|---|

According to the available preorder information, players who purchase the Ultimate Edition receive several exclusive cosmetic weapon bonuses.
These include:
- Hawk and Little Morgan Rifles
- Detailed engraving for Jason’s Girardi ES9 pistol
- Detailed engraving for Lucia’s Klose K17 pistol
These bonuses focus on visual customization rather than introducing entirely new weapon classes, allowing players to personalize certain firearms while maintaining the existing gameplay balance.
Final Words
The confirmed GTA VI weapons already showcase a diverse arsenal, covering everything from pistols and assault rifles to heavy weapons and melee options. Since Rockstar Games has only revealed part of the lineup, many more weapons are likely to be announced before launch.
