One of the biggest game releases ever is now just weeks away. GTA 6 will arrive on consoles on Thursday November 19 with fans of the famous franchise already rushing to pre-order and install it ahead of its official arrival. The Standard Edition is available on the Xbox and PlayStation priced at £69.99. There’s also an Ultimate Edition with bonus content, which costs £89.99. If that sounds a bit steep, there is a much cheaper way to get access to this blockbuster title.
O2 has announced the launch of a deal that’s letting gamers buy GTA 6 on a monthly payment plan. This means it’s possible to play the game for just 4.6 pence per day.
Sound enticing? Here’s how the offer works. Gamers can pre-order GTA 6 and just pay £20 upfront. This is then followed by 36 monthly payments of £1.39.
The deal is also available to non-O2 customers, but they must be 18 or over due to the title’s age restrictions. There’s not even any extras to pay with O2 confirming that the payments are based on a 0 percent plan.
The total price of the deal is £70.04, which is just a few pence more than buying the game directly.
“With anticipation reaching fever pitch for Grand Theft Auto VI, one of the most talked-about entertainment releases of the decade, O2 is helping fans secure their copy for under 5p a day,” O2 explained.
“Whether players are counting down the days until they return to Vice City, planning launch-day gaming sessions with friends, or simply looking to be part of gaming’s biggest cultural moment, O2 is making it easier than ever to get launch-ready, without the large upfront expense.”
GTA 6 looks set to break all records with it estimated that over 4.5 million copies have already been sold ahead of the official launch.
The title, which succeeds GTA 5, promises a huge open world packed with all the usual crime, chaos and plenty of action.
Set in the fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida, the game returns to Vice City, where players can explore a sprawling environment filled with missions, characters and criminal adventures.
It follows the dual protagonists, Lucia and Jason, as they navigate a dangerous underworld. Expectations are sky-high, with fans hoping GTA 6 will redefine open-world gaming when it launches.
