GTA 6 will be released exclusively for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. The game will not be available on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, making a current-generation console essential for players planning to experience the title at launch. Rockstar Games has not announced a personal computer version, although a later release is widely expected.
The game is expected to launch in India in two editions. The Standard Edition is priced at Rs. 5,999 and includes the complete base game with all core features. The Ultimate Edition is expected to retail for Rs. 7,499 and will include additional in-game content along with bonus items. Digital pre-orders officially began on June 25, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. Select editions are also expected to include exclusive pre-order bonus content.
Rockstar Games has introduced several major gameplay enhancements in GTA 6. Players will experience the story through dual protagonists, Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval, while exploring the expansive fictional state of Leonida. The game features cities, beaches, highways, swamps, and rural regions, creating what is reportedly the largest map in Grand Theft Auto history. A dynamic weather system will continuously alter environmental conditions, while improved non-playable character behaviour will allow characters to respond more naturally to player actions. The game also introduces significantly more enterable buildings and interactive activities than previous titles.
Although Rockstar Games has not confirmed official personal computer hardware requirements, industry estimates suggest that players may require an Intel Core i7-9700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X processor, a minimum of 16 GB RAM, an NVIDIA RTX 3080 or AMD RX 6800 XT graphics card, and at least 150 GB of solid-state drive storage for optimal performance.
Indian gamers planning to upgrade their gaming setup should also consider the overall hardware investment required. A PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X is estimated to cost between Rs. 49,990 and Rs. 54,990. A 43-inch to 55-inch 4K Smart Television is expected to cost between Rs. 25,000 and Rs. 65,000. Gaming headsets are priced from Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 30,000, while additional gaming controllers are expected to cost between Rs. 5,000 and Rs. 8,000. The estimated total cost of a complete GTA 6 gaming setup in India ranges from Rs. 70,000 to Rs. 1,50,000.
Customers planning to purchase gaming consoles, televisions, accessories, or a complete gaming setup can finance their purchases through an Easy EMI Loan offered by Bajaj Finance. Financing of up to Rs. 5 lakh is available with repayment tenures ranging from three to sixty months, allowing customers to divide the total purchase amount into manageable monthly instalments without a substantial upfront payment. Select products are also available with a zero down payment offer, subject to eligibility.
Customers can visit any of the more than 1.5 lakh Bajaj Finance partner stores, verify their pre-approved limit online using their registered mobile number and one-time password, and complete their purchase on the same day. Existing Insta EMI Network Card holders can convert eligible purchases into equated monthly instalments through a paperless process.
Gamers intending to build or upgrade their gaming setup can compare gaming consoles, televisions, gaming headsets, and accessories before visiting a partner outlet. At the store, customers can evaluate shortlisted products based on performance, display quality, and gaming specifications before selecting financing through the Easy EMI Loan facility. Once financing approval is completed, customers can immediately take home their selected products.
