The premium way to buy Grand Theft Auto VI is the Ultimate Edition, priced at $100. Here's exactly what the extra $20 over the Standard Edition gets you.

What's in the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition

On top of the full base game, the Ultimate Edition adds an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons and apparel woven throughout Jason and Lucia's story — extra content you'll unlock as you play rather than a separate mode.

It also includes Personalized Variants for two signature sidearms: Jason's Girardi ES9 pistol and Lucia's Klose K17 pistol.

It also stacks with the pre-order bonus

Like every edition, pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition nets you the Vintage Vice City Pack — a 1955 Vapid Stanier sedan and garage in Ocean Beach, plus outfits, hairstyles and an iconic weapon pattern. So pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition gives you *both* bundles.

Is the Ultimate Edition worth it?

At $100 versus the $80 Standard, you're paying $20 for cosmetic and gear bonuses rather than extra story or map content. If you love customizing your character and vehicles from hour one, it's an easy upgrade. If you mainly care about the campaign and open world, the Standard Edition delivers the exact same game.

Either way, pre-orders open at midnight on June 25, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, ahead of the November 19, 2026 launch.
