The short version
IGN and Best Buy are running three weeks of GTA 6 themed giveaways on IGN Rewards, with a new prize every weekday from Monday 26 October to Friday 13 November.

Entry is open to US residents aged 18 and over, excluding Hawaii, Alaska, Florida and New York.
Quick answer
When does the IGN and Best Buy GTA 6 giveaway start?
The first giveaway goes live on IGN Rewards on Monday 26 October, with a PlayStation Portal up for grabs. A new prize follows every weekday until Friday 13 November, and each Friday is a bigger bundle. Entry is limited to US residents aged 18 and over, excluding Hawaii, Alaska, Florida and New York.
IGN is teaming up with Best Buy for three weeks of GTA 6 themed prizes in the run up to launch. IGN announced it on 23 October, promising "thousands of dollars worth of prizes" including TVs, headsets, controllers, soundbars and monitors.
How does the GTA 6 giveaway work?
Monday to Thursday, one new item goes up each day on the IGN Rewards page. You log in, click the sweepstakes, review the terms and press Enter.
Each daily entry also counts towards that week's Friday grand prize. Going by IGN's weekday schedule, those draws fall on 30 October, 6 November and 13 November.
What is in the Friday bundle?
IGN has named one of them, the Do Not Disturb bundle.
| Item | What it is |
|---|---|
| LG 65 inch Class C6 OLED TV | Television |
| LG S60TR | Soundbar and subwoofer set |
| Govee Dreamview TV Light Strips | Backlighting for the TV |
| GTA 6 soundtrack | Vinyl copy |
The other Friday bundles and most daily prizes have not been listed yet. IGN says new giveaways are added as each day comes round.
Who can enter?
Only US residents aged 18 and over, and not those in Hawaii, Alaska, Florida or New York. That leaves out the real state that Leonida, the game's setting, is modelled on. IGN gives no reason for the exclusions, and each person can win only once across the three weeks.
Is there an in person event?
Yes. On 14 November Best Buy's store in Torrance, California, is unveiling a new gaming experience for playing recent releases. IGN will be there filming for its social channels and holding an in person giveaway.
The promotion is IGN and Best Buy's, not Rockstar's, and the studio had not posted about it as of 6.30pm UK time on 25 October. It joins other launch campaigns such as the NBC TV ad, the Miami Beach push and Druski's sponsored episode. GTA 6 itself lands on 19 November, and the editions page lists what each version includes.
