GTA 6 Price Addressed by Take-Two CEO - IGN Daily Fix

Today's Daily Fix covers GTA 6 pricing, new PlayStation Plus games for May, and a preview of Saros' second chance mechanic. Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick addressed rumors of a "super premium" price for Grand Theft Auto 6. He emphasized delivering spectacular entertainment to justify pricing, noting video games have been in the $70 range for a decade. Zelnick believes if they create an amazing experience, sales will follow, quipping many will "call in sick on November 19." While not confirming an exorbitant price, the game is expected to sell well regardless. Sony confirmed May's PlayStation Plus games: "Wu-Chang: Fallen Feathers," an action RPG set in China's Ming Dynasty, "9 Souls," a 2D Metroidvania inspired by Sekiro, and "EA Sports FC 26," the annual soccer game. Wu-Chang received an 8/10 from IGN for its combat and design, while 9 Souls holds an 84 on Metacritic. EA Sports FC 26 improved on its predecessor but was criticized for its season pass. Finally, "Saros," from the makers of Returnal, releases April 30th on PS5. It features a "second chance" mechanic, reviving players instantly on their first death, along with evolving weapon loadouts and fluid combat.
