Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19, but gamers can still pre-order a copy and save more than £16, with digital pre-loading now underway. The latest Rockstar Games blockbuster is available for pre-order at Argos for £48.37 after cashback through TopCashback, down from the usual £64.99 price.
Pre-load and delivery details
Rockstar brought forward the digital pre-load date to Tuesday, November 10, letting gamers download the game ahead of launch. Players opting for a disc-less physical copy can get it delivered as soon as Thursday, November 12, with Argos offering free standard delivery from that date.
At Argos, a pre-order of the PS5 edition usually costs £64.99, but this can be reduced to less than £49 for shoppers who create a TopCashback account. The site pays new members a £15 sign-up bonus when spending £15 or more, plus cashback at Argos.
How the deal works
Combining these payments means GTA VI effectively costs £48.37 after cashback, saving £16.62 from the usual price. This is only available for new TopCashback members and new Argos customers, but new TopCashback members who already shop at Argos can still secure a heavily reduced £49.72 after cashback.
Elsewhere, GAME is still taking pre-orders for £64.99, while fans opting for the Ultimate Edition must pay £89.99 on the PlayStation Store. With days to go until launch, Rockstar has confirmed the game will require 212GB of storage space depending on the console, reports Birmingham Live.
Game details and extra content
The publisher will also release a printable GTA VI cover art poster and map of the fictional Leonida state as a free digital download to its site from November 19. A double-sided physical version will also be available shortly after launch.
GTA VI will transport players back to Vice City, the Miami-inspired backdrop of the 2002 instalment, as the official synopsis reads: "Vice City, USA. Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them, but when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida – forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive."
For those yet to upgrade their console ahead of launch, O2 is offering a more affordable way to secure a PS5. The mobile network lets gamers pre-order GTA VI and PS5 bundles starting from £145 upfront and £12.53 per month over 36 months, equal to roughly 41p per day.
How to pre-order and shopper reviews
To pre-order GTA VI on PS5 for £48.37, shoppers can sign up to TopCashback, search for Argos, click 'Get Cashback Now', and shop and checkout as usual. Cashback will track and appear in the TopCashback account within seven working days of purchase, becoming payable after Argos has paid TopCashback the commission.
While reviews for GTA VI have yet to drop, many shoppers have shared their views of TopCashback on Trustpilot, where it holds a 4.6-star rating following more than 166,000 reviews. "Such a great site and a great way to keep costs down," one says. "Payouts are timely and easy to access." Another says: "TopCashback is really good. Very fast payout [and] great discount from lots of retailers." A third member left a more mixed four-star review, saying: "It's a good way to make a bit of cash but some retailers are slow to pay out and you have to chase it up. Otherwise, a great site." While this five-star review says: "Really love this, it's the best out there for easy earning and payouts."
