GTA 6 pre-orders LIVE: Ultimate Edition and exact time to buy unveiled – updates
Pre-orders of GTA 6 are live in Australia now, the second major country to get access to pre-orders today following New Zealand. In New Zealand, the price in NZ Dollars was revealed to be $139.95 for the standard edition or $175.95 for the Ultimate Edition. That’s an equivalent in Great British Pounds of exactly £60 and £75.44 respectively.
However, once converted into US Dollars, the prices makes a lot more sense. The equivalent is $79.02 and $99.35 – much closer to the announced price points revealed by Rockstar today.
In Australia, The cost is $129.95 and $159.95 respectively – which translates to a seemingly more expensive tag for our friends Down Under when it comes to the Ultimate Edition. In USD, it’s a whopping $110.38.
But when you remember that the majority of prices in the US are advertised as pre-tax costs, it makes a little bit more sense after all. If this trend continues, however, the GBP equivalent of the original prices would be £60.75 and £75.93 – which, let’s face it, would be much lower than we expected.
