US dollar prices from Take-Two (June 24, 2026). UK prices from PlayStation Store UK, checked November 11, 2026. Neither had changed as of November 11.
What do you get for pre-ordering?
Confirmed by Take-Two. Every pre-order or purchase made before November 20, 2026, digital or boxed, includes the Vintage Vice City Pack, a nod to GTA Vice City (2002):
- A 1955 Vapid Stanier sedan.
- A garage near Ocean Beach.
- Outfits and hairstyles for Jason and Lucia.
- A weapon skin.
Digital pre-orders also get one month of GTA+, the subscription currently tied to GTA Online in GTA V. On PlayStation Store it has to be claimed by March 31, 2027 and renews automatically unless you cancel. Deadlines vary slightly by store, so don’t leave it to the final hours of November 19.
Backlash over exclusive content
Players and press criticized missions and locations being locked to the Ultimate Edition. Rockstar responded that neither version has microtransactions at launch and that the game does not use generative AI.
How well are pre-orders selling?
Take-Two still hasn’t shared numbers. On its November 9, 2026 earnings call, CEO Strauss Zelnick said pre-orders were “far in excess of our initial expectations,” and the earnings release described them as reaching “unprecedented levels.” On the same call he confirmed development is complete and the November 19 date holds.
