GTA 6 $100 Price Tag Debunked in New Leak: Standard Edition Set at £70
Reliable insider Millie A has quashed fears of a $100+ base price for Grand Theft Auto VI, revealing a consumer-friendly £69.99 standard edition in a comprehensive new leak. The report – sourced from Reddit – outlines a tiered pricing model with online-focused premiums, while hinting at a possible delay from May to September 2026 for Rockstar’s blockbuster.
Leaked Pricing Tiers
According to Millie A’s intel on Rockstar’s marketing plans:
- Standard Edition: £69.99 (~$89 USD)
Base game + standard GTA Online access - Deluxe Edition: £89.99 (~$115 USD)
Adds early access to GTA Online - Premium Edition: £109.99 (~$140 USD)
Grants first access to GTA Online + unconfirmed bonuses
A PS5 hardware bundle was also referenced, though details remain scarce.
Key Takeaways
- Base Price Relief: Standard edition aligns with AAA norms (e.g., Spider-Man 2, Starfield)
- Online Focus: Higher tiers prioritize multiplayer advantages over story DLC
- Delay Contingency: “Internal discussions” may push launch to September 2026 for polish
- Regional Fairness: UK pricing mirrors U.S. dollar conversions (no premium markup)
Why This Leak Matters
- Market Stability: Avoids backlash from Call of Duty’s $80 base price experiment
- Player Choice: Story-focused gamers can skip online premiums
- Strategic Flexibility: September delay would target holiday 2026 sales peak
Industry analysts note the £110 Premium Edition could set a new benchmark for “paywalled multiplayer access” if proven true.

Community Response & Caveats
While fans welcomed the reasonable standard price, skepticism surfaced:
“£110 for ‘first access’? Sounds like a server stress test paid by players.”
“If Online launches weeks later anyway, why pay extra?”
Millie A’s credibility (accurate past leaks) lends weight, but Rockstar’s silence means all details remain unconfirmed. Official pricing will likely debut with pre-orders in late 2025.
