Sony Reminds PlayStation Plus Subscribers That GTA 5 Leaves the Library 2 Days Before GTA 6 Launches

PS5 and PS4 players who use PS Plus to play GTA 5 and GTA Online should make the most of their time, as their days are numbered. GTA 5 will be removed from the PS Plus catalog in November, just two days before GTA 6 launches.

PS5 and PS4 players using PS Plus for GTA 5 and GTA Online better get their hours in because their days are numbered. GTA 5 is being removed from the PS Plus catalog just two days before GTA 6 launches in November.

GTA 5 has sold over 230 million copies since its release in 2013, so you'd think most people interested in experiencing Rockstar's sprawling, beautiful Los Angeles take would have already done so. But if you're one of the few who haven't, you have until November 17th to do so via PS Plus.

Sony has warned PS5 players about this change. "If you're counting down the days until GTA 6 hits PS5 on November 19th, why not take a trip to Los Santos in the meantime?" The message said.

"GTA 5 is available to play in the game catalog for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members, but only until November 17th. So whether you haven't experienced Franklin, Michael and Trevor's story yet, or want to revisit it before Jason and Lucia's Vice City story begins, now is the time."

After this window, there was a request to pre-order GTA 6. This is just another example of how big Rockstar's sequel will be and how it will affect game sales for platform owners like Sony.

Expected to be the most expensive video game of all time, GTA 6 is likely to make that money quickly. Even actors like Kit Harington from Game of Thrones have said that he is excited to play GTA 6. Despite not being a gamer.

Rockstar developers traveled throughout Florida on research trips for GTA 6 to capture the state as realistically as possible in the humor-filled entertainment of Miami and the surrounding areas. CBS News recently did a segment on GTA 6 that detailed the game's depiction of the city.

Elsewhere, the Australian government released an image informing citizens of their rights to request leave when GTA 6 launches next month. Meanwhile, Rockstar has taken over Miami in its big marketing effort leading up to the launch.

But some Miami officials have expressed concern about the studio's influence, with Rockstar promoting GTA 6 on the iconic Goodyear blimp and partnering with the local NBA team the Miami Heat. There's no stopping the train as it rolls into the station with the release of GTA 6 for PS5 and Xbox Series consoles on November 19.
