The listing confirms that the Standard Edition of the highly anticipated title is priced at ₹7,499 INR, marking one of the highest base prices for a standard console release in the region.
PS5 Pro Enhanced & Next-Gen Features Confirmed
The store listing clearly highlights that GTA 6 will be PS5 Pro Enhanced, confirming that Sony's mid-gen upgrade will receive dedicated optimization to deliver superior graphics and performance. Furthermore, the listing outlines support for key DualSense features, including vibration function and trigger effect (haptic feedback and adaptive triggers), alongside remote play capabilities and optional in-game purchases.
GTA+ Subscription Bonus
As an added incentive, players who pre-order Grand Theft Auto VI will receive a 1-month subscription to GTA+, Rockstar's premium membership service. The subscription is set to auto-renew after the promotional period. This bonus suggests that Rockstar is aiming to tie the launch of GTA 6 closely to its subscription ecosystem, providing players with immediate perks when they jump into the game.
Indian Gaming Community Reacts to Pricing
The ₹7,499 price tag has sparked immediate discussion across the Indian gaming community. While local fans are thrilled that the game is finally available for pre-order, the steep pricing represents a significant jump compared to typical ₹4,999 or ₹5,999 launches. Nonetheless, pre-orders are expected to break records given the unparalleled hype surrounding Rockstar's next masterpiece.
Our Take
The listing of GTA 6 on the Indian PlayStation Store is a major milestone as we edge closer to launch. The PS5 Pro Enhanced tag is particularly exciting, promising that the game will push console hardware to its absolute limits from day one.
