GTA VI: General Discussion

Physical editions come with a code in a box lol That's a no from me.

Just a way to cut out the reselling and that way being able to keep the cost of the game at $80 for years. I shouldn't have expected anything less from Rockstar I stupidly did.

Still hyped for the game but I can't justify £80 or whatever it is in Sterling for a digital copy only.

Calling a box with just a code a "physical edition" is quite a stretch... It's a voucher for the digital edition, that's all.

Bought GTAV as a digital edition. Never once did it occur to me that I might trade this game in…

I did when I bought it on PS3, the way i partly fund my gaming is by selling old games once im done with them.

I understand this isn't the biggest deal for a lot of people but im old and remember a time where companies didnt milk customer to death and im not willing to move with the times lol

Looking at the stores where it's available now, the prices seem to be:

Standard - £59.99
Ultimate - £74.99
Ultimate upgrade - £15

Which is a surprise.

Was totally expecting to pay £70 - but I never like GTA online, and I didn’t do any of the personalisation so I might just save myself £15 and go with the standard edition

Help me out here:

GTA+ is a membership service for GTA Online. GTAVI is "a single player experience" (sic).

It's not referenced anywhere immediately obvious beyond this line on the landing page... so what's this for?

I believe it’s their way of “thanking” players pre-ordering by giving them a month of GTA+ for free since the next heist DLC is around the corner & folks will be on GTAnline til November.


However, unless it has an expiration date (though I can’t imagine why), I would save it til VI’s online goes live. It’s very obvious Rockstar will be shifting some of the focus off Shark Cards towards GTA+ this next go around. Might as well get a month free bc they will most likely be putting some heavy “perks” behind GTA+ the first few months of VInline.
