After a whopping 13-year wait, GTA 6 is almost here, and understandably, most of us are absolutely chomping at the bit to get started. Luckily, some very clever folks have figured out a way to get into the game early: The New Zealand trick.
What is the New Zealand trick? Well, while New Zealand’s time zone is hours ahead of most of the world’s, the game is still set to unlock at midnight (NZDT) on November 19th. By extension, that means any console registered in the New Zealand time zone gets access to the game at that time, which can be almost a full day earlier than most of the globe. And as it turns out, you don’t need to be in New Zealand to have a registered account.
Below, we’ll run through exactly how to exploit GTA 6’s New Zealand trick, the time it will unlock for you if you do, and the catch if you’re playing on PlayStation.
