GTA 6 Launch Clouded by Industry's Affordability Crisis and Sustainability Concerns

Grand Theft Auto 6's impending release is overshadowed by the gaming industry's mounting issues, including console price hikes, layoffs, and contentious ownership models. Xbox Series X's new $800 price tag and GTA 6's $80 code-in-a-box physical edition exemplify the growing affordability crisis. The industry's sustainability is under scrutiny as Bungie's layoffs and the costly Steam Machine highlight the challenges ahead.
