GTA 6 marketing budget is at least $150 million
In a report from The Miamian, Miami-Dade County Commissioner Rene Garcia has stated during the discussion that GTA VI-related promotional deals and Rockstar’s marketing budget is at least $150 million.
The quote came while officials discussed the expenses of putting a huge “Welcome to Vice City” ad over the Kaseya Center downtown Miami. The commissioners questioned the deal, as the rooftop sign was reportedly pricey, at $975,000.
Rockstar is also investing heavily in real-world promotions across Miami and slowly starting to expand to other regions as well. There was even a promotional side banner ad displayed during an NFL game.
Past reports indicate the company agreed to pay up to $1.2 million for six ads in varying locations around the city and another promotion in Miami Beach was estimated at $4 million.
Conclusion
For now, Commissioner Garcia did not explain where the $150 million estimate originated. However, truly believe that this figure might be true, as this is the biggest game ever and its reported budget is around $1 billion.
So far, GTA 6 marketing has been phenomenal, and Rockstar is doing everything to market the biggest entertainment launch of all time. As we get closer to release, we might see more details, information or a gameplay trailer for GTA 6.
