The lack of information about GTA 6 price is driving the gaming community insane. Just read the content on reddit or the wider Internet. What little has filtered in is from analyst reports and some mistakes by retailers and these generally, point in one direction, skywards. GTA 6 price is set to skyrocket and will not be anywhere near the $70 mark that most were expecting a few months ago. And it will definitely not be anywhere near the GTA 5 price. Do remember that the last GTA title launched some 13 years ago. Surely, your mom and pop are not paying the same price at the grocery store for your bread and butter as they were a dozen years ago.

So, how will GTA 6 price hike story play out? The price may well be over $100 and may hit the $112, according to a report by Destructoid. Is that fair?

Nothing is fair when it comes to pricing as it depends fully on demand and supply and also, throw in inflation. Since GTA 6 demand is likely to be extremely high, Take-Two Interactive can easily milk it for all its worth. And considering it has spent so many man-years in developing it, the development costs will be high and ergo, GTA 6 price hike inevitable. And the likelihood of the gaming community paying up are great too, so far.

Destructoid said that when Swiss retailer Brack website listed its GTA 6 pre-order page mistakenly, perhaps in preparation for the eventual launch, the listed price was 99 Swiss francs, which, as of March 11, converts to 111.88 today. We can round it off to $112.

What makes it certain is that, Destructoid avers that the store actually reacted to customer queries and said the price was correct. It indicated that this was not a random pre-order page, but the real thing.

Does that mean the GTA 6 price is officially that of Rockstar? Not at all, stores may list the amount they have in mind on their own and it may be lower or higher than this.

As GTA 6 launch draws near, more and more retailers may do the same.

And then there is the big matter of taxes. each country has a separate import tax structure and the GTA 6 price will have to include the same as per every country.

So, whatever the GTA 6 price hike comes to, near $100-mark or over the $110-mark, you better start saving more than what you budgeted for.
