Claim: Rockstar Games has officially announced that Grand Theft Auto VI will be priced at $149.99 for the standard edition, with a “Premium” edition costing $249.99.
Verdict: đź”´ FALSE.
While a screenshot of a fake Rockstar Newswire post has been circulating widely on X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok since last week, there is no official announcement regarding the price of GTA 6. The image is a known hoax, created using a template from a popular Reddit photoshop thread. Rockstar’s official website and Take-Two Interactive’s investor reports only confirm a release window of “Fall 2025” with no pricing details. If the base game did cost $150, it would shatter industry pricing norms, and no major retailer or journalist has corroborated this leak. Do not believe the hype—or the fake receipts.
