It’s time to decide which version of GTA 6 to buy. This game is one of the most anticipated entertainment releases in history. Fortunately, GTA 6 has only two versions, making the choice relatively straightforward.
Here’s a brief overview of what we currently know about the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition. It is the premium version of this massive open-world game. If you’re still hesitating about whether to spend extra money, this information might help you make your decision.
If you’re wondering whether the Ultimate Edition is worth the extra cost, take a look at what it includes first.
Ultimate Edition
Pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition grants you the Retro Vice City Pack and one month of free GTA+.
Vehicles
A ’95 Grotti Cheetah sports car with exclusive livery.
A Dinka Endura motorcycle and a Crest kayak in Jason’s safehouse.
A Ganado lowrider pickup truck with exclusive modifications.
A Shitzu Squalo speedboat with an exclusive weapon cache.
There’s also a ’67 Vapid Dominator Buggy associated with the Mud Club.
Weapons
A Hawk & Little Morgan revolver with exclusive engravings and accessories.
Customized carry weapons for Jason and Lucia.
Cosmetic Content
The Vice City Style Pack includes exclusive tattoos, clothing, hairstyles, and more. The Goodtime Gear Pack provides exclusive outfits related to the GTA TV show.
The Ultimate Edition also unlocks stores offering exclusive content.
Rideout Customs Mod Shop offers exclusive interiors, rims, and styles.
Sara’s Unisex Salon offers exclusive hairstyles, beard styles, makeup, and manicures.
Stock 305 Clothing Store offers exclusive streetwear.
Electric Fang Tattoo Parlor offers signature tattoos designed by real-life artists.
One-Eyed Willie’s Mod Shop specializes in modifying off-road vehicles.
Content related to the Mud Club also includes a special “Paradise Garage.” The garage features weapon lockers and secure spots to stash stolen goods.
Missions
The Ultimate Edition includes the PTT Youngin$ Illegal Good Store raid mission, featuring “special items and contraband.”
Additionally, there is a classic car collection side quest where players must find and restore unfinished vehicles.
Looking at it this way, there is indeed a substantial amount of additional content.
In terms of price, the Ultimate Edition is only $20 more than the Standard Edition. The Ultimate Edition is priced at $99.99, while the Standard Edition is $79.99. If you pre-order and choose the Ultimate Edition, you’ll immediately receive all the content included in this top-tier version, including access to related stores, exclusive clothing, and vehicles.
Back in August, it was reported that up to 89% of pre-orders were for the Ultimate Edition. It seems most GTA fans don’t want to miss out on this extra content. Whether you should buy it too is entirely up to you.
So, is it worth spending an extra $20?
This game has been in development for over a decade. It is arguably one of the most anticipated games ever made. If the gaming industry continues on its current trajectory, we may never see another title with this scale and scope again. It could also become a generation-defining game that players remember for years to come.
Of course, you can also look at it from another angle. Rockstar Games has placed some highly appealing exclusive content behind a paywall, giving players who are willing and able to pay an extra $20 more to enjoy. However, in my opinion, this remains one of the best digital content packs I’ve seen that requires only a small additional payment.
