Fans of Grand Theft Auto VI are debating whether Rockstar Games should offer early access to the game. Early access has become a growing trend in the gaming industry. It lets players pay extra to play a game before its official release.
Games like Dune: Awakening used this strategy. Players who bought the deluxe edition got to play five days before launch. However, that early access came with a much higher price.
Now, some GTA fans wonder if GTA 6 will follow the same path. On Reddit, a fan asked if Rockstar might offer early access for players who buy a more expensive version of the game.
Most fans believe Rockstar will not go this route. Many pointed out that Rockstar has never done early access with its major releases before. Some fans also worry about spoilers flooding the internet if early access happens.
One fan simply said, “Rockstar doesn’t pull that kind of thing.” Another added, “Imagine the spoilers that will hit the internet on the first day.”
Although GTA 6 is expected to launch on 26 May 2026, fans will have to wait and see if Rockstar sticks to its usual release style or decides to follow this growing trend in gaming.
