What readers need to know
Short answer: as checked on 2026-10-13, the Rockstar Store page at https://store.rockstargames.com/game/buy-gta-vi lists Grand Theft Auto VI for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, prints Release Date November 19, 2026, and shows a Pre-Order Now price of $79.99. In the page data, that 79.99 USD figure is attached to the physical US/CA PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X code-in-box SKUs. The comparison table checks 16 named rows on the Ultimate Edition that stay unchecked on Standard. The page does not print an Ultimate Edition dollar amount, and it does not list a PC version or a Nintendo Switch 2 version.
Source label, confirmed (Rockstar Store page, fetched 2026-10-13): the rendered platform selector offers PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The page data builds the same edition comparison for a PlayStation 5 layout and an Xbox Series X layout. Game details name Rockstar Games as developer and publisher. The release-date line says November 19, 2026. That sentence does not move the date already tracked from Rockstar's VI page. It also does not add a PC release or a Nintendo Switch 2 version. Those questions stay at /blog/is-gta-6-coming-to-pc/ and /blog/gta-6-switch-2-nintendo-platform-watchlist/.
Source label, confirmed price with a narrow scope (same page): the visible Pre-Order Now control shows $79.99. The only SKUs in the page data with a 79.99 USD price are titled Grand Theft Auto VI PS5 (US/CA) and Grand Theft Auto VI XBX (US/CA), and both are marked physical. Digital Standard and Ultimate rows on this page link out to PlayStation Store or Xbox, and those link-out rows do not carry a dollar amount. A zero in that link-out price field is a missing store price, not a free copy. Shipping cost is presented at checkout. The shipping FAQ says additional duties and taxes may be imposed by local authorities outside the U.S. and UK. Older Take-Two wording is a different source and stays on /blog/gta-6-rockstar-store-standard-ultimate-checklist/ rather than being recopied here as a new figure.
Source label, confirmed comparison checks (same page, both platform layouts): the Standard column, titled Grand Theft Auto VI with the edition name Standard Edition, is checked for Digital Standard Edition, Vintage Vice City Pack Pre-Order Bonuses, ’55 Vapid Stanier Sedan and Garage, Outfits and Hairstyles, Exclusive Weapon Pattern, Digital Store Pre-Order Bonus, and Free Month of GTA+. The Ultimate Edition column is checked for those seven rows and for 16 more. A checkmark is a row on this table. It is not, by itself, a promise that every account, region, and purchase date receives every row.
Source label, confirmed Ultimate-only rows on that table: ’95 Grotti Cheetah, Hawk and Little Morgan Revolvers, Personalized Weapon Variants, Vice City Styles, Jason’s Safehouse Vehicles, Ganado Retro Build, Rideout Customs Mod Shop, Sara’s Unisex Salon, Shitzu Squalo, Stock 305 Clothing Store, ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy, Electric Fang Tattoo Parlor, One-Eyed Willie’s Mod Shop, Goodtime Gear, PTT Youngin$ Compound, and Classic Car Collection. The upgrade banner says purchased players can upgrade to the Ultimate Edition on PlayStation Store, or on Microsoft Store in the Xbox layout, at any time. The banner does not print a dollar amount. The Ultimate FAQ says the bonuses are threaded across Jason and Lucia’s story, with new items uncovered behind each chapter, and it points to rockstargames.com/VI for more. The Classic Car Collection name on this table is not a new activity description; that separate Rockstar wording stays at /blog/gta-6-classic-car-collection-ultimate-edition-explained/.
Source label, confirmed with a date limit (GTA+ FAQ on the same page): the free month is for players who pre-ordered Grand Theft Auto VI from PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store before November 20, 2026. PlayStation redemption must be done on PlayStation Store by March 31, 2027, on the same account used to pre-order. Xbox Series X|S redemption is on the Microsoft Store Offers & Credits page and must be done within 180 days after the purchase. The bonus name and the earlier Take-Two window are already tracked at /blog/gta-6-vintage-vice-city-pack-gta-plus-preorder-bonus-explained/. This store FAQ does not add a price for GTA+ after the free month.
Source label, confirmed physical format (same page): the code-in-box stripe says physical versions will only contain a download code inside the box to support pre-load on November 12, and a disc will not be included. It adds "while supplies last." The FAQ repeats that an internet connection and a platform account are required to download the game. Shipping will be available starting November 12, 2026. After launch, the FAQ estimates 1–7 days depending on the shipping selection, and it says some orders ship in more than one box. The code-in-box FAQ's region-lock note names PlayStation accounts for the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and a listed set of European countries. That note is printed on the Xbox layout as well. The page prints no separate Xbox region table. The standing physical-format article is /blog/gta-6-physical-box-download-code-explained/.
Source label, confirmed page facts that are not a rating or a file size: the supported-languages line lists English, French, Italian, German, Russian, Japanese, Polish, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish (Mexico), Spanish (Spain), and Portuguese (Brazil). The page also lists Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Mature Humor, Nudity, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, Use of Drugs and Alcohol, and In-Game Purchases. Those are descriptor lines on this store page. They are not an ESRB or PEGI rating letter, and they are not a download size. Rating questions stay at /blog/gta-6-esrb-mature-rating-explained/. The shipping FAQ lists Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. To cancel a Rockstar Store physical pre-order, the FAQ says to contact fulfillment partner Xsolla with the order number and the email used to order, then contact Rockstar Support for additional help. Refund wording beyond that pointer stays at /preorder-safety-centre/.
Unknown on this page: an Ultimate Edition dollar amount, a digital dollar amount on the link-out rows, a PC version, a Nintendo Switch 2 version, a disc, a file size, an age-rating letter, and any claim that a comparison checkmark applies to every region and every purchase date. No leaked assets, private checkout screens, or retailer placeholders are used to fill those gaps.
