How Much Is GTA 6 Gonna Cost?
Grand Theft Auto is one of the most renowned open-world gaming series, with a large number of gamers still enjoying GTA 4 and 5. Keeping in mind all the continued interest shown towards this gaming series, it is quite rational to believe anything GTA-related may spread like wildfire. But are the recent rumours about Grand Theft Auto 6 price based on any truth?
With the recent trailer launch of Grand Theft Auto 6, the gamers community has shown keen interest in what this epic game may introduce. As people are ready to jump into any news about GTA 6, there have been many rumours and speculations about the price of the new Grand Theft Auto 6.
A recent rumour speculates that the cost of GTA 6 may be as high as $150. This news has had the gamer enthusiasts in panic and people are thinking if this is legitimate or just another speculation. Let’s get into the facts before we give a statement about the new GTA 6 price.
GTA 5 Release Cost
To get an estimate of how expensive can GTA 6 be, we can look back to the launching price of GTA 5. GTA 5 was originally released on October 1, 2013, with a total of three versions: the base GTA 5, GTA 5 Special Edition, and the GTA 5 Collectors Edition. The prices of all three were $59.99, $79.99, and $149.99, respectively. Now, considering the recent surge in prices in the gaming industry, we can speculate the special edition of the game to be priced at around $150 or even more.
It is important to know that these collector’s editions come with physical items which make up for the major portion of the price. The actual game can itself be bought for under $100.
Recent Rockstar Games Launches
We can get an even better understanding of the possible game pricing with the prices of the recently released games by Rockstar Games. Red Dead Redemption 2, was originally launched in 2018 and came with three editions with the standard edition priced at $59.99 at the time.
To add to the facts, there has been a recent trend to provide early access to games by upgrading to a premium edition, which can further increase the price of the game.
The Baseline
The wait for any official news regarding the Grand Theft Auto 6 launch price is going to be a long one as Rockstar Games has not even launched the name of the game yet.
Still, to sum all of this up, the recent leaks about GTA 6 pricing are nothing more than just speculations until Rockstar Games themselves confirm the price. However, keeping in mind the recent pricing trend we can expect that the baseline price for GTA 6 on Xbox and PS5 will be nothing less than $69.99 and the collector’s edition may even set a new high in the open-world gaming market.
In the end, it’s all up to Rockstar and Take-Two to decide the final price of the game.
