Ubisoft leaks the price of PS4 game

Chazz from PSNation has done some digging and hidden in a webpage for a UPlay exclusive edition for the new Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag. Which will be coming out on all current and next gen platforms but he just found out the price for the game.

Looks like one third party publisher isn't changing their price.

Woo hoo no price increase for PS4 games!

Happy

xHeavYx4042d ago

Didn't Sony already confirm that games were going to be $60?

MostJadedGamer4042d ago

Thats the MAX they will be. Like this Generation there will be many games that retail for $40 or $50.

teedogg804042d ago

We've known this for over a month now. The games will range from .99 to $60.

ThanatosDMC4042d ago

Activision will sell their games for $59.99 then charge for dlc for $15 or season passes for $30 as per usual.

Jack Tretton: "the PS4 is designed with the game developer in mind and the consumer in mind, and will offer games with prices ranging from $0.99 to the more traditional $60 range with the ability for players to sample games before they buy.
I think people are willing to pay if they see the value there,"

a_bro4042d ago

stupid analysts escalated the rumor stated that it was going to be $70

Blackdeath_6634042d ago

yeah they did, don't know why some people are still lingering over the subject.

mynameisEvil4042d ago

@a_bro
Well, you can't spell 'analysts' without 'anal', which seems to be the region on their bodies in which they produce their "analyses."

SubtenkoGaming4042d ago

People still commenting saying nothing is confirmed...read what people are telling you when we're saying that Sony already confirmed PS4 game prices weeks ago.

DeadlyFire4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

Fact is games sell slower at $60 price point than $50. So noone really chances more than that just yet its to early to think about trying it.

People that buy Season pass DLC as soon as they buy the game are the ones promoting them selling games at $100+ bucks. Solution is simple if they do push higher prices. Don't buy DLC.

LackTrue4K4042d ago

60 bucks or not, we all know there's gana be tons of DLC.
And even more so, with the new/much faster online store.
Aside from that, I'm glad there not over 60.

ChazzH694042d ago

Sony said their games would be priced up to £60 but third party publishers were still unknown in their pricing.

Starfox-174041d ago

Well wiiu games like Beyonetta2/Watchdogs and X are £50 on GAME UK website so it was obvious the ps4 would be the same.

Omni-Tool4041d ago

This is a price for the Black chest edition. Not the game its self.

ziggurcat4042d ago

sony confirmed that games would still be $60 shortly after the PS4 announcement.

so, i'm not surprised.

Blastoise4042d ago

Until EA appears. £60 please! £70 if you buy digital & don't forget those micro-transactions!

Seriously though I'm glad there's no price increase, games are expensive enough as it is.

_FantasmA_4042d ago

abro

Wrong! It wasn't analysts that said $70, it was Michael Pacther. If you don't know who he is he is a guy who is always wrong and is as much a gamer as Lil Wayne is a good rapper (he's not).

Crazyglues4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

well if that's true then Assassin Creed IV is indeed getting picked up by me on PS4.....

-was going to pass after I saw the gameplay trailer - http://bit.ly/103t5ZL - because it look like AC3 on PS3 but if it's the same price then ok I'll get it..

-Because that's awesome that they kept the price the same for next gen... + the PS3 and PS4 get 60mins of additional content for free.

So that's pretty cool

SPAM-FRITTER-1234042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

Why did you expect to pay more? You're just going to be spending £400 on a machine that might not even offer 1080 AGAIN.

EDIT: Sony are charging £40 for PSVita games so who knows.

Starfox-174041d ago

All 3 nextgen consoles will have the same graphics,but ps4 and 720 are charging u for a hard drive and bluray player as well as the console,i personally prefer to just add anything up to a 3TB hard drive of any make to my console u can shop around and get a fair price unlike ps4 ect as we dont know if 720 will do the same again ? ur over paying for a 256GB hard drive that simply isnt enough with games around 24GB ? that's about 10 games not good enough a cheaper console without it is the way to go.

omi25p4042d ago

Earlier on when i preordered The Black Chest Edition these were the console choices.

Xbox 360
PS3
Wii U
PS4
PC
PC Download
*Undefined*

Dont know if its still there.

Chucky20034042d ago

well yeah,but then it comes the microtransactions,then the season pass,some paid skins ,weapons that should had been in the game from the start,even shorter games,dlc,then after all of these you realize that you paid a lot more for the game,You will come and say that you're not forced to pay for them,but then again you know you will,because it will feel that something is missing from the game,or you really want that skin or weapon,the price maybe won;t change,but everything else in the games will

Wagz224042d ago

So all the disagrees for galactic means that you wanted to pay a higher price for ps4 games?

NobleTeam3604042d ago

The funny thing is that Amazon is using a 99 placeholder even though we have plenty of confirmed evidence that points to games costing 60.

chrish19904041d ago

Love how ps3news.com updated their story from 5 weeks ago with an update that is copied word for word from - http://www.thegamescabin.co...

Classy.

Eleven people are not happy because they want to pay more for games .__.

LordOfAdmirals4042d ago

it would be verybad if they increase the prices of games. £40/$60 is about as high as it should go.

Reverent4042d ago

Even $60 is asking for too much (depending on the game, of course). Really glad to know for sure that the prices won't be rising at all.

sourav934042d ago

Only the source code says the price for the PS4 version. This could be because they're not officially allowed to reveal the price for the PS4 version of the game, perhaps. Nonetheless, this is great news as it shows there won't be a price hike for next gen video games.

BLAKHOODe4042d ago

With the way things are going, it'll be $60 for half the game.. another $30 to $40 to download the other half.

Neoninja4042d ago

It's scary as to how much truth there is to your statement!

adorie4042d ago

80 bucks for my copy of Chrono Trigger for SNES. It could be worse. 72 bucks for Super Mario Bros. 3.

-_- I'm not impressed by 60 bucks for big budget production-games.

Ubisoft's Recent Antics Have Me Fearful For The Sands of Time Remake

Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."

Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

At this point, only dummies have any hope left for Ubi-junk games.

jznrpg21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
