IGN Poll Reveals 70% Plan to Buy the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition Over the Standard Edition

A recent IGN poll has revealed significant consumer interest in purchasing the premium edition of Rockstar Games’ upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6. According to the survey of thousands of respondents, 70% of players indicated they plan to buy the $100 Ultimate Edition rather than the $79.99 Standard Edition of the game.

Rockstar confirmed the pricing structure with the Standard Edition set at $79.99 for single-player content, while the Ultimate Edition costs $100. The $79.99 price point represents a notable increase from the standard $69.99 price point that has dominated the current console generation, making GTA 6 more expensive than most contemporary releases. The pricing mirrors broader industry trends, with Nintendo similarly positioning certain releases like Mario Kart World at $80.

The overwhelming preference for the Ultimate Edition among poll respondents suggests strong consumer willingness to spend on the premium version, despite the additional $20 cost. This purchasing behavior indicates robust demand for GTA 6 across different edition tiers, with a clear majority choosing the enhanced offering over the base experience.
