Will Donald Trump's tariff impact the pricing of GTA 6?
The GTA 6 price may remain unaffected, as per reports. However, a leaked post showed a USD 114.99 (which is around INR 9,800), GBP 99.99 and 104.99 euros price tag.
If the leaked price is accurate, then it would mark a major departure from the standard $70 price tag for most next-generation AAA games.
GTA 6 was listed for more than $100 by a reputable Swiss retailer before the listing was removed.
