Here’s a quick estimation of possible GTA 6 prices that fans can expect in 2025:

1) GTA 6 price: Base version (PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X/S)

Grand Theft Auto 6 is certainly one of the most ambitious projects of Rockstar Games of modern times. It is rumored to be in development for nearly a decade, and the developers are still seemingly working on it. If we consider the normal release practices followed by other game developers in 2024, the Grand Theft Auto 6 price should not be more than $70 in the US.

2) GTA 6 price: Collector’s Edition (PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X/S)

The collector editions of games usually come with physical and digital items that one doesn’t get with the standard version. We assume that the collector’s edition price of Grand Theft Auto 6 would be around $100-$120 based on the rumored $1-2 billion development cost of the game:

3) GTA 6 pre order price:

The price of pre-ordering the game would depend on the different versions of the game Rockstar would release. Nowadays, many developers release the game with Base, Premium, or Digital Deluxe Editions, each with a different price tag. However, the base version shouldn’t cost more than $70 to pre order as per our estimations.

PS4, PC, and Xbox One versions:

Players should note that no PS4, PC, or Xbox One version has been announced yet, suggesting that the title will skip last-gen consoles by being exclusive to current and next-gen gaming platforms only. However, a PC port is expected to be released sometime between 2026-2027.

When can you expect Rockstar Games to officially reveal GTA 6 price?

As reported by Eurogamer on August 10, 2024, Take-Two Interactive's CEO Strauss Zelnick doesn't seem interested in putting the game on a subscription service like Xbox Game Pass.

Based on recent trends, the official GTA 6 prices will likely be revealed 3-4 months before the release date. So far, the release window is set to be fall 2025, so fans can expect the revelation to be around mid-summer of next year, June-August. Keep in mind the developers haven’t confirmed this by the time of writing.

The game is set to release on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and other un-confirmed entertainment platforms. Sadly, no PC version has been confirmed yet; however, it is expected to be released a year or two after the console release. This could mean PC players might have to wait till 2026 or 2027 to be able to play the next title in the long-running series.
