That can't really be a relevant example of an impaired high-price game though, because it's free everywhere.

- Jensson 5y agoYou can't have a game be free on one platform and cost money on another either, at least I am not aware of any such games. So either it is free/cheap everywhere or you don't release it on phones. Edit: And by high budget games I mean games with a high development budget, not games that costs a lot to buy. Genshin impact is a AAA game that runs on phones, they invested $100 million to make it, that is what I meant by it being a high budget game.

Among Us is paid on PC/console but free on mobile. PUBG was similar before it went free to play on all platforms earlier this year.
- lupire 5y agoAmong Us is $5 on PC/Switch and ad-supported freemium on Android. Not a AAA game as discusssed on this thread.
- delecti 5y agoMy point is that the discussion wasn't around "high budget", it was around "high price". Yes Genshin Impact is high budget, but it's free everywhere so it's not relevant to the phenomenon of there effectively being a cap on game prices on phones.
