The excitement is building ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI’s imminent launch on November 19.
It’s unlikely Rockstar Games has too many surprises left in store. It’s already unveiled the game’s soundtrack, collector’s box, merchandise, in-game radios, and more.
Perhaps all that’s left to address is a possible PC port and the future of GTA Online, but those reveals probably aren’t going to arrive this side of the game’s launch.
Capitalising on all of this hype, <a href="https://comicvibe.com/some-sony-first-party-games-have-been-delisted-from-the-<a href="https://comicvibe.com/former-playstation-boss-kaz-hirai-used-to-ignore-orders-from-sony-bosses-he-reveals/” title=”Former PlayStation boss Kaz Hirai used to ignore orders from Sony bosses, he reveals”>playstation-store/” title=”Some Sony First-Party Games Have Been Delisted From the PlayStation Store”>PlayStation Plus has surfaced with an early update on a change to the service that’s due in November.
PlayStation Plus has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto V will be departing the service just a few days ahead of GTA VI’s launch.
In a pop-up message issued to PlayStation users, PlayStation said, “Play Grand Theft Auto Vnow with PlayStation Plus.”
“If you’re counting down the days until Grand Theft Auto VI arrives on PS5 on November 19, why not take a trip to Los Santos in the meantime?”
It continued, “Grand Theft Auto V is available to play in the Game Catalog for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members, but only until November 17.
“So whether you’ve yet to experience the tale of Franklin, Michael and Trevor, or want to revisit it before Jason and Lucia’s Vice City story begins, now’s the time.”
The pop-up then offers PlayStation Plus users the option to pre-order GTA VIor play GTA Von the subscription service.
It’s definitely achievable to roll credits on GTA V before it departs PS Plus
We won’t find out the rest of November’s departing games for some time.
October’s Extra and Premium tier additions are due to be unveiled on Wednesday, October 14.
In some territories, they’ll then land just under one week later on Tuesday, October 20.
In the US, UK, and Japan, PlayStation Plus continues to opt for a phased rollout, with the arrival date of each game to be confirmed alongside the line-up reveal on October 14.
When the Extra and Premium tier additions do arrive or begin to rollout from October 20, that’s when November’s departing games will be announced.
This gives players around one month to enjoy them, but at least you get an early heads-up on GTA V.
One game that is already confirmed to be joining the Extra tier in October is Mycopunk, with the day one release having been confirmed earlier this year at a State of Play.
Mycopunk is a co-op looter shooter that Borderlands and Helldivers players should get a kick out of.
The title is arriving on October 20 and this will mark Mycopunk’s arrival on PS5; the game is currently in early access on PC and will enter its 1.0 on the same day.
Back to GTA V GTA V’s main story takes around 32 hours to complete so you do have enough time to roll credits ahead of that November 17 deadline
If you want to tackle side quests too, you’re up to 51.5 hours which is a slightly taller order in the allotted time but it’s perhaps possible.
You shouldn’t embark on a completionist run at this stage. It’ll take you 89.5 hours which is a big time commitment.
Not only that, but you might actually burn yourself out on GTA, dulling the fun of diving into GTA VIon launch day.
