We still have no official information on the price of GTA 6. However, game industry analysts speculate that the game may be the most expensive in history. One of the experts responsible for this analysis is Matthew BallCEO of a consulting firm specializing in video games.
In a report on the game market in 2025, he projected that GTA 6 It can arrive in stores costing between $ 80 and $ 100 (approximately $ 480 and $ 600). The analyst states that many producers are waiting for a record price so that they can also charge more for their games “after decades of deflation.”
The expert argues that, despite the high amounts charged today, prices are below inflation. So if the Rockstar maintain current base prices, proportionally this would be the Gta cheaper in history. It is noteworthy that the report was published before the postponement of the game, which can interfere with this evaluation.
