Rockstar has officially announced the collector's edition for GTA 6, titled Grand Theft Auto 6: The Goodtime State – Vice City Collection. Contrary to earlier speculation, the collection does not include a physical copy of the game and consists entirely of merchandise.
Merchandise lineup revealed
The merchandise is themed around Macca the Gator, an in-universe TV show popular in Leonida, the fictional Florida stand-in that serves as the main setting of GTA 6. The full list of items, as confirmed on Rockstar's website, includes:
- Macca the Gator Figure
- Oakley Frogskins Sunglasses
- Leonida Keys Crossbody Bag
- New Era 9FORTY Snapback Hat
- Macca the Gator Magnetic Mirror
- Chunkee the Manatee Shot Glass
- Vice City Collectible Swizzle Spoon
- Vice City Razor Blade Keychain
- Leonida Keys Enamel Pin Set in Metal Tin
- Leonida Keys Sticker Pack in Stash Bag
- Double-Sided Souvenir Poster with Map of Leonida
Pricing and availability
The collection is available for pre-order and will ship starting November 19, the same day as GTA 6's launch. It is priced at £349.99, with Rockstar warning it's available 'while stocks last.'
Last week, Rockstar also announced an official GTA 6 soundtrack, available digitally and physically on November 19, featuring new licensed songs from the game. For fans purchasing the standard edition of the game, the soundtrack on CD, and the Vice City collection, the total comes to nearly £431. Pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition at £89.99 and the limited edition vinyl soundtrack at £108.99 brings the total to just under £549.
Industry context and speculation
The absence of a physical game in the collector's edition may disappoint some, but Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has previously stated that discs 'don't really make sense' for big games nowadays. Meanwhile, Sony has announced two GTA 6 themed PlayStation 5 controllers, priced at £74.99 each on the PlayStation Direct website, though no console bundle has been revealed.
