Questions
Will a child account on PS5 be able to start GTA 6?
Not with an age level that matches the child's age: PS5 games are allowed only if their age rating is at or below the child's age. A parent can still allow a single game under Allowed Games.
Can my child buy things in GTA 6 with my card?
Child purchases come from the family manager's wallet and are capped by the monthly spending limit, which starts at 0. Rockstar lists In-Game Purchases in the rating information.
Will my child's Xbox account block GTA 6?
With an age filter below the game's rating, anything above the limit needs an organiser's approval, says Xbox Support. Check the birth date on the child's Microsoft account.
How do I stop purchases on the console?
Profile & system > Settings > Account > Family settings > Manage family members, choose the child, then Privacy & online safety > Xbox privacy > View details & customize > Buy & download, and set Ask a parent to On. No approval is needed when a child spends currency or gift card balance.
