After months of anticipation, Rockstar Games has finally revealed not only the release date of GTA VI but also the price of the upcoming hit. The standard edition of the game will cost $80, while the Ultimate Edition will cost $100. Despite player concerns, the base version didn’t receive a $100 price tag, but many are now wondering whether GTA VI will trigger another price hike for all major games.
The full list of GTA VI Ultimate Edition bonuses is as follows:
- Grotti Cheetah 1995;
- Hawk and Little Morgan revolvers;
- Unique skins for the main characters’ pistols – the Girardi ES9 and Klose K17;
- Vice City Style set of unique character skins;
- Dinka Enduro motorcycle and Crest kayak;
- Vapid Ganado car modification set;
- Access to a body shop that installs body kits for the city donk;
- Access to Sarah’s beauty salon. Jason will have access to special shaving options, and Lucia will have access to a makeup artist and manicurist;
- Shitzu Squalo watercraft with a pink and blue gradient color scheme and a weapon crate filled with explosives.
- Access to the Stock 305 clothing store with unique street-style clothing;
- 1967 Vapid Dominator buggy.
- Access to the “Electric Fang” tattoo parlor with 50 unique tattoos.
- “One-Eyed Willie” workshop for off-road vehicle modifications and custom paint jobs.
- “Pleasant Emotions” clothing and accessory collection based on the local TV series about Alligator;
- a warehouse of prohibited goods from the Greenjackets gang;
- a special assignment to collect Wyman’s classic car collection.
For pre-ordering, the developers promise to reward all players with the “Welcome Back to Vice City” bundle, which includes a classic 1955 Vapid Stanier sedan with a garage near Ocean Beach, special clothing and hairstyles for Jason and Lucia, and a special weapon pattern.
GTA VI is already being called the biggest entertainment release in history. The game is projected to sell over 45 million copies within a short time of launch. After more than a decade of waiting and a missed console generation, most fans of the series are unlikely to resist the $10 price increase over other modern AAA releases.
