GTA 6 UK Price and Pre-Orders: What's Confirmed

If you’re in the UK and wondering what GTA 6 costs and how to pre-order, here’s the honest state of play: pre-orders opened at midnight BST on Thursday, June 25, and the pound prices went up with them — £69.99 for the Standard Edition and £89.99 for the Ultimate, alongside the US prices Rockstar had already confirmed ($79.99 Standard, $99.99 Ultimate). Here’s everything that’s confirmed, ahead of the November 19 release.
When did GTA 6 pre-orders start in the UK?
Rockstar opened pre-orders at midnight local time on Thursday, June 25, 2026 — so midnight BST for UK players. They have stayed live ever since, on the PlayStation Store, the Xbox Store and the major UK retailers, so there is no longer a window to catch.
You can pre-order straight from the PlayStation Store or Xbox Store rather than wishlisting it. The game itself releases on November 19, 2026, for PS5 (including PS5 Pro) and Xbox Series X|S.
How much does GTA 6 cost in the UK?
The pound prices are published: £69.99 for the Standard Edition and £89.99 for the Ultimate Edition, listed identically on the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Store. The US figures Rockstar announced are $79.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 for the Ultimate Edition.
Here’s how the two currencies line up:
| Edition | US (confirmed) | UK (confirmed) |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $79.99 | £69.99 |
| Ultimate | $99.99 | £89.99 |
Two expectations had been competing before the reveal. PlayStation and Xbox often price games “like-for-like,” matching the dollar number with the same pound number regardless of exchange rate — which would have put the Standard Edition at £79.99. Others expected a slightly lower £69.99 to £74.99, in line with the typical AAA price in the UK. The lower expectation is the one that landed, with the Ultimate Edition sitting exactly £20 above it.
Where can you pre-order GTA 6 in the UK?
Pre-orders are available through the official digital storefronts — the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store and Rockstar Store — plus major retailers including Amazon UK, GAME, Currys, Argos, Smyths and John Lewis. The official storefronts tend to offer the steadiest pricing.
One important caution: be wary of third-party “cheap key” reseller sites undercutting the official £69.99. Those listings are not Rockstar pricing, and grey-market key sellers carry real risks. Stick to official stores and well-known retailers, and don’t trust any “discounted” GTA 6 pre-order that looks too good to be true.
What do you get for pre-ordering GTA 6?
Every pre-order, of either edition, includes the Vintage Vice City Pack — a set of 1980s-themed in-game items — as long as you pre-order (or buy) before November 20. Digital pre-orders also get a free month of GTA+, Rockstar’s subscription service. The Ultimate Edition adds an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel and story-threaded content that unlocks gradually through the campaign.
One more heads-up for UK buyers eyeing a physical copy: there’s no disc at launch. The box contains a download code, so even a boxed copy means downloading the game.
The bottom line
For UK players the picture is now settled: pre-orders opened at midnight BST on June 25 and the official pound prices landed with them — £69.99 for the Standard Edition and £89.99 for the Ultimate, the same on PlayStation and Xbox. Stick to official stores, and remember the Vintage Vice City Pack is free with any pre-order before November 20. There’s no rush to commit — but if you want it locked in, now you know exactly what it costs.
