GTA 6 reports and rumours
The GTA 6 poster is in the case, MediaMarkt DMs claim
Report, not confirmed by Rockstar
What is being reported
People from MediaMarkt told videotech on X that the double-sided poster is inside the GTA 6 case and is official Rockstar material, as TwistedVoxel reported on 7 November.
This is a report, not an announcement from Rockstar. We track whether it turns out true in the claims register; when Rockstar confirms or denies it, this page gets an update and the label above changes.
If you pre-ordered a boxed GTA 6 at MediaMarkt, the poster may already be waiting in the case. Ben, who posts on X as videotech, wrote at 12:12 UTC on 7 November that people from MediaMarkt were sending him DMs, “directly confirming the game DOES include the poster enclosed and it’s official material from Rockstar”. He added: “Looks like they unboxed the game early.” TwistedVoxel reported the claim the same day.
Those are messages to one account, not a statement from MediaMarkt or Rockstar. MediaMarkt’s own German listing sells the boxed game “inkl. Poster”; our report on the MediaMarkt poster listing has what the listing and its Instagram post show.
Rockstar’s own support page says nothing about a poster in the case. It says the box holds a download code and no disc, and is “expected to become available for shipping and pickup from retailers starting on November 12”. The code can be used as soon as you have it, so a box that arrives early can pre-load from 10 November. The game unlocks at midnight local time on 19 November. Rockstar’s own cover-art poster and Leonida map are free downloads on 19 November.
Still unknown: whether every case holds a poster, and whether boxes really left the stockroom early. If you get a box early, make room first: Rockstar puts the pre-load at “up to 212 GB depending on your device”. The physical copy page covers what is in the box, and the editions page how the Ultimate upgrade works. The claim and its status are in our claims register.
