For PS5 users, you’ll need to set up a new PSN account with the country set in New Zealand, after it’s set up you’ll have to get the online standalone edition.
If you’re on Xbox, all you have to do is change your console region to New Zealand. You don’t have to do anything else.

On Xbox Series X / S the procedure is pretty simple: just set the system region to New Zealand to be able to start the game immediately. And after having obtained it, we await the release of the title also on our territory (the title is unlocked at midnight on Tuesday 15 March) to reset the region to Italy again.
Different and more complex speech instead of on PS5: you have to create a new account with a New Zealand address, and then immediately after buying the game with this profile. The title would therefore be associated with the account with which you download it and its region, so if you have already booked it with your console and main account you will necessarily have to wait until midnight on Tuesday.
Staying on the Sony theme, here are the advantages of DualSense on GTA 5 for PS5. Finally, remember what is the official price of GTA 5 for PS5 and Xbox Series X / S if you have not booked it in the past few weeks.
