Release Timeline and Box Copy Distribution

According to the RockstarINTEL report, physical copies of GTA 6 have started arriving at major retailers on November 12, with retailers expected to list the discs for sale beginning November 19, the official launch date.

Take-Two and Rockstar confirmed that the game cases were shipped to stores and some staff posted images showing the back cover, which lists a 230GB installation requirement and an online functions icon.

New Screenshots and Online Feature Insights

The article includes three newly released screenshots depicting the protagonists Lucia and Jason alongside a plane flying over the Keys, providing the first real‑world visual glimpse of the game's characters and environment.

An icon indicating online functions on the case suggests either a forthcoming update to GTA Online next year or the ability to purchase the Ultimate Edition upgrade directly from within the game, though Rockstar has not clarified the exact purpose.
