GTA 6 is possibly the most anticipated game of all time. Rockstar Games continues to work on it quietly and we don't know when will be released to the game
Take-two Interactive hints that long-anticipated GTA 6 could release in 2024.
The first evidence I can find of a sale for GTA V was in 2015, over a year after launch, and the first price cut appears to be in mid-2018, five years after launch, meaning that they could continue to sell copies at that $60 for five straight years without much extra motivation for consumers. Whatever you think you the cost basis is for GTA Online, it is still a pittance compared to what they’ll bring in.
You don’t know if it can.
Funny then that you seem to know that this is some enormous risk instead of probably the safest investment a video game company has ever made.
Hey, feel free to put some money on the line and call me a fortune teller when this game comes out profitable. Nothing is guaranteed, but a new GTA game, especially after GTA V, is about the closest thing to guaranteed success you’ll see in this industry.

2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

It did not sell at full price everywhere.
And again, it has to NET $2 billion, not gross. You are simply deceiving yourself if you think it is guaranteed to make money.
