It has been almost three years since Take-Two Interactive finally announced GTA 6, and there have been countless supposed leaks in regards to the price tag, with worries bubbling that it’d retail for as much as $100, blowing right past the brand new $80 standard that Mario Kart World and Microsoft attempted to usher in. This weekend, the rumors proceed after Xbox Chat reportedly told a customer that it will retail for the usual $69.99 on the Microsoft Store, but that is hardly confirmation, let alone a good source.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Xbox Chat is an AI-powered virtual assistant, and is liable to mistakes, especially with information that has not been publicly confirmed. At most, CEO Strauss Zelnick has alluded that it won’t be $100 in various interviews, but we’re veering into speculation there. If this Xbox Chat screenshot is legitimate, which we’ll come to in a moment, then it’s likely pulling the figure from the usual triple-A price most other games retail at. It’s actually not a “leak.” <\/p>\n

One other issue with claims like these is that web-based messages reminiscent of Xbox Chat can easily be manipulated with inspect element. So, any screenshots needs to be taken with a grain of salt unless they stem from a good source. But again, as a consequence of the error-prone nature of AI assistants, it’s unlikely that a good source would cite Xbox Chat as proof, anyway. Nonetheless, I made a decision to ask the chatbot myself to see what it will say, and was given the identical stock answer many times: “I’m sorry, but I do not have information on the pricing for Grand Theft Auto 6.” <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n We’ll Likely Find Out The Truth In The Summer
\n <\/h2>\n

Zelnick reaffirmed yet again this week that GTA 6 is on the right track to launch on November 19, with marketing to start this summer, so the worth will undoubtedly be revealed soon. It could thoroughly maintain the usual $69.99 price tag that triple-A games rose to after the launch of the PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S, or it could rise even higher to $80, as we saw with Mario Kart World, and as we almost saw with The Outer Worlds 2; we simply do not know yet. <\/p>\n

Regardless of the case, don’t take this rumor as gospel. It’s enticing to think Xbox Chat may need by accident leaked some private information from behind closed windows at Microsoft, but when the screenshot is real, then it’s likely just an AI blunder, which in the event you’ve ever used the tools, and even just Googled a question within the last 12 months or two, you will be all too acquainted with.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
