Okay, let’s dive in. So, sprawling tales of chaos and crime in a digital wonderland—who would’ve thought we’d be so hyped for GTA 6, right? The suits at Rockstar and Take-Two, they’ve got this fancy game cooking, but they’re keeping hush-hush about the price tag. Go figure. Strauss Zelnick, the big cheese at Take-Two, chatted with Variety and said something like, “We want you to get your money’s worth.” I mean, duh, but also, nice save.
Now, he didn’t spill the beans on the actual price. Nope, just told us to hang tight. GTA 5, though? It’s still a giant, smashing its way past the 215 million units mark. That’s like, a bajillion copies. How many people are even on this planet? Anyway—right, the whole franchise is cruising close to 455 million sales. Mind-boggling, right?
So, about this whole $80 or $100 game price chatter—Zelnick sorta danced around it. Clever guy. But hey, can you blame him? Nine months is ages away. Sounds like they might go with that annoyingly common “launch it high, drop it later” strategy. Remember when games didn’t cost an arm and a leg? Yeah, me neither.
And those GTA 6 trailers? Blew up like popcorn in a microwave! First one snagged 93 million eyeballs in a day. Then, BOOM, the next hit 475 million. What are they sprinkling in these trailers anyway?
Mark your calendars for May 26, 2026, if you haven’t already scribbled it on the bathroom mirror in lipstick or whatever. PS5 and Xbox Series X gamers, you’re in for a ride. Or so they say. Here’s hoping it’s worth every penny—or whatever currency you’re shelling out.
