Grand Theft Auto 6 ditched traditional discs for its “physical” launch, with Rockstar’s game being sold as a digital code-in-box at retailers beginning this week. However, it appears a packaging choice may have accidentally left the game vulnerable to thieves–assuming they have a flashlight.

buy one from store and redeem. Return and complain, showing this.
Corporate America pays.
They will probably revoke keys marked as ‘stolen’ though, so you won’t get to keep the game
I doubt they’d just revoke keys. They’d probably nuke the account that redeemed it.
You just gotta play it before they do. If it takes you too long, do it a few more times
Hi, I bought this a while ago for my son’s birthday, but when he tried to play it it did not work.
BTW this is something very hard to proof that you did received an already redeemed code.
If your receipt’s purchase date/time is after the date the code was redeemed it seems pretty straightforward to me
Yeah that’s what i was thinking. Even if you show your account as proof you could’ve just redeemed it on an alt-account, so it would be tough. Though i’m not sure how it works with a product like this. For example with hardware purchases, at least where i live, if you send it back because of a defect the burden of proof is on either the retailer or the manufacturer to proof that it is your fault if they don’t want to replace it.
I thought about this, and maybe there is a solution. If you can proof your purchase with the receipt in example, give the game and code back. Then they deactivate the code and you get a new one. This could actually work.
