AssumingGTA 6meets its fall 2025 release window, it will mark a whopping 12 years between entries in the extremely popular franchise.
The sheer amount of timeGrand Theft Autofans have had to wait for a new entry in the series has propelledGTA 6hype to dizzying heights. Reports have indicated that various game publishers are ready todelay their games to avoid theGTA 6release date, and the game is likely to break records when it finally does hit the market. However, ifGTA 6is as expensive as some have predicted, that might throw a wrench in things for some players.
WithMario Kart Worldretailing for $90 physicallyand $80 digitally, there have been rumblings that Rockstar Games is going to priceGrand Theft Auto 6for $100 at launch. Nothing official has been said about theGTA 6price at the time of this writing, but Swedish retailer BrackCH posted a listing forGTA 6that reveals a price point for the game that translates to roughly $115 USD.

GTA 6 Retail Listing
IfGrand Theft Auto 6does cost $100 at launch, it is unlikely to havethatmuch of an impact on the game’s sales. As previously mentioned,GTA 6hype is through the roof, and the game is poised to be one of the biggest video game releases of all time. IfGTA 6releases in fall 2025 as planned, there’s pretty much no doubt that it will be the best-selling game of the year, even though it is only releasing for PS5 and Xbox Series X. $100 may price out some fans, but it’s safe to say that the vast majority of individuals will buyGTA 6evenifit’s released at such a high price.
Video game prices are more chaotic than usual right now. The Nintendo Switch 2 game prices have thrown things out of whack, and theTrump tariffsalso have the potential to make games more expensive. With these factors in mind, it wouldn’t be surprising ifGrand Theft Auto 6was released with a $100 price tag, but hopefully the game launches at the normal $70 price as most other big budget games nowadays.
