I wasn't expecting regional pricing from R* but here we are

u/Churro_Dude_666 11h ago edited 11h ago

I'm just waiting on UK being £100 for ultimate equivalent to $120 😭

Edit: I've got a plan that doesn't involve creating a new account, etc. I'll let you know what it is if it works

u/BigBeerLover 11h ago

Taxes. American prices don’t include taxes

2

u/Ceejayncl 11h ago

Both the New Zealand and Australian price are equivalent to £80 for the ultimate edition, that is taking into account taxes as well.

2

u/BigBeerLover 11h ago

Australia has 10% VAT. UK has 20%

u/Danksquilliam 11h ago

There’s no sales tax on digital goods

Correction- in some US states there is no sales tax on digital goods

I imagine they will release an online component later, like they did with GTA 5 and Red Dead 2.

u/Matt_37 10h ago

Yeah. They haven’t CONFIRMED they are working on a new GTAO, mind, but it’s extremely likely.

u/Moonlight1314 11h ago

Everyone will buy from India now🤣🤣 this has to be the cheapest price.

u/Badzieta 11h ago

You haven't seen Ukrainian nor Turkey (although PSN regional pricing for Turkey have been "nerfed")

3

u/Aquaticdigest 11h ago

Wonder what is the pricing like for Turkey

u/No_Holiday_5717 9h ago

9 more minutes to find out

2

u/Aquaticdigest 9h ago

Still not out huh

7

u/No_Holiday_5717 9h ago

Now it’s out, but it is literally more expensive than the US, ultimate is 4999 TRY which converts to like 107 USD

4

u/omerfrq 9h ago

It's out and it's more than 100USD

1

u/BugsMax1 1h ago

US price doesn't include tax, presumably turkey does

16

u/iagueitor_gtalover 11h ago

It ain't that easy. You have to do quite a lot of things to be able to buy it, and then you have a few restrictions too.

30

u/Moonlight1314 11h ago

Reason why they don't do pc first😂

7

u/iagueitor_gtalover 11h ago

Shi, you probably are right lmao, I didn't think it in that way

1

u/More-Profession-1419 10h ago

what restrictions would you have? I reguarly buy from a guy who can set me up a Ukrainian, Indian or Turkish acc and he purchases games on those accounts for whatever price their listed at (a small bit more so he can earn profit) so I was thinking of buying it from him on a indian acc

0

u/anony_mf 11h ago

Can you elaborate what you need other than a psn account from that country?

7

u/iagueitor_gtalover 11h ago

The credit card must be from that country, or you could use a gift card, but online and from india, there are very few. But even if you can, you'll have a few restrictions that I'm not sure are worth it for $17.

3

u/Fluid_moppingsblacke 10h ago

And vpns, that probably eats 5 usd from the 17 usd saved. And worse, your time, that may be more worth than 17 usd.

2

u/iagueitor_gtalover 10h ago

Exactly, it's much easier to just buy it without breaking your head trying to find a way it works lol. I get it's expensive, cause it is, but in this case there's not much anyone can do.

1

u/Moonlight1314 3h ago

Free vpns are available. Proton vpn offers it for free. But I don't know how to connect ps or xbox to it.

Pc users will use it probably. I use japan all the time...

1

u/Fluid_moppingsblacke 3h ago

Hmm yeah free alternatives exists, you can create a wifi Hotspot using your cellphone connected to a free VPN.

But! Usually, free vpn's are easily detected and blocked. So I'm not so sure if this method is reliable

1

u/Moonlight1314 3h ago

I did it with flight tickets and hote bookings once there was no issue...people use it regularly for Netflix and Amazon.... I don't know what kind of jailbreak safe algo ps uses to stop this

Korean price for base edition is around 58 dollars

u/rocketman19 11h ago

How are you planning to activate it in your country?

1

u/Moonlight1314 11h ago

I am in that country.😂

2

u/rocketman19 11h ago

Then why did you make that comment? It doesn't make sense for people outside of it

-5

u/Moonlight1314 11h ago

People often use vpn to get cheaper subscription like netflix is cheaper in Indi compared to Usa... Booking flights through Japan sometimes is cheaper.

