First off is the Special Edition, clocking in at $80, you’ll receive…

And then there’s the big boy Collectors Edition, which is a whopping $150. For that price, you’ll get everything included in the Special Edition as well as…
- Grand Theft Auto V Security Deposit Bag with Logo Key
Inspired by the heists in Grand Theft Auto V, this custom 10.75” x 8.5” money bag features a pop-up style lock and laser cut logo key to secure important items. The reverse side features a pressed Rockstar Games logo on the security mount with a framed ID window. - Grand Theft Auto V New Era 9FIFTY™ Snapback Cap
This exclusive New Era 9FIFTY™ cap features an embroidered Los Santos logo on the front, a stitched, black Rockstar Games logo on the wearer’s left side, a Grand Theft Auto ‘V’ logo applique on the opposite side, and snapback closure for an adjustable fit. - Custom Characters for Grand Theft Auto Online
Get classic Grand Theft Auto characters to use within the Grand Theft Auto Online Character Creation System. - Unique Vehicles and Garage Property
Players will instantly receive a garage to store custom vehicles. In single player, the garage will be stocked with the 1930’s style Hotknife hotrod and the CarbonRS sports bike. In Grand Theft Auto Online, players will get the high-end Khamelion electric car.
And of course, everyone who preorders the game will receive access to… a special blimp! Yay blimps!
While I can’t say I’m much a fan of snapbacks, I will say that I would love everything else in that package (wink wink). The only drawback I can see with spending $150 on a single game this late in the console cycle is the fact that it isn’t on the next generation consoles. Hopefully we’ll see this coming to the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 as well.
