GTA 6 Standard vs Ultimate in the UK
If you are choosing an edition, start with the official UK prices, then decide whether the Ultimate extras and the boxed-code format matter to you.
UK prices
On the UK PlayStation Store on 10 November 2026:
- Standard Edition — £69.99
- Ultimate Edition — £89.99
Take-Two’s earlier US announcement used $79.99 and $99.99. Those are not the UK pound prices. Always check the store you are buying from.
What Ultimate adds
Ultimate includes the game plus an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel and other rewards threaded through Jason and Lucia’s story. You do not need Ultimate to play the main game.
Ultimate is digital only. Rockstar’s support material says there is no physical Ultimate Edition. If you buy a box, it is the Standard Edition. After you redeem the Standard code you can buy the Ultimate Edition Upgrade from the PlayStation or Microsoft store. On the UK Microsoft Store on 10 November 2026 the Ultimate Edition Upgrade was £20.00 (£69.99 + £20 = the £89.99 Ultimate price). PlayStation says upgrades from the boxed Standard code are sold only on the PlayStation Store; check the price there before you buy.
Physical copies: a code in a box, not a disc
The physical version contains a download code. A disc is not included. Retailers are expected to offer shipping and pickup from 12 November 2026 so you can redeem the code and pre-load. You still cannot play until 19 November. If the box arrives late, you cannot play from a code you do not have.
Pre-order extras (before 20 November 2026)
- Vintage Vice City Pack — Take-Two says all pre-orders and purchases before 20 November 2026 include it, digital or boxed. Rockstar has described a ’55 Vapid Stanier, outfits and hairstyles, and an exclusive weapon pattern.
- One month of GTA+ — for digital pre-orders/purchases before 20 November (not boxed copies). On PlayStation it must be claimed (by 31 March 2027 on the UK store wording). It auto-renews as a paid subscription unless you cancel before the next payment date. The offer is once per account. Existing GTA+ subscribers have the month added on.
If you do not want a paid GTA+ subscription later, cancel it in account settings in time.
