This indicated that GTA 6 could cost $90 at launch, causing a wider discussion on video game prices, which already saw a baseline +$10 price hike in this generation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweaktown.com\/news\/112274\/enthusiast-attempts-to-install-second-12v-2x6-connector-on-rtx-5090-is-rewarded-with-a-hole-punched-through-the-pcb\/index.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PopularPopular Now: Enthusiast attempts to install second 12V-2&#215;6 connector on RTX 5090, is rewarded with a hole punched through the PCB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Rockstar hasn&#8217;t confirmed anything, and well-known leaker <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/billbil_kun\/status\/2068750538435686832\/photo\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">billbil-kun says<\/a> that these prices aren&#8217;t real, and instead represent arbitrary figures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Those SKUs are just placeholders because EAN codes (like UPC in US) aren&#8217;t belonging to Take2 traditional games prefixes. So those prices are random ones,&#8221; the leaker said on Twitter, noting they can&#8217;t look into prices more because they&#8217;re currently on vacation.<\/p>\n<p>This is a relief to gamers everywhere who don&#8217;t want to pay $80 or $90 for new games, even titles like Grand Theft Auto 6. It also folds into a conversation that took over the enthusiast gaming sector earlier this year when Epyllion analyst (now Xbox&#8217;s new chief strategy officer) Matthew Ball posited the idea in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matthewball.co\/all\/stateofvideogaming2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">industry report<\/a> that publishers could start charging $100 for games like Grand Theft Auto 6.<\/p>\n<p>Publishers and game developers have been testing price tolerance this generation by raising the MSRP of all gen 9 video games to $69.99, a clear +17% increase over previous software prices. With the Switch 2, Nintendo raised the price ceiling for its software to $79.99, with Mario Kart World Tour being the first official $79.99 video game of the era.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s most interesting about games like Grand Theft Auto is how much money is not only made through full game sales, but via GTA Online.
