The gaming community is divided after a viral post raised a tough question. If players only had $80 for one Rockstar game, should they choose GTA 6 or Red Dead Redemption 3? The debate quickly spread across social media and sparked strong opinions.
Fans of GTA 6 point to its modern setting and long-term value. The game will return players to Vice City, now part of the state of Leonida, with satire and large-scale chaos. Many believe the expanded GTA Online mode will offer years of replay value.
Supporters also note that GTA 6 is a confirmed release. Rockstar has set the launch for November 19, 2026. For many casual players, the long wait since GTA 5 makes the choice feel easy.
On the other side, Red Dead Redemption 3 fans argue for story and atmosphere. They praise the emotional depth and slow pace that made Red Dead Redemption 2 special. Many say no modern game matches its immersion.
However, RDR 3 remains unannounced. Industry insiders suggest that if the game is coming, it may not release until 2030 or later. Even so, loyal fans say the wait is worth it.
The debate also centers on price. Analysts believe GTA 6 could launch at $80, breaking the current $70 standard. Some rumors mention $100 editions, but most expect that price for deluxe versions with extras.
Experts warn that if Rockstar succeeds at this price, other studios may follow. This could make $80 the new normal for big-budget games on current consoles.
A final concern focuses on hardware. With GTA 6 launching late in 2026, some fans worry the PS5 and Xbox Series X may soon be replaced. Players fear they could be forced to upgrade again after buying one of the most expensive games ever.
