I’m not paying $80 for this game.

    Sony takes a cut of all game sales, not just first party. Larian probably got a better deal with Steam and GoG than Sony and are passing the costs onto console players.

      Yeah, but Larian shouldn’t care if Sony get 30% of £50 or £70 to make up their PS5 losses.

        If Larian sets the price at £50, they make £35 per sale. If Larian sets the price at £70, they make £49 per sale.

        Larian cares, because Larian wants to make money.
