Chris Stockman, the design director of the original Saints Row, hopes that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be priced at $100. He shared his thoughts in an interview with Esports Insider.

According to Stockman, only GTA 6 can justify such a price tag. The developer emphasized that if all publishers adopted this pricing model, it would ignite a strong wave of discontent among gamers.

They’re the only ones that can get away with it.

I don’t think it’s a rising tide that floats all boats. I think that there’ll be a tremendous amount of backlash if everyone switched to $100. Not all games are created equal. I think GTA is the only one that can get away with it, and I hope they do. I really hope it’s $100. I think it deserves to be $100.

The scope and magnitude of this production deserves that price tag, but not everything is treated equally. It would be a disaster if everyone tried to match them.
