This article was originally published on link to post

After years of development and multiple delays, Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto 6 is finally launching on November 19, and you can now actually preorder the game. The $80 game arrives on November 19, but you can actually preload it a week earlier, which is nice for the countless people who no doubt want to begin playing the second they can.

Here’s everything you need to know about GTA 6 preloading.

GTA 6 preload schedule

GTA 6 players who preorder a digital copy of GTA 6 can begin preloading on November 12. This is to “ensure they are able to play at launch,” Rockstar said.

GTA 6 is not going to be released on a disc, but Rockstar is still selling physical copies of the game at retailers with a code in the box.

The game’s physical edition will be available to buy on November 12 “to support preloading,” Rockstar said. So if you walk into a GameStop or Walmart on November 12 and see a copy of GTA 6 on the shelves to buy, you can do so, but the game itself won’t unlock until November 19.
