GTA VI Will Cost $80 and Won't Have a Real Disc — The Disc Is Dead
The Verge·Thursday, 25 June 2026
Rockstar Games has confirmed Grand Theft Auto VI will launch on November 19th at $79.99, making it more expensive than most big-budget games. Physical copies will be sold in boxes, but there's no disc inside — just a download code. This makes GTA VI one of the clearest signals yet that the games industry is walking away from physical media.
Why It Matters
GTA is one of the biggest entertainment franchises on the planet, and this pricing and format decision will be felt by millions of gamers. It also sets a precedent other publishers are likely to follow.
