GTA 6 Release Date: Is a Price Leak Hinting at a Launch Window?
The anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) is reaching fever pitch. While Rockstar Games remains tight-lipped about the official GTA 6 release date and pricing, a recent listing from an online retailer has sparked excitement – and perhaps a little wallet-worry – among fans. We’re roughly nine months away from potentially stepping back into the world of Grand Theft Auto, but the big questions remain: when can we preorder, and how much will it cost?
Price Leak: What’s the Story?
As spotted by a keen-eyed user on the GTA VI Reddit page, Loaded (formerly CDKeys), an online digital key retailer, listed the Xbox Series X/S version of GTA 6 for £89.99. Interestingly, a PC version also appeared on the site, priced at £60.99, and supposedly activatable through the Rockstar Games Launcher. This is notable as Rockstar hasn’t officially confirmed a PC release yet.
Currently, these listings are marked as “Coming Soon,” allowing users to set reminders for when preorders become available. It’s important to note these are for digital versions only, as Loaded specializes in digital key sales.
Placeholder or Prediction?
While the leak has generated buzz, it’s highly likely the price is a placeholder. Rockstar Games has yet to announce the final price of GTA 6. Loaded is likely using these listings to gauge interest and build anticipation for preorder drops. Rumors and leaks have suggested a potential price tag of up to £100 for the standard edition, a figure that might seem steep to some.
It’s a common practice for retailers to upload preliminary listings to assess demand. Expect to see similar prices appearing on larger platforms like Amazon and GameStop once Rockstar makes an official announcement.
What About Special Editions?
Given industry trends, it’s highly probable that Rockstar will release special or ultimate editions of GTA 6 alongside the standard version. These editions typically include additional digital content, potentially justifying a higher price point. The question is, how much extra will these premium editions cost?
