GTA 6 PS5 boxed copies come with a download code, not a disc
GTA 6 boxed copies for PS5 contain a code to download the game rather than a disc, according to Push Square, as retailers start shipping them. The case does include a two-sided A3 poster, though Push Square says it is not a map.
Why it matters
If you were buying the box to own a disc, you won't get one. The code still means you need to download the game, so plan your storage space and connection before launch day.
The poster is the only physical extra Push Square mentions. Fans hoping for a printed map like older GTA boxes will be disappointed, because the report says this one isn't a map.
A boxed copy can still make sense as a gift or for collectors, but it gives you no offline install. Our preloading story explains how the early download works, and the GTA 6 hub tracks everything else Rockstar has shown.
