GTA 6 pre order Xbox is open. Rockstar Games and Take-Two started orders on June 25, 2026 at midnight local time. You buy Standard for $79.99 USD or Ultimate for $99.99 USD on Xbox Series X|S. Ultimate is digital only. Game Pass is not announced. Playable launch is November 19, 2026. The full pre-order hub covers every store. This page stays on Xbox.

Where an Xbox pre-order lives
Use Microsoft Store / Xbox, the Rockstar buy page, or a retailer selling the official SKU. Start from rockstargames.com/VI if a storefront link moves.
Series X and Series S both sit in the Xbox Series X|S launch line. Hardware questions belong on the Xbox guide. Xbox One is not on the list. A last-gen pre-order listing is unofficial.
PS5 buyers should use the PS5 pre-order page instead of this one. Mixing storefronts is how people buy the wrong platform code.
Standard versus Ultimate on Xbox
Rockstar published two editions. There is no Deluxe, Premium, or Collector SKU.
| Xbox edition | Price | Format |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $79.99 USD | Digital, or physical code-in-box |
| Ultimate | $99.99 USD | Digital only |
| Ultimate Upgrade | Sold as a digital add-on after Standard is redeemed | PlayStation and Microsoft stores |
| Vintage Vice City Pack | Included if you buy before November 20, 2026 | Official pre-order window extra |
| Digital extra | One month of GTA+ | Digital copies |
| Xbox One edition | Does not exist | Not on the launch list |
Physical Standard is a download code in a box with no disc. Rockstar made that box available November 12, 2026 so preload can start. Ultimate has no boxed Xbox version. Standard owners can buy the Ultimate Edition Upgrade later through the Microsoft store after the base code is redeemed. That rule is in Rockstar support.
Official store copy for the Vintage Vice City Pack 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 items to that list.
Preload November 12 and launch November 19
Digital Xbox pre-orders begin preloading November 12, 2026 at local midnight. That is an install, not early access. The campaign unlocks November 19.
File size is unannounced. Leave storage free and ignore a random GB claim. 60 FPS is not confirmed on Series X or Series S. A pre-order receipt is not a performance mode.
Rockstar has not published a worldwide unlock table. Leonida Afterhours’s homepage clock uses midnight Eastern as a labeled assumption.
Game Pass is not a substitute for a pre-order
Game Pass has no day-one listing from Xbox or Take-Two. The published commercial sentence is a paid $79.99 USD Standard price. Treat “it will be on Game Pass” posts as rumor until a first-party store tile says so.
PC and Steam are not announced. An Xbox pre-order does not convert into a PC key later unless Rockstar writes that program.
Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos are the leads. Buying Xbox does not change the cast. Keep the receipt, match the edition name, and treat November 12 as download week. Playable day stays November 19, 2026.
