If you've been holding off on buying GTA 6 until launch day, there's a small reason to move a little sooner, as the free Vintage Vice City Pack and a month of GTA+ only come with purchases made before November 19 is out. Rockstar's own support page says digital pre-orders and purchases of either edition made prior to November 20, 2026 get the bonuses, while the Xbox Store listing, quoted on Xbox Wire on November 13, puts it as "prior to 19 November 2026 23:59:59".
Neither says which time zone that cut-off is in, so we wouldn't leave it until the final minutes, especially as GTA 6 unlocks at midnight local time on November 19 and you'll probably have other things on your mind by then (like whether your pre-load has actually finished).
A blast from the neon past
According to Rockstar Support, the Vintage Vice City Pack for digital buyers includes the following, with the Stanier being the pick of the bunch for anyone who likes their cars with a bit of chrome:
- A '55 Vapid Stanier Sedan and garage
- Outfits and hairstyles
- An exclusive weapon pattern
- One month of GTA+ membership
That last line is the catch if you're buying a boxed copy, as Rockstar lists the Stanier, the outfits and the weapon pattern for physical pre-orders but doesn't mention the month of GTA+ there, and the physical version is a code in a box rather than a disc anyway. GTA+ is Rockstar's paid monthly membership, so if you do claim the free month, it's worth checking your renewal settings before it runs out (it's exactly the sort of subscription that's easy to forget about until your bank statement turns up).
The Standard Edition is $79.99 on the Xbox Store, while the Ultimate Edition, widely listed at $99.99, adds extras Rockstar says are "threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia's story", including a '95 Grotti Cheetah, the Rideout Customs mod shop and the Goodtime Gear outfits. Both editions qualify for the pre-order pack, and Standard Edition owners can buy the Ultimate Edition Upgrade separately at any point after their code has been redeemed, so there's no need to splash out on the bigger edition just to get the freebies.
If you're still on the fence, it's also worth knowing that GTA 6 is single-player only at launch, with no date yet for any online mode.
Well, a free classic car is still a free classic car, and you wouldn't want to cruise into Vice City in anything less.
