GTA 6 PS5 Deal: How to save $15 on the ultimate edition with a PlayStation gift card

Grand Theft Auto 6 fans looking to preorder the game on PS5 have been searching for ways to cut the cost. With the Ultimate Edition priced at $99.99, even a small discount can make a difference. A deal highlighted by IGN offered a way to save $15 by buying discounted PlayStation Store credit through Newegg. However, the original offer has now ended, and a new gift card promotion is available instead.

How can you save money on GTA 6 Ultimate Edition?

The original Newegg deal allowed shoppers to purchase a $100 PlayStation Store digital gift card for $85 by entering promo code GTWF2793 at checkout. That meant buyers could get $100 in PlayStation credit while paying $15 less.


The credit could then be used to preorder the digital Ultimate Edition of GTA 6 on PS5, which was listed at $99.99. The Standard Edition was priced at $79.99. The information is taken from Mashable.

According to IGN's commerce editor, this gift card offer was one of the best ways to save because retailers were not offering a direct discount on the game itself. Once purchased, the digital gift card code would typically arrive by email within an hour, sometimes in just a few minutes. Buyers could then sign in to their PlayStation Network account, select the “Redeem Code” option and enter the 12-digit code to add the credit to their wallet.

They could then visit the GTA 6 store page and preorder their preferred edition.

What is the new Newegg PlayStation gift card deal?

The $100 gift card offer using code GTWF2793 has ended. Newegg is now offering a different promotion: customers who buy a $250 PlayStation Store gift card receive an additional $40 gift card, with no promo code required.

The new offer provides $290 in PlayStation credit for a $250 purchase. That works out to a similar percentage saving, but it requires spending considerably more upfront.

For players who already expect to spend that amount on PlayStation games and digital content, the offer may be worth considering. Those who only want to cover the cost of GTA 6, however, may prefer to wait for another deal rather than tie up extra money in store credit. The information is taken from IGN.

Is the GTA 6 preorder discount still available?

The original $15 saving is no longer available through the expired promotion. The replacement offer requires a larger purchase, and there is no guarantee that another discount will appear before launch. It is expected that Newegg may offer more discounted PlayStation credit before GTA 6 arrives. For now, buyers should compare the current promotion with their planned spending before committing to a gift card.
