Don’t worry about GTA 6 costing $100—you might be paying $112 instead

While GTA 6 players are debating on social media whether the rumored $100 price tag is fair—even without seeing the full game yet—a Swiss retailer might have even worse news for those who already think the game is expensive. Swiss retailer Brack has listed a GTA 6 pre-order page on its website. The store is legitimate, so this isn’t just a random listing. According to the product page, the game is priced at $99 Swiss francs, which, as of March 11, converts to about $112. Screenshot by Destructoid. The retailer has also answered customer questions on the page, with two common ones being whether this is a real pre-order and whether the price could change. The store was clear—the price is correct for now, and this is the store's pre-order listing for GTA 6. GTA 6 official preorders are still not live, though Stores can set up pre-orders however they want, even if they aren’t official partners with Rockstar. If you place a GTA 6 pre-order with Brack, it likely means that when the game is released, the store will have your information and send you a copy, but it does not mean Rockstar has confirmed global pre-orders. It’s essentially a reservation to secure a copy in case stock runs out quickly. Unless you live in Switzerland, it’s probably not worth paying for this pre-order. And even then, it's an early listing, and we don't know if this price is higher than Rockstar's suggested retailer price for GTA 6. This situation is similar to what happened with a GTA 6 preorder in Malaysia, where one store independently set up preorders for the game. If more retailers follow suit, we’ll likely see more unofficial preorders popping up. However, at the time of writing, there is no official GTA 6 preorder page on Rockstar’s website, as we only have an idea of the game's release window and no exact release date. This does not confirm GTA 6 will cost $112 The $112 price tag is not an official confirmation of the game’s global price. Game prices vary by country for many reasons, including import taxes. In some regions, games are significantly more expensive due to additional costs for retailers. That said, it’s unlikely that taxes alone are the reason for this high price. While this doesn’t confirm reports that GTA 6 will cost $100, it does suggest that the game may be more expensive than most current AAA titles. It’s also unclear whether Brack's listing refers to a standard edition or a more expensive deluxe edition. Some retailers offer preorders for special editions before standard versions go live, which could explain the high price. For now, the only thing guaranteed is that if you pre-order GTA 6 from Brack, you’ll pay the equivalent of $112 for a copy. Whether this hints at a higher price in other regions remains uncertain, but it does suggest that GTA 6 may not be as cheap as today’s AAA games.
