Start with what you want

Our advice: first decide whether the base game is what you want. Then compare the current Ultimate contents and upgrade terms on your console’s storefront. Having an upgrade route means you do not have to settle every bonus preference from a headline alone.

Compare the complete checkout

Check the region, platform, included items and final price of the exact product. This guide is not a live price feed and does not assume a US price applies to every reader. A photograph of a collectible is not proof that it comes with a game entitlement.

Choosing a box?

Our code-in-box guide covers the format Rockstar describes. If a membership offer is included, read the GTA+ guide before claiming it.
