WHAT JUST HAPPENED? The question of how much Grand Theft Auto VI would cost has finally been answered. The base game will be priced at $79.99, while an Ultimate Edition, which offers a slew of extras, will be available for $100.
Rockstar Games confirmed the prices ahead of preorders starting at midnight tonight. The studio also revealed that the game will be a "single-player experience" at launch, so it seems there won't be any new version of GTA Online when the next installment arrives on November 19.
There had been plenty of speculation that GTA VI would be the most expensive title of all time, priced at $100 or more for the base game. While $80 is a lot, Nintendo got there first with the Switch 2 launch title Mario Kart World.
However, the Ultimate Edition of GTA VI does cost $100. Rockstar appears to have gone all out in trying to convince people to opt for this edition, as it's packed with in-game extras including unique vehicles, his and hers revolvers, and more. There are also exclusive stores such as car mod shops, a hair salon, a clothing outlet, and a tattoo parlor.
Those who preorder either edition of the game will also receive the Vintage Vice City Pack downloadable content (DLC). This includes a '55 Vapid Stanier, '80s-era outfits and hair, the ability to add tropical patterns to most guns, and a garage on Ocean Beach.
