Can you play GTA 6 offline?

Yes. The PlayStation Store lists GTA 6 as Offline play enabled and 1 player, and Sony describes it as a single-player experience. You still need the internet to buy and download it, and on your PS5 or PS5 Pro, Console Sharing and Offline Play has to be on for that console.

Do you need PS Plus to play GTA 6?

Neither Sony's GTA VI page nor the PlayStation Store listing names PlayStation Plus as a requirement, as of November 12, 2026. The listing's small print says online features need an account for PlayStation. The month of GTA+ that comes with a digital pre-order is a separate Rockstar subscription.

Confirmed

A digital pre-order on PlayStation Store before November 20, 2026 includes one month of GTA+. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel it.
