Wingefors said it’s been “hard” to increase price for premium games in the console and PC space, and due to this, “the margin to success is less.” Prices beyond $70 for new game releases is not out of the realm of possibility, Wingefors said, and it might take one company being a first-mover and seeing how the market responds.
