Rumor: Grand Theft Auto VI disc version to launch in December

Code in a box seemingly only planned for launch.

A disc version of Grand Theft Auto VI will launch in December, according to Polish video game website PPE source Graczdari.

As announced yesterday, the physical edition of Grand Theft Auto VI due out alongside the game’s launch on November 19 contains a code in a box—not a physical disc.

“The release with the code will be one shot, and then the option for the disc release will follow,” Graczdari said.

Graczdari has previously shared other accurate retail leaks, such as Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 for PlayStation 5, the multiplatform versions of Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut, and the Switch 2 release date for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. They were the first to report back in January that Rockstar Games was not planning a physical edition of Grand Theft Auto VI at launch in order to prevent leaks, which Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick denied.
