Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders are in full swing at Amazon, Walmart, GameStop, and elsewhere, about gazillion people have already secured a copy, and Rockstar still hasn’t even showed us any real gameplay. It hasn’t even really detailed much more than the game world at this point, but Amazon is not only in the midst of its giant Prime Day sale right now, but it also might have just leaked some new tidbits regarding real-time protagonist switching, in-game social network action that ties into secret side missions, and more.
- Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders are now live at Amazon on PS5 and Xbox.
- Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders are now live at Walmart on PS5 and Xbox.
- Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders are now live at GameStop on PS5 or Xbox.
Now, it’s hard to say for sure whether or not the description Amazon Brazil now has up on its pre-order page is actually real, or just someone internally assuming things – I mean it is largely just what most of us likely expected. But we will drop the details (machine translated) from the listing page just in case for those interested:
- AVAILABLE TO PLAY ON 11/19/2026 WITH ADVANCE DELIVERY.
- FORMAT: CODE IN BOX: PHYSICAL VERSION OF GTA VI CONTAINING DOWNLOAD CODE INSIDE THE PACKAGING.
- PRE-ORDER: All pre-orders and purchases of Grand Theft Auto VI made before November 20th will receive the Vintage Vice City Pack, a collection of items reminiscent of the era when neon shone brightest.
- LARGER MAP: Explore Vice City, beaches, swamps, small towns, and various regions of Leonida.
- TWO PLAYABLE PROTAGONISTS: Switch between Jason and Lucia during the story and participate in missions as a duo.
- A MORE VIBRANT OPEN WORLD: NPCs with their own routines, random events, interactive establishments, and a greater sense of immersion.
- INTEGRATED SOCIAL NETWORKS: Watch viral videos, follow influencers, and discover world events through your in-game mobile phone.
- NEXT-GENERATION GRAPHICS: Advanced lighting, dynamic weather, more natural animations, and a high level of detail in environments.
I think it was pretty safe to say the real-time character switching was a high probability already considering how GTA V worked and the dual protagonist action with Jason and Lucia. We also saw glimpses of what appeared to be in-game social networking content in the official trailer, and we all assumed there would be advancements in NPC AI routines and the like. All good stuff all around by the sounds of it, but nothing unexpected.
Reports also surfaced this morning regard another Brazilian retailer’s description of the game, but this one is largely the same as Amazon’s and reads a lot like someone just expanded upon what they saw on Amazon (maybe) and in the official trailers:
Explore the state of Leonida and the new Vice City.
Grand Theft Auto VI redefines the concept of open-world (sandbox) gameplay. Explore the most massive, dense, and insane map ever created by Rockstar Games. Traverse the neon-lit streets of a pulsating Vice City , dominate dangerous swamps, crowded beaches, and realistic suburbs that cover the state of Leonida from end to end. Every inch of the environment has been designed to deliver brutal immersion and total freedom.
Lucia and Jason: Cooperative gameplay and a duo of protagonists.
The main campaign features a unique dynamic with the franchise’s first criminal couple. Switch control between Jason and Lucia in real time , dictating the pace of the story and executing highly coordinated heists. Experience the evolution of character management, where each protagonist possesses unique abilities that directly influence the criminal ecosystem and the tactical intelligence of the missions.
A living world controlled by Artificial Intelligence.
The universe of GTA VI pulsates in a hyper-realistic way. The NPCs (non-player characters) have their own routines based on advanced AI, generating organic random events across the map. The great innovation lies in the in-game integration of social networks: your character’s cell phone consumes viral videos in real time, allowing you to follow Vice City influencers and discover secret side missions through social media.
Next-gen graphics and performance on PS5 and PS5 Pro
Developed natively to extract maximum power from Sony’s hardware, GTA 6 delivers breathtaking visuals. The updated graphics engine features:
- Global Illumination with Advanced Ray Tracing: Perfect reflections on cars and water in Vice City.
