Rockstar doesn’t care how much you want GTA 6: it will be released when it’s perfect

We are seeking perfection, and when we feel we have creatively optimized it, that will be the moment to launch it.

Don’t think that Rockstar hasn’t noticed that you can’t wait to play and know more about ‘GTA 6‘, but that’s not going to make them release it sooner. Unlike the majority of the industry, they have thought that if you have waited eleven years, you can wait a couple more months without any problem to enjoy a fully finished game. Or, in other words, it will be released when it’s released. And that’s it. No pressure.

Hey now, you’re a Rockstar

After the success of ‘GTA 5’ and ‘Red Dead Redemption 2‘, they know perfectly well that all eyes are on them and that they will be the game to beat when it finally comes out. “We are seeking perfection, and when we feel that we have creatively optimized it, that will be the moment to launch it was the explanation they gave to an investor who asked when and how they decided to release their bombs.

Obviously, investors want success and money as soon as possible, but in a time of crunch and games released before their time (like that Spider-man 2 that is missing at least a quarter of the story…) they are perfectly aware of what they are doing: “There is an inherent tension, potentially, between releasing something to the market and creating perfection, but this company falls on the side of perfection”. Perfection, huh. Quite something.

And yes, indeed, they know you’re eager to get your hands on this sixth installment. “We feel that the anticipation is much greater – much, much greater. But the 195 million units sold of GTA 5 is not something to sleep on”. You don’t need to be a great analyst either: the trailer has already been seen by 174 million people (note: 21 million less than those who bought the previous installment) and the overwhelming majority of the comments have been positive.

On the other hand, if the game doesn’t interest you, I’m sorry for the two years ahead of you, because they are going to be a spectacular drag with every new detail that is known. After all, 195 million people are eagerly awaiting it.

Has Rockstar lost their mind with the price of GTA 6?

Currently, it is undeniable that the most anticipated video game worldwide is Grand Theft Auto VI. The next title from Rockstar was officially announced two months ago with an impressive trailer, reaching millions of views in just one day and triggering a huge hype on social media (a demonstration of the immense influence of this saga).

However, Rockstar continues to maintain its secrecy regarding the game’s information, and for now, we only know a few details, such as the fact that we will control a pair of thieves inspired by the classic Bonnie and Clyde, that we will return to the iconic Vice City, and that it will be released (unless stated otherwise) in 2025.

Okay, it’s understandable that Rockstar didn’t want to reveal more, in order to dose the information throughout this year, but at least do we know at what price it will be released, right? Well… no. Nothing. While it would be logical to think that GTA VI will be sold for 70-80 dollars (same amount in euros), a strong rumor that has been echoed by Gamerant would suggest that GTA 6 will cost a whopping 150 dollars. Yes, you read that right.

This rumor would claim that the development of this latest Grand Theft Auto has been so expensive that Rockstar would be willing to double the average cost of a launch video game in order to make their title profitable (knowing that the game will end up selling like hotcakes one way or another). Is the rumor true? Start saving just in case.
