A boxed PS5 copy turns up early

On 7 November, Kotaku reported on a photo of a sealed PS5 copy of GTA VI, posted by someone said to work at a German retailer. The post and the account were deleted soon after. The box matches what Rockstar announced: it holds a download code instead of a disc, so installing needs an internet connection. An early box does not mean early play. The game unlocks on 19 November, and boxed copies reach stores on 12 November.
