As soon as pre-orders opened for GTA 6, controversy ensued. Folks immediately started complaining about how there’s no actual physical version of the game, with only a box and a code available for purchase. This went so far as to have a good chunk of retailers refusing to even sell these “physical” copies due to their lack of anything, well, physical.
But as we wrote previously, Rockstar Games’ own support appeared to dispel these sentiments, saying that actual physical copies will become available “in the coming months,” likely after release to prevent accidental leaks tied to pre-loads. However, a new report cites internal Rockstar sources that say no physical discs will ever come out, not before or after release.
That is according to Wccftech (via The Hollywood Reporter), which claims a credible source said that “there are no plans for GTA 6 discs to be printed” either on release or at any point afterward. This contradicts Rockstar Games’ own words, as noted above, and completely muddies the water regarding a potential disc version of GTA 6.
