The highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 is already making waves, not only for its gameplay or graphics, but for a possible surprise price tag. A pre-order listing on Swiss retailer Brack, temporarily revealed the game up for pre-order at 99 Swiss Francs, or approximately $112 USD. Although the listing has since been removed, it has reopened debate among fans as to how much Rockstar's next big hit might cost.
GTA 6 price speculation intensifies after retail listing surfaces
The recently taken-down listing was on Brack's site and indicated GTA 6 could be pre-ordered at a premium. While the page is no longer active, screenshots that circulated online have fueled increasing speculation that Rockstar Games will be setting a new pricing benchmark for AAA titles. The retailer indicated that the listed price represented actual pricing, according to Destructoid.
To date, Rockstar and parent company Take-Two Interactive have not officially announced any pricing information for GTA 6. That said, this isn't the first time rumors have been floating around about a potential $100+ price tag. Considering the size of the game and years of development, many fans feel that a higher price could be warranted, but others fear this could establish an expensive precedent for future games.
Fans question fairness as anticipation grows
The leaked price has ignited a split among the gaming community. Some find that GTA 6, with its anticipated gargantuan open world, state-of-the-art graphics, and rich content, might be justified in its premium price. The first trailer set viewing records alone, and hype for the game is through the roof. However, most gamers are not keen on committing to an upgrade over the standard $70 pricing benchmark for most new-gen titles.
There's also speculation that the listing was perhaps just a placeholder or a tactical move by the retailer to take advantage of the hype. Without confirmation, it's impossible to know if the $112 price point will stick.
While the listing has added more excitement and concern around GTA 6, the official price remains unknown. Until Rockstar makes a statement, fans will have to wait and see whether the next installment of the legendary franchise will come with a premium price to match its massive expectations.
