In 2022, the average price for a video game sold in the United States at the year of release was 69.99 U.S. dollars, the first time this level of pricing had been reached. Games for the latest console platforms, PlayStation 5 and Xbox X/S, are more expensive than their predecessors. This has many reasons, such as increased production costs as well as other economic factors, such as inflation.
