No, GTA 6 pre-orders are not currently available. This is largely due to the game releasing in 2025, so there’s still a lengthy wait before players can delve into Vice City. The recent GTA 6 pre-order leaks have also been debunked by Rockstar Universe.

However, it’s important to note that GTA 5 was originally available for pre-order starting on November 5, 2012 – the game was then delayed and released on September 17, 2013. 

So, Rockstar Games have been known to enable players to pre-order GTA months in advance. Whether GTA 6 pre-orders will follow a similar pattern remains to be seen, but for now, that’s everything we know about purchasing a copy of the game. 

Will there be a GTA 6 Special Edition & Collector’s Edition?

Rockstar has yet to reveal whether there will be a GTA 6 Special Edition, but it’s incredibly likely given that GTA 5 featured both a Special Edition and a Collector’s Edition. As an example, the GTA 5 Special Edition came with the following features: 

  • Collectible steelbook with exclusive artwork
  • Blueprint map
  • Special Ability Boost
  • Stunt Plane Trials
  • Bonus outfits, tattoos, cosmetics
  • Additional weapons 

Because of this, we expect that GTA 6 will also receive its own Special Edition and Collector’s Edition. As always, we’ll update this section once Rockstar releases more details. 

So, there you have it, that’s everything you need to know about GTA 6 pre-orders. In the meantime, why not check out our GTA 6 hub for all the latest news and updates?
