They still need sales beyond launch week.. I took a quick look on shopto and even stuff like Mortal Kombat X had hit the £40 mark. Even with that, it's still clearly way below historic prices. I stated this was offset by increases in userbases. However that has now halted so something is going to give somewhere.
It's either going to be higher prices, more necessity to sell add ons/DLC or developers going bust, and we saw a good chunk of the latter last gen.
