Fake editions of GTA VI with "discs" have appeared - Chinese vendors noticed demand for full physical versions
Players will still be able to get GTA VI discs, but there's a catch.
Grand Theft Auto VI will have a physical edition, but there will be no disc in the box — instead, buyers will receive a key to download the digital version of the game. Not all players have accepted this decision by Rockstar Games / Take-Two and are calling for a full physical edition with the game on disc.
Entrepreneurs noticed this request and came up with a specific offer. Promotional banners for unofficial Grand Theft Auto VI editions went viral in the gaming community — Chinese vendors are offering collectors physical versions with a "disc".
Buyers are immediately warned that this is a fake — this "GTA VI disc" is simply a collectible item, not intended for gameplay.
The announcement of such a "physical edition" of Grand Theft Auto VI received mixed reviews. Some players are happy to get a "GTA VI disc" for their collection in some form, while for people like GMMXX50, such things devalue the essence of a "physical medium":
This is stupid. It loses all meaning. Physical media are needed to preserve games, not just for a box in hand. But if everyone is so stupid — well, okay [...].
Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles.
