Why are games so expensive?
Video games like GTA 6 often launch at a premium price point, reflecting the huge investment in development, marketing, and distribution. These costs have steadily risen over the years as games become more complex and visually stunning, requiring larger teams and longer production cycles. The £69.99 price tag for GTA 6 is typical for a major new release.
