Developer: GTA 6 price will determine the future of video game prices
The price of GTA 6 will be the standard that will determine whether other companies will raise the prices of their new games or not, according to one developer.
It seems that all eyes are on GTA 6, not only the gaming community but also the developers and even the giant publishing companies in the industry.
In my opinion Michael Doss From the team behind Baldur's Gate 3. He believes that video game prices should rise from the current level. However, he believes that the industry is waiting until the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, which he believes will raise the price of games from $70 to something new and higher.
This prediction from DOS comes after some reports appeared that the cost of developing GTA 6 could reach a huge number, while some other reports mentioned the number 2 billion dollars that Rockstar set for the production and marketing of the game.
Step on it X platform:
“Almost all games should cost more than the base level because the cost of making them (with inflation, for example) outpaces new pricing trends. But I don't think we'll get there with DLC as far as quality, everyone's waiting for GTA (6) to do that, lol.”
If this information is correct, this number will be the largest in the history of the video game industry and even the entire entertainment industry, but there is no confirmation at the time of writing this report from official or informed sources.
However, this is expected to be reflected in the price of the game when it is released in the markets, as the selling price is expected to be more than $70, and some reports have talked about $120 for the basic version.
Take-Two CEO speaks Strauss Zelnick Earlier, whether GTA 6 would be priced at more than $70, he didn't give a clear yes or no answer, instead talking about the company's goal of offering great value at any given time.
GTA 6 is expected to be released in the last quarter of next year 2025, as it has been confirmed to be released on current generation platforms PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
Meanwhile, the game's fans are waiting for Rockstar to reveal more details, and there are expectations and hopes from this audience that they will get something before the end of this year.
Do you think the price of GTA 6 will be higher than $70?
