GTA 6 editions, official ones, are two: Standard at $79.99 USD and Ultimate at $99.99 USD. Deluxe and Premium are not official SKUs. Rockstar has not sold a Collector’s Edition. If a comparison chart adds those extra rows, the chart is inventing products. Check Rockstar support on platforms, editions, and versions and the buy page before you pay a third price.

The two official editions
Standard is the full game on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. You can buy it digital or as a physical code-in-box. There is no disc. The box exists so retail can sell a Standard product and so the code can start downloading on November 12, 2026 with preload.
Ultimate is $99.99 USD and digital only. The extra $20 is digital extras: vehicles, weapons, apparel, and shops in Rockstar’s edition copy. It is not a second campaign, not an early unlock, and not a steelbook. Ultimate vs Standard is the buyer’s split. How much GTA 6 costs is the dollar page.
Both editions launch the same day. Pre-orders opened June 25, 2026. Buy before November 20, 2026 and you get the Vintage Vice City Pack. Digital copies also include one month of GTA+. Those extras are a time window, not a third edition. Details sit on pre-order bonuses.
Deluxe and Premium are not Rockstar SKUs
This is the sentence people skip. There is no official Deluxe. There is no official Premium. GTA V trained shoppers to expect a middle tier. VI did not ship one. Blog tables that price “Deluxe $89.99” or “Premium with a season pass” are not citing Rockstar.
A retailer can still slap “Deluxe bundle” on a headset plus a Standard code. That is a shop bundle. It is not an edition Rockstar named. Same rule for steelbooks and statues: Collector’s Edition does not exist as an official SKU.
If a key shop sells “GTA 6 Premium PC,” walk away. PC is unannounced. Premium is not a SKU. That listing is noise.
Edition comparison
| Edition | Official? | USD price | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Yes | $79.99 | Digital or physical code-in-box |
| Ultimate | Yes | $99.99 | Digital only |
| Deluxe | No | None | Not a Rockstar SKU |
| Premium | No | None | Not a Rockstar SKU |
| Collector’s Edition | No | None | Not a Rockstar SKU |
Platforms for the two real editions are PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are not listed. File size is unannounced. 60 FPS is not confirmed. None of those tech gaps is solved by picking Ultimate.
What extras actually change
Ultimate extras do not move launch off November 19, 2026. They do not add Leonida regions. They do not date a GTA Online VI mode. Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos are in the story either way.
The Vintage Vice City Pack (buy before November 20, 2026) can sit on Standard or Ultimate. Official store copy has pointed to vintage cosmetics, a 55 Vapid Stanier, an Ocean Beach garage, retro outfits, and a Tommy Vercetti shirt-inspired weapon pattern. We are not adding cash or extra cars to that list.
GTA 6 editions, compared honestly, are a two-row store. Standard or Ultimate. Deluxe and Premium are not on the shelf.

GTA 6 Editions Compared: Standard, Deluxe, Premium and Ultimate is one of the pages people open while waiting for November 19, 2026. WhenGTA6 does not upgrade guesses into Rockstar quotes. If a sentence here sounds definitive, check the fact label at the top and the source list at the bottom.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026. Digital preload begins November 12, 2026. The base game price published by Take-Two is $79.99 USD. PC, file size, performance modes, and online plans remain separate questions - each gets its own page rather than being smuggled into this one.
More context
Rockstar’s official hub remains Grand Theft Auto VI. WhenGTA6 mirrors calendar facts from that site and from Take-Two investor materials. Trailer shots, Netflix Extended Look frames, and fan spreadsheets are useful context, not automatic confirmation.

If Rockstar updates the official record, this page should change. The release date guide, platforms guide, and status board are the three places we reconcile conflicting chatter.
