Why are $70 AAA games slashing prices so drastically?
(lemmy.world)
It's beyond insane to me that a $70 "AAAA" game (kidding, it's AAA) dips down to the absurd price of $5. I've never seen anything like it. Wish the entire Sims 4 "collection" if you can call it that was $5 total, would be incredible, or Starfield.
Price tier strategy. Get impatient people to pay $70 because they need to play ASAP. And then sales to get people who won't pay $70. Pricing low permanently misses out on getting as much money from people who are willing to pay more throughout the year.
