As of June 25, 2026, Rockstar Games has not officially confirmed the price of Grand Theft Auto VI. A recent article claiming that the game will cost $79.99, with preorders going live on June 25, 2026, appears to be based on unverified information. The article also incorrectly referred to the game as 'Grand Theft Auto IV' in one instance.
Web searches for official Rockstar announcements, press releases, or credible gaming news outlets (such as IGN, Kotaku, or Polygon) show no record of a $79.99 price point for GTA 6. The only confirmed details about GTA 6 are that it was announced in December 2023 with a trailer, and is expected to release in 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, according to Take-Two Interactive's financial reports.
Claims about a 'Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition' for $99.99 are also unsubstantiated. No such edition has been officially listed or announced by Rockstar or any authorized retailer. Readers should rely on official sources for pricing and preorder information.
The original article's content, including the mention of 'premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action,' appears to be speculative. Until Rockstar or its parent company Take-Two Interactive makes an official statement, any specific pricing details should be treated as rumors.
