Promotion Eligibility and Membership
Customers must hold a My Best Buy membership, available at no cost, though paid tiers exist with added perks. The promotion applies when the game preorder and console are bought separately rather than as an official bundle. The $50 certificate posts to accounts around November 25, 2026.
Console Options and Pricing Examples
Eligible hardware includes the PS5 825GB Digital Edition, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X or S, and various PS5 Slim models. A refurbished PS5 Digital Edition currently lists at $499.99, which drops to an effective $450 after the reward certificate. GTA 6 must be purchased alongside the console to qualify.
Preorder Payment and Release Details
Best Buy does not charge for preorders until the game ships, allowing buyers to acquire a console immediately while deferring the $80 game cost. The physical edition consists of a code in a box that arrives November 12 to enable early pre-loading. The offer targets owners of older hardware seeking to upgrade for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S exclusive release.
