QUICK ANSWER

Standard owners can purchase the Ultimate add-on through PlayStation or Microsoft. Boxed-code owners must redeem their game code first.

Before you buy the upgrade

  1. Confirm which account owns your Standard purchase.
  2. If you bought a box, redeem its game code first.
  3. Open your platform’s store and look for the Ultimate Edition Upgrade add-on.
  4. Check the price, platform and base-game requirement before confirming. Avoid buying a second full game by mistake.

Does upgrading later cost the same?

We have not verified a separate upgrade price here. A difference between two full-edition prices does not prove what the add-on will cost. Compare your actual checkout totals, including any regional taxes.

What should I compare before upgrading?

Rockstar lists the Ganado Retro Build, Squalo and Rideout Customs in the Ultimate collection. Check its complete list rather than buying for a single screenshot.
