While Rockstar Games has yet to announce a definite release date for GTA 6, fans are already speculating what they’ll do on the release day. Recently, a Reddit user named coolaspotatos (u/coolaspotatos) shared a post on r/GTA6, expressing their plans for the game’s release.
Sharing their excitement, another Redditor Ryvit (u/Ryvit) commented:
“I’m definitely using at least 1 vacation day at work, maybe even 2 or 3, and hitting the adderall and staying up all night grinding”
It is worth noting that Grand Theft Auto 5 was released at midnight on September 17, 2013. While it is an uncommon practice in the gaming industry, the studio still managed to get thousands of fans queueing outside game outlets to purchase their copies. Many sources also claimed that around half of the American gamers took leave from their work/school to play the 2013 title on its release date.
The GTA 6 release date is expected to shatter all previous records and fans are also gearing up for a grand welcome after the long wait.
One of the veteran players named JBtheExplorer (u/JBtheExplorer) shared their experience with other Rockstar Games’ releases.
Another thing also worth noting is that the Grand Theft Auto fanbase not only consists of teenagers and young adults, but also grown adults.
The Grand Theft Auto series has been running since 1997 with 13 individual title releases so far. Although Rockstar took 12 years for GTA 6, fans are still looking forward to it.
How much Rockstar will charge for GTA 6 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S?
At the time of writing this article, there is no official information about the GTA 6 price. However, there is a strong rumor that Rockstar Games will charge $150 for the game. Keep in mind that this rumor has no solid evidence. If we go by the current standard video game prices, the upcoming game should cost around $70.
After the September 2022 GTA 6 development footage leaks, some fans thought that the studio would push its price bracket. The teenage leaker claimed that the studio had already spent around $2 billion in developing the game. As a result, some fans thought that the retail price of Grand Theft Auto 6 would be increased to cover the expenses.
While the $2 billion figure is yet to be officially verified, Rockstar Games is known for going above and beyond with its game designs. Grand Theft Auto 5 also cost millions of dollars and it initially sold for around $60. After ten years, the current GTA 5 price on PC is around $30.
