rockstar's recurring subscription for GTA Online, bundling monthly vehicles, bonus in-game currency and members-only perks. The free month is a genuine extra, but read the fine print: it auto-renews at the regular monthly rate once the trial ends, and on PlayStation it must be redeemed by March 31, 2027. If you don't intend to keep paying, set a reminder to cancel before the month is up.

## What about a PC price?

There isn't one, because there's no PC version yet. GTA 6 launches on console first, with a PC release widely expected later, mirroring how Rockstar handled GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2. Whenever the PC edition is announced, its pricing will be a separate conversation. For now, $79.99 and $99.99 are console numbers.

The thing worth repeating: the digital versions never sell out, so the price is the only real decision here. Take the night to think about whether you're an Ultimate player. The store will still be there tomorrow.
