GTA 6 Pre-Orders Open This June: Rockstar Unveils Cover Art
The wait to secure the most anticipated video game of the decade is almost over. Rockstar Games has announced that pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) will go live on June 25, signalling the start of the final countdown to the game’s eventual release.
Eager players will be able to lock in their purchases through digital storefronts as well as physical high street retailers. To mark the occasion, the studio also lifted the curtain on the official GTA 6 cover art, which will be featured across both physical editions and digital libraries. Curiously, the developers have decided to keep the retail price under wraps for the time being.
This pre-order announcement is just the tip of the iceberg. Earlier this year, the head of Take-Two Interactive teased that a colossal marketing campaign for the project would begin in late June. Opening up digital and physical reservations serves as the primary catalyst for this promotional blitz.
Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will officially begin on June 25 on digital storefronts and at other select retailers.
