A petition for a physical disc edition of Grand Theft Auto VI: https://t.co/ls99Hn9WMl
We're three video game stores in Winnipeg, Manitoba. On our own we're easy to ignore.
Together, we're a number they can't. Add your name to the call for a real GTA 6 disc release.
If we reach 10,000 responses, we'll take it straight to Take-Two.
We appreciate your time - Play Forever! 🎮

GTA6 is NOT $80!!! The Standard Edition locks hair salons, tattoo shops, and story missions behind a velvet rope. If you want the actual, complete game, you’re paying $100 for the Ultimate Edition! Rockstar didn't beat the rumor, they repackaged it.
Remember when Game-Key Cards were “the death of physical media”? Now people are ready to pay $80 for GTA VI, $100 for the Ultimate Edition, and accept a box with nothing but a download code.
Funny how outrage disappears when it’s Rockstar.
Consistency matters.
I’m glad (and not shocked at all) that GTA6 is the most anti-consumer goyslop imaginable. Even if Rockstar gets away with it, other publishers will follow suit and it will backfire HARD. Accelerate the bubble popping on the AAA gaming industry.
A Statement from VGP Regarding Grand Theft Auto VI
As gamers and retailers, we recognize that Grand Theft Auto VI is poised to be one of the biggest entertainment launches in history. The excitement surrounding this release is unprecedented, and we understand why so many customers are eagerly anticipating its arrival.
For nearly 40 years, VGP has been committed to supporting physical media and preserving the value of physical game ownership. As part of that commitment, our company policy is that we do not carry physical products for video game consoles that contain only a digital download code.
Based on the information currently available, the physical release of Grand Theft Auto VI for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X is expected to be a code-in-box product. As a result, VGP will not be offering it for sale under our current company policy.
We want to be clear that this decision is not a reflection of the game itself. We have tremendous respect for Rockstar Games and the incredible achievement that Grand Theft Auto VI represents.
Should Rockstar one day release a physical edition containing a disc in the box, we would be pleased to carry and support that version for our customers.
Thank you for your continued support of physical gaming and for helping us champion game preservation and ownership for nearly four decades.
— The VGP Team
