We finally have the price for GTA 6, when you will be able to actually pre order it and what editions you may have. And this may be a massive, massive disappointment to a lot of people. So GTA 6 is coming in two different versions. The base version will be $80, Nintendo 100% open Pandora's box, that is what it is. And the ultimate edition will be $99.99. We got tons of new artwork which seems really interesting. Got a bunch of new like pre-order information, but what's interesting here is every single thing, even in the ultimate edition, it is all 100% digital. The physical copies of GTA VI contain a download code and no disc. And the physical version of GTA VI will have no disc in the box. It is going to have a code. This is 100% a massive disappointment. Um, this does not mean that I am not still excited for the game. This does not mean I am not going to be playing this on day one. There's just the reality of the situation. This is kind of unfortunate. I think a lot of the stuff is really cool here. I think most people are just probably going to go ahead and do the $100 edition to get like extra skins, this for that, whatever. I'm just not somebody who puts that much value into digital content. And the actual time that you can pre-order this is midnight locally. So again, whenever it is midnight for you, on the 25th, but again, the physical editions have absolutely nothing in them. There's no disc, it's just a code, the digital storefronts, you know, you won't even be able to download this until November 12th, you know, so I, you know, a lot of people may hold out on pre-ordering this, which is perfectly okay. This kind of sucks a little bit. I think a lot of the stuff is really cool here.
