But if the base is $100 there's probably going to be a $150 and a $200 edition as well, and those will sell very well too

If there's a version with early access it's game over

Case in point: Rockstar released the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI on Tuesday, and the company tells The Hollywood Reporter that it has received over 475 million views across platforms.

For comparison, the first trailer for the game, which was released all the way back in 2023, saw a relatively modest 93 million views in the same window (that trailer was a YouTube exclusive). The company claims that the trailer release is the biggest video launch of all time. In the film space, the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer debuted to 365 million views in its first 24 hours, while The Fantastic Four: First Steps debuted to more than 200 million.

And that demand extends to the soundtrack. The trailer’s featured song was “Hot Together” by The Pointer Sisters (written by Sharon Robinson), and Spotify says that streams of the song soared by 182,000% since its release (no, that isn’t a typo). GTA games feature music heavily via the in-game radio stations, on missions and in cut scenes.

“Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else,” Sulinna Ong, Spotify’s global head of editorial, said in a statement. “Music has been synonymous with the series since the very beginning, so it’s great to see fans both new and established connecting with an iconic track in this way.”

Wonder how many interiors there’s gonna be?

Remember that being something that was lacking in V, couldn’t even enter BurgerShots or anything.

Also, will they go completely buck wild and actually include a DisneyWorld equivalent?
