It has been speculated for a long time now that "Grand Theft Auto VI" will have a very high price tag. Now, a new leak has surfaced online which further enforces this belief.
There is still no official confirmation from Rockstar Games on when "GTA VI" will be available in the market and what the price will be. But if rumored prices are true, it is already gearing up to be the most expensive game in the industry.
'GTA VI' Price Leak Appears Online
According to the latest report from Brack.ch, a Switzerland-based retailer has accidentally listed "Grand Theft Auto VI" on its website, which briefly opened up pre-orders. The Swiss retailer offered it for 99 francs, which, when converted, is around $110. The listing was eventually taken down.
However, eagle-eyed fans who are awaiting more information behind the game have been able to take a screenshot of the listing. In a Reddit thread, this listing has sparked discussion among fans and players awaiting the highly anticipated game.
While the leak remains unconfirmed, this led fans to speculate that this is the price point to expect from the upcoming sequel game.
Additionally, industry experts and rumors have claimed that because of "GTA VI's" fame, fans will still bite the hefty price tag for its base edition, particularly as it is one of the most popular franchises in the world.
Most Expensive Game Ever? Here Are the GTA VI Expectations
It was previously revealed by Larian Studios' publishing director, Michael Douse (via Notebook Check), that video game pricing may increase from $80 to $100 in the future, and rumors claim that it is Rockstar Games who will start this trend.
It is expected that while fans may complain about it, the popularity alone of "GTA VI" will drive them to buy the title to play and experience it.
Many are in belief that should Rockstar charge a high amount for "GTA VI," other developers and video game publishing companies will follow suit.
That being said, fans are still divided on the rumored price tag for "Grand Theft Auto VI," with some unwilling to pay for the game for such an expensive price. Others, however, have expressed willingness to pay, no matter how expensive it may be.
