GTA 6 Leaks: Is $115 the New Price?
18 May
Summary
- A Dutch retailer leaked GTA 6 for $115, sparking fan concern.
- CEO hinted AAA games may cost $70-$80, not over $100.
- Rockstar faces union busting claims and new Australian age laws.
Grand Theft Auto 6 is anticipated to launch in November 2026, but a recent price leak from a Dutch retailer has caused concern among gamers. The retailer listed the game for approximately $115, sparking worries about a potential price increase for major titles. However, statements from Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick suggest a different outlook.
Zelnick previously indicated that games costing $70 or $80 would not feature interstitial advertising, implying these would be the expected price points for major releases. This has led many to believe that GTA 6 will likely cost around $80, with the leaked $115 price potentially being a placeholder or for a special edition.
Beyond pricing, Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive are facing significant challenges. The company is embroiled in a UK court case concerning alleged union busting activities. Simultaneously, new laws in Australia, such as the Age-Restricted Materials Code, require age verification for online gaming, imposing substantial fines for non-compliance.
The official release date for Grand Theft Auto VI is November 19, 2026.
