What is inside the GTA 6 box on Xbox? A download code, a double-sided A3 poster at some retailers, and no paper map: according to Pure Xbox, the map will be a free download at launch. Big-N reports the same details for the PS5 box.
The physical edition on Xbox Series X|S and PS5 has no disc: the box holds a code redeemed on the Microsoft Store. Pure Xbox says the boxed copy now comes with a double-sided A3 poster, "at least" at certain retailers, with the main artwork on one side and character art on the other. Big-N notes it is unclear whether the poster is exclusive or standard.
This is the new part. Rockstar drops the folding map of earlier GTA boxes. Per Pure Xbox, a digital map will be free to download at launch for every buyer. A paper copy will be sold on the Rockstar Store "shortly after launch" for $0.99, according to both outlets; Pure Xbox expects it to sell out fast.
Rockstar gave November 12 as the shipping date, yet several retailers say they ship on the 11th, and a few players reportedly already have a copy. You can also preload from tonight through the Xbox mobile app. See our earlier stories on the box photographed in Germany and pricing.

The box becomes mostly a display or gift item, as Pure Xbox puts it, and the map moves from paper to file. Still unknown: whether every store includes the poster, and when the paper map goes on sale.
