What GTA 6 Standard and Ultimate include

Grand Theft Auto VI is sold in two editions: Standard and Ultimate. There is no Deluxe SKU on Rockstar Support (18 August 2026), on rockstargames.com/VI/editions, or on the PlayStation and Xbox product pages. Ultimate is digital-only. Standard is digital or code-in-a-box (no disc).

If you searched “GTA 6 Deluxe Edition,” the honest answer is that it does not exist as a listed product. The $20 question is Ultimate, not a middle tier.

This page is about what is in each box and what does not exist. Storefront figures live on the editions and prices sheet. Why those figures differ by country is why GTA 6 prices differ by country. Pre-order dates and cancellation are on GTA 6 pre-order. Launch is 19 November 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

The two editions, side by side

Support’s wording on Standard: it “includes the game.” That is the whole Standard contents list. Ultimate is framed, in the 24 June Newswire and on the editions page, as “an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story,” with “new items uncovered behind each chapter.”

Rockstar has named the extras. It has not published a mechanical breakdown of what they do. Anyone ranking the Cheetah against the Stanier is inventing a test they have not run.

What Ultimate actually lists

Support (18 August 2026) and the editions drawer agree on the set, with small label variants:

• ’95 Grotti Cheetah
• Hawk & Little Morgan Revolvers
• Personalized Weapon Variants
• Vice City Styles (store drawer: “Vice City Style”)
• Jason’s Safehouse Vehicles
• Ganado Retro Build
• Rideout Customs Mod Shop
• Sara’s Unisex Salon
• Shitzu Squalo
• Stock 305 Clothing Store
• ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy (Support adds “and Garage”)
• Electric Fang Tattoo Parlor
• One-Eyed Willie’s Mod Shop
• Goodtime Gear
• PTT Youngin$ Compound (editions page: “PTT Youngin$ Illegal Goods Store”)
• Classic Car Collection

Take-Two’s 24 June materials, as published in the pre-order announcement coverage, add blurbs: his-and-hers Morgan revolvers “sourced from the Vercetti Estate”; personalized sidearms for “Jason’s Girardi ES9” and “Lucia’s Klose K17”; a Crest Kayak and Dinka Enduro under Jason’s Safehouse Vehicles; shops “only open for business with the Ultimate Edition”; Stock 305 as “Stockyard’s premier destination for elevated streetwear”; Electric Fang tattoos “designed by the artist collective FAILE”; a PTT Youngin$ compound raid in Southside Vice City; a classic-car commission from a fixer named Wyman.

Those blurbs are official marketing. They are still not a loot table. “Only open for business with the Ultimate Edition” is the clearest gating sentence Rockstar has printed. It means some named shops are edition-locked in the copy. It does not tell you how large that lock is in hours of play.

The Ultimate Edition Upgrade is sold separately. Support: Standard owners can buy it “at any time” from the PlayStation or Microsoft stores; physical buyers after the code is redeemed. US upgrade price in store listings tracked for this site: $20.

There is no Deluxe

GTA V had Collector / Special / Premium noise over a decade. VI’s public ladder is two rungs. Listings that invent a $89.99 Deluxe with a subset of shops are not Rockstar. If a third SKU appears, it will show up on Support and the editions page the way these two did.

Vintage Vice City Pack (not an edition)

This is a cutoff bonus, not a third SKU. Pre-orders and purchases before 20 November 2026, digital or physical, include:

• ’55 Vapid Stanier Sedan and Garage
• Outfits and Hairstyles
• Exclusive Weapon Pattern

Official blurb: a Shore Court garage “alongside Ocean Beach”; Jason’s pastel linen suit and Lucia’s red sequin mini dress; a tropical weapon pattern “inspired by Tommy Vercetti’s iconic palm tree button-up.” The product page’s line is “unique benefits that flash back to when the neon burned brightest.” It is not Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) in the box. Comparison of the two cities: Vice City 2002 vs 2026.

The GTA+ month, which is easy to misread

Digital pre-orders of either edition include one month of GTA+. It is redeemable against existing Grand Theft Auto V Online / the GTA+ Games Library. It is not a VI multiplayer mode.

Physical code-in-box copies, per Support, include the Vintage pack. They do not list the GTA+ month.

What happens to GTA Online after November: GTA Online after GTA 6.

Physical: a box, a code, no disc

Support, 18 August 2026: the physical Standard version contains a download code. “A disc will not be included in the box.” There is no physical Ultimate.
