- Industry analyst claims game developers hope GTA 6 price will be at least $80.
- This would allow other games to have increased price tags as well.
- A $70 GTA 6 would be the cheapest game in the series accounting for inflation.
GTA 6 will certainly be one of the most important launches ever in the industry. With the release expected anywhere between fall 2025 and next year, a new report has emerged claiming that many game developers in the industry hope GTA 6 will cost $80 to $100.
Why it matters: Considering the influence of the GTA franchise, if it debuts a new price tag, the industry is expected to follow suit, and we could see other companies increasing the price tags of their AAA titles.
According to a presentation by industry analyst, Matthew Ball, many studios and developers are hoping that GTA 6 will be priced at $80 if not $100. This will help others to increase their prices to tackle the growing budgets.
The report further states that if GTA 6 launches at $70, it will be the cheapest game in the franchise ever, if we account for inflation. For context, in today’s terms, the average price of older GTA games comes out at an average of $91.
However, some of the sales and playtime of GTA 6 will be cut off as it is a console-exclusive launch at first. Nonetheless, this would allow the industry to adopt a new normal price tag, that could be higher than ever before.
Based on what we’ve seen, fans are completely ready to spill their cash on GTA 6, even if it costs more than $70, but it’ll be really interesting to see what Rockstar decides the final price will be.
Do you guys think GTA 6 will cost $80 or $100? Will you buy it at this price tag? Let us know your opinions in the comments or join the discussion at the official Tech4Gamers Forum.
