Where to pre-order GTA 6
From June 25, you'll be able to pre-order in two ways:
- Digital — directly on the PlayStation Store (PS5) and the Xbox Store (Xbox Series X|S). Fastest, no shipping, pre-loads before launch.
- Physical — at select retailers for a disc copy (think Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart and the like). Best if you want a boxed collector's copy or plan to trade it in later.

Get your console ready before launch
GTA 6 will be a massive install. A little prep now means you're playing on launch night instead of waiting on downloads:
- Free up storage — or add an external/expansion SSD. A modern AAA install can run well over 100 GB.
- Check your controller & headset — launch night is the worst time to discover a dead controller.
- Pre-load the moment it's available (digital) so you're ready at midnight.

How to save money on GTA 6
- Buy discounted store credit. Picking up PlayStation/Xbox gift cards on sale effectively lowers the price of a digital pre-order.
- Compare physical retailers. Boxed copies sometimes come with pre-order bonuses or small discounts.
- Don't overpay for "premium" until you know what's in it. Wait for the official edition breakdown on June 25 — see our price & editions guide.
