Many devoted GTA admirers are desperately looking for any news about the sixth installment of the iconic series. It turns out that it's quite easy to come across them on the web, but the vast majority of them are unconfirmed rumors that can only unnecessarily excite the players - among the latest such "revelations" was information about the size and price of the new game from Rockstar Games.

GTA 6 for $150? No, it's "leakers" looking for easy money

Recently, the most popular rumor about GTA 6 that you could come across was the alleged price. According to some, at the time of release the game would cost as much as $150. What's more, this "revelation" was accompanied by the news of the game's possible size, which is expected to be 750 GB, and playthtough time reaching about 400 hours.

  1. Insider-Gaming, run by one of the industry's most trusted insiders - Tom Henderson - has decided to debunk the "leaked" price and size of GTA 6.
  2. According to the editors, the "leakers" sharing similar rumors are looking for cheap sensationalism. They are not based on reliable sources and are not supported by any broader context.
  3. Insider-Gaming claims that the main goal of those who release such news is a cash grab since more clicks ensure a higher income.

There is no denying that 10 years after the appearance of GTA 5 many gamers finally want to know something tangible about the sixth installment (so far, the developers have only confirmed work on the next part).

However, we can suspect that the announcement and the release of the game itself is closer than further away. The best evidence of this is a recent statement by the head of Two-Take Interactive (owner of Rockstar Games), Strauss Zelnick.

The CEO is counting on the company to generate $8 billion in revenue in fiscal year 2025 - such numbers can be provide pretty much by a GTA game.

From Zelnick's words, it seems that the game will probably go on sale between April 2024 and March 2025. Given the advertising campaign, which must take time, the beginning of next year could be a period when loyal GTA fans will receive what they have been waiting for for such a long time.
