Confirmed: The full GTA V package is $10 on PS5 (with PS Plus) and $30 on Xbox
Rockstar is offering significant launch window discounts for the new-gen console versions of Grand Theft Auto V, with PlayStation receiving the biggest price cut.
Although Rockstar hasn’t officially communicated new-gen pricing details ahead of the game’s release on March 15, pre-orders are available from today, and the single-player Story Mode has been discounted by 75% on PS5, and 50% on Xbox Series X.
The PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V is currently listed for pre-order for just £8.75 / $9.99 on the PlayStation Store.
Meanwhile, due to a previously announced promotion, GTA Online is available for PlayStation Plus subscribers to claim for free on PlayStation 5 for the next three months.
However, on Xbox Series X/S the Story Mode is £17.49 / $19.99, while GTA Online is £8.99 / $9.99.
This means to buy both modes, PlayStation 5 owners will only have to spend £8.75 / $9.99, whereas Xbox Series X/S owners will have to spend more than double at £26.48 / $29.98.
It also appears that Xbox players may not be able to play Story Mode unless they have access to GTA Online too.
The description for the Xbox Series X version of the Story Mode reads: “Requires access to Grand Theft Auto Online for Xbox Series X|S.”
To summarise:
Rockstar provided new details about the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of GTA V last week including three graphics modes for players to choose from.
They include Fidelity Mode for the highest visual quality, a Performance Mode designed to offer the most responsive gameplay experience, and a Performance RT mode billed as a hybrid of the first two modes.
The studio also confirmed in February that Grand Theft Auto 6 is currently in development.
