Some Xbox users are reportedly obtaining GTA 6 pre-orders without paying, according to reports. The method behind how these free pre-orders are being secured remains unclear.
Details about the scope of the situation—including how many users are affected or whether this is isolated to specific regions—have not been specified. It’s also unknown whether these free pre-orders represent a legitimate promotional offering or an unintended system glitch.
Rockstar Games and Microsoft have not made official statements about the matter at this time.
For players counting down to launch, this highlights the importance of monitoring official channels for any announcements regarding pre-order promotions or eligibility changes before the November 2026 release.
