Summary

'Grand Theft Auto VI; launches November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with pre-orders now live across digital and physical retailers

The Ultimate Edition includes over a dozen exclusive content drops spanning vehicles, weapon variants, clothing, tattoos, and locations unlocked progressively across Jason and Lucia's story

All digital pre-orders placed before November 20 receive the Vintage Vice City Pack, while PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store pre-orders also unlock one free month of GTA+

With Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders officially live ahead of its November 19 release, Rockstar Games has detailed the full pre-order structure across three tiers of content: the Standard Edition with the Vintage Vice City Pack pre-order bonus, the Ultimate Edition with its full slate of exclusive in-game content, and a digital-exclusive free month of GTA+ available to anyone who pre-orders on the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store.

The Vintage Vice City Pack: What Every Pre-Order Gets

The Vintage Vice City Pack is the baseline pre-order bonus, included with all digital purchases of GTA VI made before November 20, and with physical pre-orders while supplies last. It centers on the ‘55 Vapid Stanier, a two-tone sedan available to cruise Shore Drive, stored at the Shore Court Garage near Ocean Beach. Like all personal garages in Leonida, it includes a weapon locker and a secure deposit point for stolen goods, with a local Fence accepting most items at a discounted rate.

The pack also includes two exclusive outfits and hairstyles for both protagonists. Jason gets a linen suit in vintage pastel with a period-appropriate haircut, while Lucia gets a red sequin mini dress with curls. An exclusive weapon pattern, a tropical print referencing Tommy Vercetti’s iconic palm tree button-up from the original Vice City, rounds out the pack and can be applied to most in-game guns.

One note on physical copies: GTA VI physical editions will not include a disc. The box will instead contain a code for the digital download of the game.

The Ultimate Edition: Everything Unlocked Across the Story

The Ultimate Edition builds significantly on the base game, adding vehicles, weapons, locations, clothing, and tattoos that unlock progressively behind each chapter of Jason and Lucia’s story. Here is everything included.

On the vehicle side, the Ultimate Edition delivers the ‘67 Vapid Dominator Buggy, stored at a Paradise Garage in Watson Bay complete with a weapon locker and stash box; the ‘95 Grotti Cheetah, a retro-futuristic sports car available in the later stages of the story; an Army fatigue-tinged Dinka Enduro motorcycle and Crest Kayak at Jason’s Safehouse; and exclusive mods for Jason’s Vapid Ganado pickup including a cab spoiler, rear aerials, and special livery. A Classic Car Collection commission from in-game character Wyman tasks players with tracking down and restoring abandoned vehicles, four of which are exclusive to the Ultimate Edition.

Two exclusive vehicle mod shops open with the Ultimate Edition. Rideout Customs in Vice City focuses on detailed interiors, custom rims, and donk styling. One-Eyed Willie’s in Lake Leonida specializes in off-road builds and hand-painted custom work. The Shitzu Squalo, a gradient pink and blue boat docked at Washington Beach, also comes with the edition and includes an explosives-laden weapons crate.

The weapon content includes his-and-hers versions of the Hawk & Little Morgan Revolver, sourced from the Vercetti Estate and found at Ammu-Nation stores as the story progresses. Both feature palm-tree-etched grips, engraved detailing, a high-performance scope, and personalized finishes. Personalized sidearms with detailed engravings are also included for both Jason’s Girardi ES9 pistol and Lucia’s Klose K17 pistol.

For clothing and customization, the Ultimate Edition opens Stock 305 in Stockyard, described as an elevated streetwear destination, exclusively for Ultimate Edition owners. Exclusive outfits, tattoos, and accessories are available for both Jason and Lucia through the Vice City Styles content, alongside a Goodtime Gear capsule collection inspired by Macca the Gator from the in-game TV show. Sara’s Unisex Salon adds signature hairstyles, facial hair for Jason, and makeup and nails for Lucia. Electric Fang Tattoo in Stockyard contributes over 50 exclusive tattoos for both characters, all designed by artist collective FAILE.

A final piece of Ultimate Edition content involves the PTT Youngin$, an in-game gang running an illegal goods store in Southside Vice City. Players can raid the location to obtain special items and distinct contraband.

The Ultimate Edition Upgrade will also be available separately at any time for Standard Edition owners who want to add the full content set after launch.
