- Take-Two Interactive and 2K Games announced a price of $ 49.99 and a release date in August for Mafia: The old country
- He arrives in the middle of the movements of Nintendo and Microsoft to $ 80
- This raises questions about Grand Theft Auto 6The price when launched in 2026
While the highly anticipated title of Rockstar Games, Grand Theft Auto 6is on the radar of most players with its recent advertising announcement and its release of trailer, another title which is also under Take-Two Interactive’s Umbrella has finally a release date-and its more affordable price could be a surprise.
It was revealed that Mafia: The old country Will launch on August 8, 2025, and arrived at PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S and PC. It will be launched with a standard edition at $ 49.99 and a luxury edition for $ 59.99, both available in pre -order now.
This occurs after Nintendo and Microsoft have started to increase the prices of certain games to $ 80. It should be noted that the new game prices for Microsoft will not have entered into force before the start of this holiday season, and we are still waiting to see if Sony follows suit.
However, the price of $ 49.99 for Mafia: The old country Seems to be much less on interactive games and 2K not following the trend of $ 80, and more on the shorter length and presentation of the game. The president of 2K, David Ismailer, said: “We believe that there is a large audience for convincing stories that do not require massive time commitments”, which lets hear The old country have a short execution time.
Borderlands 4 Also launches a month later, September 12, but there is no information on the pre -order or the price on this title yet. There is no doubt that the next Mafia The game price will have players wondering what it means for the period shooter and GTA 6.
Take-Two Interactive When embarrassing Nintendo, Microsoft and any other company invoicing $ 80, but I don’t think it will be …
To say that I hate $ 80, even the $ 70 game prices, is an understatement and it was sad to see Nintendo and Microsoft launch the trend. This is only a matter of time until Sony joins the party and for the vast majority of game publishers to follow.
I hope desperately not to move interactive, but it seems unlikely. The players were waiting GTA 6 For twelve years, he was in the process of thirteen because of his 2026 delay – and he is sure to say that a large majority of players are ready to pay more than $ 80 for this.
Given the rumors of the budget of $ 2 billion in the game, a higher price could be justified, but if Take-Two Interactive had to invoice $ 70 (or even lower) for the long-awaited title, this would poorly reflect on Microsoft and Nintendo and help it steal shelves and crush even more records than it would probably do not like it.
The reasoning is simple – it is GTA 6No doubt the most anticipated game of all time. Rockstar Games is in a separate league with regard to size, scope and attention to detail and if I had to choose between Mario Kart World at $ 80 and GTA 6 With the latter being cheaper, it is an easy decision.
