Some international physical copies of GTA VI can allegedly be redeemed without opening the box

Some international physical copies of the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI game can allegedly be redeemed without opening the box, according to reports. A few photos show download codes for the game being visible through the side of the box when illuminated by a strong flashlight. The ResetEra post suggests this issue may be limited to international copies, while US versions might have a backing that conceals the code.

If true, players could potentially purchase a game that's already been redeemed, which could pose a serious problem for buyers. Take-Two and Rockstar Games have not commented on the reports.
