GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch

Rockstar Games has finally announced the price of GTA 6, while confirming it features a “single-player experience” at launch.

Rockstar said GTA 6 costs $79.99 across PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, confirming a $10 jump from the standard $70 we’ve seen this generation. The Ultimate Edition, meanwhile, is $20 more, priced $99.99.

There’s no word yet on any new version of GTA Online, which suggests the existing experience will continue to operate as GTA 6 launches this November.

The price of GTA 6 had been one of the biggest talking points in the video game industry, with some analysts suggesting Rockstar could go as high as $100 for the base game. It hasn't gone quite that far, but by setting a $79.99 price, it may open the floodgates for all new triple-A games to follow suit. Only Nintendo has sold a new game for $80 so far (Switch 2 launch title Mario Kart World), with Microsoft backtracking on its own plans to do the same last year.

Details

Preorders for GTA 6 launch at midnight local time on June 25, with the Ultimate Edition and preorder bonuses already detailed. GTA 6 physical copies do not include a disc, Rockstar has confirmed. They're just a code in a box.

Rockstar is finally pulling back the curtain on GTA 6 as it nears launch. Alongside the Ultimate Edition and preorder bonus announcement is a significant GTA 6 screenshot release, showing up more of the game. We also have official GTA 6 cover art, and a fresh look at Vice City.

GTA 6 launches on November 19, 2026.
