GTA 6 PS5 File Size Confirmed to Be 212GB, Physical Map Available But Not in Boxed Copies

"On November 19 we will be adding an official printable Grand Theft Auto VI cover art poster and map of Leonida as a free digital download to the official site," Rockstar revealed. "A double-sided physical version of this poster will also be made available shortly after launch from the Rockstar Store — for $0.99 on its own or as a free gift with any purchase from the Rockstar Store."

Oooh the times we live in 👀

Wow, have to pay $1 for the physical map that has been a staple in the games if you get the code in a box or buy something on the R*’store? Greedy much?

Clearly the printing budget has been blown producing the box codes.

I genuinely hate this...

This is a huge W

I like the idea of buying the map from the store for people who want it but get the game digitally, but not including even a map for the physical box? That's mad.

Another day, another crap decision by a gaming company.

Absolutely hilarious. They couldn't even put a printed map inside of the "physical" copy, that's how little they care about their customers. Rockstar SUCKS

Rockstar continue to take "taking the piss" to newer heights.

Really dumb to not have the pack-in physical map included with every physical copy and have it restricted to copies from their storefront or charge for it.

That´s disappointing. Had hopes that there is at least a printed map in the box. Oh my.
If the Box will even be a regular disc case or just a paper-box? We will see

No matter what they do, people will complain anyway so why put more effort into it xD

That's if you want a real physical version of it.

• Yes I do and yes I will. I still think it's a really greedy move on Rockstar's behalf but I was going to try Etsy either way. I'd rather have the option than no option.

Charging 99p for the map god R* greed knows no bounds doesn't it

Cry much? I'll be buying the map as I'll be getting the game digitally anyway.

So I wonder how much postage will cost for a 99p map...

Some of the worst decisions made by a company will probably end up in one of the most profitable games ever anyways.

That's gamers for you.

People whine about discs and cartridges ending which is nonsense. Digital is so much better than an arbitrary software container.

The real tragedy happened years ago. The end of physical booklets and maps.

Lol, these companies are such a joke. Not even the map, which became a tradition for Rockstar games, is included.

The enshittification continues.

$0.99 plus $7.95 shipping and handling.

Soon to be announced, in addition to paying full price for the code in the box game, you also have to pay the additional paper charge for the piece of paper in the box that contains the code 😜

It would make all the sense in the world to include the map, but they cant’t give people a reason to buy the “physical” code in a box over the digital versions.

@Cjam36
Yes, but then they can come out and say physical sales were really poor compared to digital, so no need to keep selling codes in boxes.
The only real tragedy is that people still cant see the full all digital picture, and think 'convenience'.
Like sheep. In a cage. On antibiotics.

They are charging $1 for the map because they know millions will buy it.

I don't like it as a consumer but I understand the logic of Strauss Zelnick. Why turn away free money for very little effort

Much ado over nothing. Looking forward to this on day one, piece of paper included or not. More interested in an official strategy guide.

Is this another stop spoilers strategy?

1€ you say? I'll take 100. GTFO!

Remember the days when GTA took the piss out of American capitalism? Well why fight it when you can join it aye? 🙈

Well that’s like a third of total base storage. I think I’ll wait until the many, many patches are done. Type of game that requires everything to be shelved except for GTA.

@VeldinX how do you know it still doesn't make fun of capitalism?

@Cjam36 save the trees I reckon

@Nakatomi_Uk if that breaks the bank for ya.. Jeeez lol. I'll just use the in game one I don't want a tree to die just for something that's a spoiler

They must be joking, why can’t they include this with the pseudo physical copy?

There are two things which are infinite in this life: greed and stupidity

Yet still no info on PS5 Pro enhancements.

I have 8tb Samsung 9100 pro, so no storage issues for me lol.

And for those buying the map alone, $0.99 for the map plus it will probably be $20 for shipping.

People buying a code in a box so they can put a useless piece of plastic on their shelf are… interesting.

@Fallon People love to whine about a 99¢ map while gladly paying $20 a month for battle passes.

@asdfghjklz “physical” edition is cheaper than the digital. Why spend more for the same thing. Both end up in a digital purchase

I love the way they try and sell us physical merch for games but not physical games. Of course the usual suspects will see no double standards here.

@Fallon True, it probably will but doesn’t land the same. I mean we’re all going to be playing the game regardless but it was just my observation that they’ve lost a lot of heart over the years.

Scum company. Lap it up people.

@KernCasey all about Shareholder returns 📈

What's next?

Pre-order now and get a free pink kazoo to go with it. Numbers are limited. First come, first served.

I didn’t really read the article. But it feels like something that will make boxed copy people mad so I’m 100% for it.
