It is reported that Rockstar Games' highly anticipated game Grand Theft Auto 6 may have a price tag as high as $150. If you remember, it was reported in recent months that the studio allocated a budget of 2 billion dollars to the game and that GTA 6 will be the most expensive entertainment product of all time.

Conversations between developers were leaked online, revealing that GTA 6 has been in development since 2014 and a lot of development money has been spent so far. Rockstar worked very diligently to remove these leaks from the internet and took legal action against the person who made the leak. This reaction of the company suggests that there may be some truth in the leaked information.

High price to compensate budget investment

It is speculated that Rockstar Games is planning to price the game at $150 to compensate for its huge budget investment. This is no surprise, considering the development costs. But that certainly doesn't make such a high price tag acceptable.

At this point, we remember the statements of GTA publisher Take-Two's boss, Strauss Zelnick, that "$70 per game is normal" and "development is getting expensive." Apparently, he now accepts a price of $150 per game as normal.

If the pricing strategy in question becomes reality, it is clear that it will cause a negative reaction among players. Rockstar Games should be prepared for harsh criticism from players, especially those who are very upset about the recent price increases in other games.
Let's come to Turkey... The mentioned 150 dollars currently corresponds to around 4,000 TL. However, due to unstable exchange rates and increased inflation, it is certain that the price of the game in our country will be even higher. Of course, as we mentioned before, if this pricing is implemented.
