The analyst discussed the plans of the owner of Rockstar Take-Two for the launch of great success in a research note distributed this week.
“We believe that the company has plans to sell the game at a previously unheard of price, and we suspect that management can offer consumers an incentive to pay $ 100 or more per unit by rewarding them with a large amount of currency in the game that will be spent on GTA online,” he wrote.
“There is a precedent to integrate an online game experience with a premium game, since Activision did it with Call of Duty Warzone and Call of Duty Mobile Content before the launch of its annual delivery of Call of Duty Premium,” Pachter continued.
Previously it was suggested that other developers and editors expect GTA 6 to have a price of between $ 80 and $ 100, in a movement that also allows more companies to raise the prices of their software.
In August 2020, Take-Two’s NBA 2K21 was announced as the first game of the current generation to have a price of $ 70, and other publishers followed quickly.
Take-Two said last month that Grand Theft Auto 5, which reached $ 1 billion in retail sales faster than any entertainment launch in history after its 2013 launch, has now sent more than 210 million copies.
El martes, Rockstar lanzó una versión actualizada de Grand Theft Auto 5 para PC. The free update introduced a series of previously exclusive functions for next -generation consoles, more modern improvements for PC.
