As rumors regarding Grand Theft Auto 6's potential price swirl, developers believe it could set a new standard across the industry. While Rockstar has yet to address the rampant speculation that it intends to sell GTA 6 above the standard $70 price point that's most often used for AAA releases, fans are concerned that, due to its sheer scale, the game could end up retailing for over $100. That would be a massive increase but the argument is that the development cost of GTA 6 may justify such an enormous price tag.
Over on X (formerly Twitter), Michael Douse, the Director of Publishing for Baldur's Gate 3, notes that he believes Rockstar could change the current pricing trend with Grand Theft Auto 6.
Douse notes that all games should cost more for consumers since it's now more expensive to make them than ever, so taking this kind of proportional pricing model into account, GTA 6 should theoretically cost more than $70 due to its sheer size and depth. The developer concludes that the industry is simply waiting on Rockstar to implement such a strategy before more studios start using the same plan.
Here is why GTA 6 may end...
