Hey! So, I stumbled across this whole thing about GTA 6. You know that game everyone’s hyped about? Well, guess what, the big shots over at Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two, are playing all coy about what it’ll cost. I read this thing in Variety where Strauss Zelnick, the Take-Two CEO, was being all cryptic. Seriously, it’s like trying to guess what’s inside a Christmas present.
He didn’t spill any numbers. Not a single one. Just danced around saying something like, “We want to give more than what we take.” Honestly, it reminded me of that time I was trying to explain why I ate the last slice of cake. Anyway, he dropped this bombshell on Thursday, right before chatting about how much cash they’re raking in. Oh, and check this out—GTA 5 hit a crazy 215 million sales. Can you even imagine that many games? And, like, the overall series? Almost 455 million. That’s wild!
So, let’s get back to Zelnick—he’s super aware of all the gossip about game prices. People chatting about how GTA 6 might be as much as 80 or even a hundred bucks. I mean, that’s more than my last grocery run! But Zelnick’s kinda like, “Eh, can’t say, might launch high and then who knows?” Special editions and all that jazz. I get it, start high and maybe drop prices later. Makes sense I guess, but no promises.
Oh, and trailers! Rockstar tossed out two of these bad boys. The first trailer? Boom—93 million views in a day. Then they flung out another one, and oh boy, it hit 475 million. Mind-blowing, right? People are practically eating this up. Anyway, mark your calendars or apps or whatever—GTA 6 is hitting PS5 and Xbox Series X on May 26, 2026. Seems forever away, huh? But hey, time flies when you’re busy binge-watching cat videos or whatever it is we do these days.
