Walmart’s physical GTA 6 preorders include a mystery gift bag

The shift toward digital-only media for major releases has left many physical game boxes containing nothing more than a redemption code. For GTA 6, players face a 210GB download requirement, rendering the traditional plastic case a mere placeholder. Walmart’s strategy of including promotional swag follows a pattern established by their previous bundles, which have included snack kits and branded stickers for other high-profile hardware releases.

For those seeking more substantial physical items, Rockstar Games is offering a separate $400 Collector's Box. This premium set features an 11-piece collection including custom Oakley sunglasses, a New Era cap, and a physical map of the game's Leonida setting. Notably, this high-end memorabilia package does not include the game software itself, requiring fans to purchase the title separately to begin playing.
