CEO of R Star’s company decided to launch a standalone version of GTAOL

According to GameSpot’s report yesterday, R Star’s parent company, Take-Two, decided to launch a standalone version of “GTAOL”. One of the main reasons for this decision is that the market for “GTA5” has been saturated.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick (Strauss Zelnick) said at a technical meeting at Morgan Stanley: “When you sell so many games, you will come to a conclusion at some point.

The game’s sales market is saturated.” “In this case, you will be willing to try another way to let people experience the possibility of online mode, (“GTAOL” standalone version) to make the game cheaper, It’s also easier to acquire new customers.

Of course, you can’t get the initial single-player experience, but you can enter an online world to play. We think that this may be a different market, which is part of expanding the (GTA series) player base This way.”

He said that in addition to “Red Dead Redemption 2: Redemption 2”, the company also launched “Red Dead Redemption Online” as an independent game in November 2019 to verify whether their operational thinking is correct.

“Red Dead Redemption Online” has become very popular since its release, and users who purchase the online version may also pay to upgrade to the full version of “Red Dead Redemption 2”. He thinks this is a good attempt to expand the player base, which will help the game achieve long-term success.

The standalone version of “Red Dead Redemption Online” was priced at US$20, but in the following weeks, its price dropped by 75%, eventually dropping to US$5. R Star may use a similar sales strategy in “GTAOL”, but Take-Two and R Star did not announce the release content or price details.

140 million units of “Grand Theft Auto V” have been sold. Although it has been released for several years, it still frequently ranks among the top ten NPD sales.

The Take-Two company often boasted that its GTA online mode microtransactions are a big plus for the company, which may explain why there is no news of “GTA6” until now.
