Our prompt: written by RealAgentCases, not a real user's case Go to the prompt ↓

Facts in this answer can change. The prompt asks the AI to look up current information. We re-test it by Nov 17, 2026 at the latest. We'll rewrite or retire it by Nov 17, 2026.

Why this works & tips

Why this works

  • It works back from the removal date and your real schedule, and checks that the sessions fit before the deadline.
  • It keeps spoilers to mission names and tells you which side content to keep or skip.

Tips

  • PlayStation's own PS5 notice says GTA V leaves PS Plus Extra and Premium on Nov 17, 2026 (Push Square, GTA BOOM, Oct 13–15). If the AI calls it unverified, use that date.
  • Tested with ChatGPT and Gemini with web search on. Free Gemini sometimes labels third-party or Reddit sources as 'Official', so open the links before relying on anything it calls official.

Prompt

Written by us, last tested Oct 19, 2026. The words in [BRACKETS] are filled in by the form below, with our tested examples already in.

I want to finish GTA V Story Mode before it leaves my PlayStation Plus catalog.
- Where I am: [WHERE I AM]
- Sessions per week and length: [SESSIONS]
- Must-do side content: [SIDE CONTENT]
- Platform: [PLATFORM]
If I left a field at its default, use the default.
Search the web for current information before you answer, and don't rely on memory, since versions, patches and store listings change. If you can't browse the web, say so in your first line and mark anything you can't verify as "unverified" instead of guessing. Label each fact official (Rockstar Support, Rockstar Newswire or the store listing), community-tested (name the wiki, guide or thread) or estimate (your own judgment), and say the date you checked.
First, confirm the date GTA V leaves PS Plus Extra and Premium, from PlayStation if you can, and whether my save and progress stay if I buy the game later.
Then build a session-by-session plan that finishes the main story before that date, naming the mission I should reach by the end of each session and using estimated times (labeled estimates, with the source for the overall story length). Check that the sessions fit before the removal date; if they don't, say so and how many extra hours a week I'd need.
Mark which side activities to keep and which to skip, and give one spoiler-free tip per session.
Spoiler rule: use mission names only; don't mention endings, choices, deaths or which characters appear later.

ChatGPT, model not shown (free logged-out guest, web search on)
What we got
I'll use your defaults: not started, 4 sessions per week × 2 hours, heists and stock market, PS5. / Planned sessions: 15 / Bottom line: plan around 15 two-hour sessions, protect your save, and prioritize the main story over stock-market optimization.
Result
Pass with notes
Notes
15-session plan with a fit check and spoiler-free mission names; it missed PlayStation's own Nov 17, 2026 removal notice and called the date unverified, though its plan would still finish around Nov 8

AI and model
Gemini, Flash-Lite (free logged-out guest)
What we got
Removal Date: November 17, 2026 (Source: Official PlayStation console notification / Store listing, checked October 19, 2026). / Feasibility Check: At your default pace of 32 hours, you will fall slightly short of finishing a full completionist run by November 17. To finish safely before removal, you will need about 2 to 3 extra hours per week
Result
Pass with notes
Notes
correct Nov 17 date and the fit check works; then lays out 16 sessions ending before Nov 17 without the extra hours, some loose mission order, an uncited claim about trophies