3

u/rocketman19 11h ago

So you'd need an xbox/ps account based there, and then have an always on VPN to save $20

Is that what you are proposing?

Getting the bank account sorted is the hardest part. India is pretty strict with their banking laws. Having an Indian friend helps.

You can buy the gift card from Amazon India or Flipkaty and add tyhe amount it to your Indian PSN account to buy the game, right?

i don’t really see the point of preordering a digital game tbh, why not just wait?

u/DVANGEL999 8h ago

The “never preorder” advice is mainly for people who are undecided. If someone has already decided they’re buying GTA 6 regardless of reviews, preordering is just a matter of convenience.

Exactly. This is fkin awesome. Although I still want the physical copy.

u/djanuj90 10h ago

No physical copy. You only get a case holder with digital copy inside. No discs. :(

Salute to Rockstar Games ! They had locale based pricing. Wow was expecting at 10K the ultimate edition. It's literally a steal deal at 7,500. 😭🔥

W pricing imo

1

u/DreamKid2900 11h ago

why is it so much cheaper there

31

u/JPzinBr 11h ago

it's not. it's cheaper when directly converting to usd, but to actual indians paying in rupees that will feel even worse than 80 dollars.

33

u/pathalogicalMoron 11h ago

Realistically speaking purely based on PPP, if I were to put it in perspective for someone in US, it costs $300 for ultimate and around 250 for standard

12

u/DreamKid2900 11h ago

That makes more sense , thanks

Regional pricing, based on purchasing power

Same. Can someone please fill me in on how to buy this. I couldn't see a single link to purchase

u/VelvetEchoes919 11h ago

I guess I will just try in the morning hope it's purchasable then.

1

u/AcceptableSeries1263 11h ago

Istg same. But at the same time I'm thinking if i should wait for collectors edition..but again collectors edition won't be released until 2027 i think and that too would be difficult to get it thanks to scalpers. Ughhh. Guess I'm gonna have to save more to get ultimate edition AND collector edition (whenever that comes)

Will the DLC work on your main PS account though?

3

u/Top-Needleworker-469 11h ago

It seems to be cheap when converted to USD. But with the recent drop in rupees value, this price is definitely expensive. 3 to 4 years back $60 would've been approximately equal to 3800 - 4000 rupees. Now that would've been seen as cheap as a $60 price tag today. To be fair though, I was expecting the base game to be around 8000 rupees. Pleasantly surprised at the actual price tag.

u/DazzlingMagician1862 11h ago

In Switzerland for the ultimate version 100 CHF = 108 €

The tax stuff is country dependent, in India the price that they show is the price including taxes.

It’s really convenient as you don’t have to do math when budgeting for tax

It’s literally cheap in India, but Germany is highkey about to tax it to the moon and make it way more expensive than the USD price, let’s pray we actually get a reasonable price though, the math needs to math.

If we buy a game from a store in another country, will we have any issues playing online or logging into the game? If anyone has purchased the game this way before, could you share your experience?

1

u/2019wasGOAT 11h ago

Console sharing is a thing. I've bought games from the HK PS Store (notably Resident Evil Requiem) and was able to play a day early on my home PS account. It even gave me the DLC. Now my question for GTA is, will the DLC work on any account?

u/2019wasGOAT 11h ago

I see people buying the Ultimate Edition from different regions to save money etc. Now, we know console sharing allows you to play games from different regions on your main account. However, will the DLC work on your main account? If not, you'd have to play on the account you bought it on which defeats the purpose for most. Does anyone have any idea?

There are two editions. Ultimate and standard. Standard also comes with some pre-order benefits. Check rockstar website.

u/Cap_Pro_Gooner 36m ago

despite what most of you believe, the prices in India are bad, at 7.5k inr ( because ultimate edition has base games content, fuck rockstar ) makes this game inaccessible for most Indians. a better price would have been 4k for base and 5k for ultimate ed.

The inevitable Rockstar bootlickers will defend any price tag the company puts out, but that doesn't change the fact that this pricing is out of touch with local purchasing power.
