Why $100 for GTA 6 Feels Like a Slap to Gamers 💀
Here’s a quick breakdown:
💸 GTA Online Is the Real Moneymaker – Rockstar earns the bulk of its profits from microtransactions in GTA Online. Pricing the base game at $100 could limit how many players join the ecosystem.
🎮 The GTA 5 Player Base Is Massive – With millions still active in GTA 5, asking $100 for GTA 6 creates a high switching cost, especially during a time when wallets are tight.
🧠 Smarter Move: Premium Editions – A standard edition priced lower (e.g. $70–$80) with optional deluxe tiers lets Rockstar monetize superfans without alienating average players.
