Giveaway rules
Who runs this
The launch giveaway is run and paid for entirely by us, the team behind GTA 6 Companion and the VI Companion app (gta6companion.app). Anything on this page: contact@elmlabs.dev.
It is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with Apple, Rockstar Games, Take-Two Interactive, Sony or Microsoft. Apple is not involved in any way.
Who can enter
You must be 18 or over, or the age of majority where you live if that is higher. The app and the waitlist themselves are 16+; the giveaway is stricter.
It runs only where local law allows and is void where it does not. We may exclude a territory, or withdraw the promotion in one, at any time.
One person, one account. Anyone who works on this project, and their immediate family, cannot enter.
How to enter — no purchase, ever
Entry is free. Create an account in the app or on the website, then share the invite link on your member card. Everyone who joins through it counts for you.
A referral counts once that person has created an account and signed in, with an email address that is their own and has not been used before. The first invite link an account uses is the one that counts — a later one changes nothing.
No purchase is necessary and nothing on sale improves anyone's chances. The Supporter purchase removes advertising and has no effect on entry, standing or odds.
The player draw
Bring 5 people and you are in the draw. Bring 10 and you hold two entries instead of one.
Four copies of the game go out. One goes to whoever brought the most people. The other three are drawn at random from everyone who qualified, with double-entry members counted twice.
Odds depend on how many people qualify, which nobody can know until entries close.
The creator promotion
Creators apply separately, from the app or the website, and every application is read. Applications close on 29 October 2026.
Every approved creator gets a verified profile and lifetime access to future premium features. Ten are featured for a month at launch, on the website and in the app.
The three approved creators who bring the most people each receive a copy of the game to give away to their own audience. We buy it; the creator runs that giveaway on their own channel, under their own rules, and is responsible for it.
Dates
Entries close at 23:59 UTC on 18 November 2026, the day before the game's release.
Winners are drawn within seven days of that and announced during launch week, November 2026.
We write to the email address on the winner's account. If there is no reply within 14 days, that prize is drawn again.
The prize
One copy of the game per winner — the Ultimate Edition where it is sold — on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S or PC, whichever the winner chooses.
We buy it in the winner's own region so it works on their account. Where an edition or a platform cannot be delivered there, we substitute one of equivalent value. There is no cash alternative and prizes cannot be transferred.
Any tax that applies to a prize is the winner's responsibility.
Entries we cannot accept
Duplicate or automated sign-ups, disposable addresses, referring yourself, and anything else built to inflate a count.
Every winner is verified before anything is sent. Where verification fails, the entry is disqualified and the prize goes to the next name drawn.
Winners and your data
We may publish a winner's first name or public handle and their country. Nothing else.
Entry data is used only to run this promotion and is handled as described in our privacy policy.
Changes
We may amend these rules or withdraw the promotion where the law requires it or where it cannot be run as described. The effective date above always reflects the current version, and a material change is announced on this page and in the app.
