There have been reports circulating recently that the development of GTA 6 has cost Rockstar an estimated $1 - 2 billion. If this is true, then this game could be the most expensive game ever made, surpassing the cost of making games like Destiny, Star Citizen, Cyberpunk 2077, and Modern Warfare 2.

Meanwhile, Grand Theft Auto V, which was released in 2013, only cost around $250 million to make. However, the game was a huge success and managed to gross over $1 billion in just three days after its launch.

GTA 6: The Most Ambitious Game?

There are many other ambitious games, such as Starfield with 1000 planets to explore, or Ghost Recon: Wildlands which creates a realistic world with each character having their own life.

However, if the rumors are true, then GTA 6 could be the most expensive game ever made. For more than ten years, fans have been waiting for news about the development of the next GTA game.

Rockstar Games themselves have actually acknowledged that they are working on the next GTA game. Unfortunately, they haven't provided details about the background story, the number of main characters, or the multiplayer mode that will be offered.

GTA game development costs have continued to increase since the first game was released. The following is an estimate of the cost of making each GTA game, citing the insider-gaming.com page:

• Grand Theft Auto (1997) - $1 - 2 million*
• Grand Theft Auto 2 (1999) - $3 - 4 million*
• Grand Theft Auto 3 (2001) - $5 million*
• Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) - $5 million
• Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004) - $10 million
• Grand Theft Auto IV (2008) - $100 million
• Grand Theft Auto V (2013) - $250 million
• Grand Theft Auto 6 (2024?) - $1 - 2 billion

(*These are estimates based on research only)

Currently, the value of Take-Two, which is the parent company of Rockstar Games, is approximately $21 billion. So spending $1.5 billion over ten years to create GTA 6 seems reasonable. Especially if we think about how much money we will get from selling this game later.

Although there has been no official confirmation, if these reports are true, GTA 6 could be the most expensive and most ambitious game ever. While waiting for the official announcement from Rockstar and Take-Two, all we can do now is hope that this game will live up to the high expectations and enthusiasm of the fans.
