why is this game so expensive?

[DonPablo]

because of lego or is it so good?

[Drakeeper]

I'd wager it's because it's being published by 2K. They're not known for selling games cheap, and they often come with drm.

[Narcissistic Cannibal]

Because it's 2K, now trying to sink the Lego franchise after dealing with WWE.

[Vervaticus]

Visual Concepts Entertainment, the guys behind WWE2K and NBA2K

I could be wrong but aren't 2k games usually heavily discounted after just a few months?

Lego 2k = €119
FoRSpOkEN = €104.99
Diablo 4 = €99.99
CoD MW2 || WZ2 = @99.99
Forza 5 = €99.99
RDR2 = €89.99
Elden Ring = €79.99
Hogwarts Legacy = €69.99
Resident Evil 4 = €69.99
Last Epoch = €33.99

Want to clarify that the prices above may vary from country to country probably, and it is also based on the hightest tier of deluxe editions etc WITHOUT discount

Its 2K. Expect tons of microtransactions. Easily one of the most predatory companies in gaming. They're so bad I'm looking forward to EA's golf game. EA. FFS man.

[Vexing Sphincter]

This game seems to copy exactly the pricing structure of Forza Horizon 5 and it also seems to be somewhat of a competitor. I guess we'll see if it's a bad buy when it comes out, but the coins included in the DLC is already a terrible sign.

$179.95 for Australian. Yeah, they can KEEP IT!!!

It's $60, just like any other AAA game. I'm honestly surprised it's not $70. That is just starting to become the new standard for AAA titles.

[Finishing_Dutch]

So we've got a VERY expensive game, with microtransactions, AND a season pass. At this point, I'm wondering why I should even pay for the base game. I mean, the pass itself now costs what the entire game would've cost a decade ago.

Oh look it's those hypocrites who cry and moan for "muh politics in games" and yet they're bringing politics into unrelated topic. Every single time.

Ye, it's not 2K's fault but Joe Biden's that someone in Spain or New Zealand (Biden is president there too I guess) is not rich like arab sheikh to buy this overpriced denuvo'ed MTX'ed battle pass'ed generic game.
