01
The box contains a download code
No. Rockstar’s current support information says the boxed Standard Edition contains a digital download code rather than a disc.
02
What that changes for owners
That means installation requires a download even when the purchase arrives in a physical case. The package is scheduled to be available from 12 November to support pre-loading.
03
Pre-load and internet access
Product packaging can vary by market, so verify the retailer description and code region. A picture of a case should not be interpreted as evidence of a disc.
04
Check the retailer listing
Watch the official edition page, Rockstar Support and first-party console storefronts for changes to price, availability, fulfilment and eligibility. Always use the terms shown for your own account region at checkout.
05
