Retailer listings indicate that Walmart plans to include a complimentary surprise and delight bag
with pre-orders of Grand Theft Auto 6 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Social media leaks also point to this offer. Neither the retailer nor publisher Rockstar Games has officially detailed the contents of the mystery items.
Walmart Prepares Surprise Delivery Bags
Customers purchasing pre-orders of Grand Theft Auto 6 through Walmart are slated to receive a surprise and delight bag
packed into their delivery. Promotional images are surfacing on social media accounts like Nintendeal and Forward Leaks. The promotion covers both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the title. Store records indicate that the mystery items will ship inside a General Merchandise Delivery bag while supplies last.

Walmart has a history of coupling video game launches with novelty snack items. During the Nintendo Switch 2 pre-order window, the retail giant distributed promotional snack kits containing items like Pringles and Coca-Cola.
Polymarket predictions indicate a 97% likelihood that the title will achieve a Metacritic score of 90 or higher. Polymarket predictions also show a 59% expectation for a 97+ rating—matching the marks earned by Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA V. According to Sensor Tower, GTA 6 pre-orders are nearing the 7 million mark. Footwear collaborations involving Travis Scott, Nike, and Rockstar have emerged as a separate development surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI.

November Deadlines Bring Code-in-a-Box Realities
The pre-order packages from Walmart are scheduled to arrive starting on November 12, 2026. That date coincides with the opening of the game’s pre-load window, allowing buyers to download the required files ahead of the official launch. Picking up a copy from a retailer does not grant early access to gameplay, as the title releases globally on November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Buyers opening their retail cases will find a digital download voucher rather than an optical disc. Players must clear a substantial 210 GB of SSD storage on their consoles to accommodate the game files.

Rockstar Sells Separate Collector Bundles
Rockstar Games has structured separate merchandise offerings. The developer is producing an 11-piece Collector’s Box priced at $400, which packs custom Oakley sunglasses, a New Era cap, and a physical map of Leonida. That premium crate does not include the video game itself, which is sold separately. This is on top of the Vintage Vice City pack everyone else will receive.
Standard game pre-orders remain priced at $79.99 at Walmart, with the surprise and delight offer attached to qualifying deliveries while inventory lasts.
