Grand Theft Auto 6's physical editions will adopt a digital-first approach, providing buyers with a code for a digital download rather than a game disc. This move by Rockstar Games comes as the highly anticipated title prepares for its launch on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S consoles.
Pre-orders for the game are scheduled to commence on June 25 at midnight local time. Players opting for digital pre-orders will gain the advantage of pre-loading the game starting November 12, ensuring immediate access upon release. Physical copies will also be available from November 12 to facilitate pre-loading.
The decision to forgo discs in physical copies has generated a mixed reaction. While some critics acknowledge the potential benefits of reducing resale and preventing leaks, physical collectors express concern over the lack of a traditional disc. Analysts suggest Rockstar's strategy aims to cater to a broad audience while offering dedicated fans an enhanced experience.
