Best Buy Is Offering $100 Gift Cards For $60 This Weekend, And That’s Great If You Want GTA 6’s Premium Edition

GameSpot · ·

To celebrate its 60th anniversary, retailer Best Buy is offering $100 gift cards for only $60, and the timing is great if you want the $100 Ultimate Edition of GTA 6.

The offer is good for one day only, August 22, and you'll need to visit a store in person to get the gift card. Additionally, Best Buy said quantities are limited, so people are encouraged to show up early. The fine print states that each Best Buy location has a minimum of 50 gift cards.

GTA 6's Ultimate Edition costs $100, so if you're interested in that game, you can effectively get it for $60. Alternatively, you could use the $100 gift card to buy the game's $80 standard edition and still have money left over. Or you can use the $100 to buy anything else your heart desires from Best Buy. It's your life.

GTA 6 will be available in a physical copy at Best Buy and other retailers, but the game does not come on a disc. Instead, you'll get a code in the box.

Some of Best Buy's other 60th-anniversary deals include Beats Studio Pro headphones for $160 (was $350), Apple AirPods Pro 3 for $190 (was $250), and up to 60% off a ton of video games.

As for GTA 6, the game launches on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar Games will show the game off via Netflix on August 27, but people have already gotten a new glimpse at the game through the many leaks.
