🚨 GTA 6 PRICE EXPOSED! 💥 “OFFICIAL” $70 BASE? Or Henderson’s $80 NIGHTMARE?! Rockstar’s 2026 BOMBSHELL Just LEAKED – Delays, Editions, & Wallet KILLERS! 😤
Jason & Lucia’s Vice City CHAOS demands YOUR CASH! Ex-Rockstar SPILLS: Standard $70, Deluxe $99+… But TWIST in final mins CRUSHES hopes! 🔥
They’ll SCRUB this FAST – DEVOUR BEFORE GONE!
A YouTube video titled “GTA 6 Official Price Revealed Finally (2026)” from channel Capix Gaming has drawn nearly 5,000 views since its January 2 upload, falsely teasing an “official” price drop while unpacking insider rumors that pit a $70 standard edition against recent $80 predictions – fueling frenzied debates just months from Rockstar Games’ targeted November release. The two-and-a-half-minute clip, narrated over stock trailer footage, cites former Rockstar animator Mike York claiming the base game stays at the AAA standard $70 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, with premium editions hitting $99-plus for GTA Online perks like cash, properties, and vehicles. No actual reveal from Rockstar – just speculation amid ballooning development costs and delay fallout.
Capix Gaming, a GTA-focused outlet with 7,000 subscribers run by @MagnumNiki on X, mirrors its pattern of hype videos on leaks like Days Gone 2 and Crysis 4. Here, it nods to GTA 6’s rocky road: announced December 2023, delayed from fall 2025 to May 26, 2026, then November 19 after Rockstar cited “polish” needs. York, via esports insider chats, dismisses $100 base fears as “greedy,” forecasting $3 billion first-week sales dwarfing GTA V’s records – thanks to volume over markup, plus Online microtransactions.
This clashes with Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson, who on a recent podcast predicted an $80 base – aping Nintendo’s Switch 2 strategy – while insisting no further slips from November 19, with PC in fall 2027. Henderson: Rockstar’s “content complete,” just refining. X erupts: @gtasix_’s “$80?” poll hit 4,400 likes, 500+ replies split between “Worth it” and “Pirate life.” @ViceCityGTAVI’s recap: 4,400 likes, fans tagging “No delays!”
Pricing precedent looms large. GTA V launched at $60 (2013 dollars, ~$80 adjusted), sold 215 million copies, grossed $8.6 billion – franchise total 425 million. Shark Cards alone poured billions post-launch. GTA 6’s rumored $1-2 billion budget – full production since 2020 – demands recoup: DFC Intelligence eyes $3.2 billion year-one revenue. Analysts like Wedbush’s Michael Pachter floated $100 early, but York counters: Online’s the cash cow.
Delays stung: May announcement apologized for “quality” push; November’s blamed extra time. Insiders peg extra costs at $60 million per slip. Layoffs hit Rockstar amid crunch accusations; unions eyed. Yet hype endures: Trailer 1’s 200 million views; Trailer 2 teased Jason/Lucia’s Bonnie-and-Clyde saga in fictional Leonida (Florida analog), Vice City redux with swamps, beaches, neon sprawl.
Expectations skyrocket: Vast map dwarfing V’s, dual-protag switching, advanced police AI, dynamic crowds, wildlife, heists evolved. Capix speculates 2026 trailers: gunplay, missions, sandbox. PS5 Pro bundles loom – Sony’s marketing edge? Xbox preloads teased.
Take-Two’s February 3 earnings could spill: Q3 FY2026 call post-market. Street Fighter 6, Civ VII updates dominate now, but GTA shadows all. X rages: @NotiPlay_ (8,700 likes): Henderson’s $80/€90 confirmed? Turkish fans fret 4,000+ TL (~$120).
Skeptics abound: @pulpculture323 debunks $80 as edition mix-up. Memes flood: “$100 base? GTA Online pays rent.” Rockstar mum – site lists no preorders, prices blank.
In Vice City’s underbelly, prices stir more heat than chases. $70 keeps masses in; $80 tests loyalty. With GTA V’s blueprint – launch big, Online eternal – VI eyes history. As @RockpanGamers polls: “PC 2027?” Fans ride hype, wallets clenched. Official word? Sooner than a five-star bust.
