How do you cancel on PlayStation?

The refund goes back to the payment method used, provided you cancel before the files are ready to preload. If you wait for the files, SVG says the refund window has usually closed. You can then contact PlayStation Support, with no guarantee.

And on Xbox?

Per SVG, payment is normally charged only 10 days before launch, on November 9. Cancelling before then costs nothing, since nothing was charged. Xbox would be more lenient than PlayStation: as long as you have not played early, cancelling is usually possible, with a full refund if you were charged. Still, act before November 12, since an installed game makes a refund less likely.

What about the boxed edition?

It holds no disc, only a download code, as explained in our boxed edition article. At a retailer, each store sets its own rule. At Rockstar, physical preorders run through Xsolla and can be cancelled before shipping. Rockstar said these editions should arrive around November 12, so act early in November.

What do you lose by cancelling?

The GTA Online preorder bonuses. SVG cites a free month of GTA+: unclaimed, it disappears with the cancellation. Prices, €79.99 for Standard and €99.99 for Ultimate, are on the price page.

Why it matters

A preorder is not binding to the end. Dates to note: November 9 for the Xbox charge, November 12 for preload, November 19 for release. Exact rules depend on each store, so check yours.
