After more than a decade of waiting, Grand Theft Auto VI is finally on the horizon, with pre-orders opening on June 25 ahead of its highly anticipated release on 19 November.
As if that wasn't exciting enough, PlayStation is currently offering savings of up to £90 on Certified Refurbished PS5 consoles, making now the perfect time to upgrade before release day.
PlayStation Direct is currently offering savings of up to £90 on Certified Refurbished PS5 consoles, making it one of the most affordable ways to get ready for Grand Theft Auto VI.
Every console comes with free standard shipping and a one-year manufacturer's warranty, while PlayStation Plus members can also save 5 per cent on new consoles, including the PS5 Pro, as well as this Certified Refurbished model.
Why not grab an extra saving if you choose to buy Certified refurbished PS5's – exclusively direct from PlayStation - saving up to £90 Vs a new PS5
When Grand Theft Auto V launched in September 2013, the PlayStation 4 hadn't even been released, the latest Apple release was the iPhone 5 (as opposed to the 17), and gaming graphics were a world away from what they are today.
If early trailers are anything to go by, Vice City has never looked more visually intoxicating, making this exactly the sort of blockbuster release that might persuade you to upgrade your console - especially when PlayStation is tempting you to do it for less.
After all, there's nothing more frustrating than waiting years for a game to arrive, only to find yourself sitting through lengthy loading screens or wishing the graphics looked as good as they did in the trailer.

We’ve been teased with everything from dramatic robberies and chaotic police chases to bustling nightlife and stunning coastal scenery. It's the kind of release that will have gamers spending months exploring every corner of Vice City.
That's why it makes sense to play it on the best console you can afford, which could be £90 more affordable if you buy a certified refurbished PS5 directly from PlayStation.
A refurbished digital PS5 is now £429.99, while a refurbished PS5 with disc drive is down to £479.99, from £529.99.
For gamers who really want to maximise every moment of playing GTA IV, there’s also 5 per cent off the PlayStation5 Pro, reduced from £789 to £749.55 for PlayStation Plus members, as well as 5 per cent off Certified Refurbished PlayStation®5 Console for member, too.
For more advanced gameplay the PS5 Pro gives you 2TB of internal super fast SSD storage, Advanced ray tracing for sublime graphics and up to 120fps for super smooth game play
While the PS5 Pro is on the pricey side, you’re getting a huge 2TB SSD, advanced ray tracing and support for gameplay up to 120fps, giving you movie-like cinematography as you steer through the streets.
Adding to the immersive experience, the PS5 Pro also has Tempest 3D AudioTech, which makes your surroundings feel more lifelike. Whether it's the sound of traffic echoing through Vice City's streets, waves crashing onto the beach or a police siren approaching from behind, it helps you shut off from the real world and feel part of the action.
With pre-orders opening on June 25 and anticipation already reaching fever pitch, now could be the ideal time to make sure your gaming setup is ready.
