10 Most Expensive Video Games You Didn't Know Exist
1. Blackout - £1,999.98
As if the last entry wasn't bad enough, this game manages to be only 2 pence short of the £2,000 mark. Think of all the things you could do with that money!
So, what does this game bring to the table to justify that ridiculous price tag? Well, it's an indie PS1-style horror game; because the market isn't already over-saturated with enough of them.
Blackout is a first-person survival horror that sees you exploring a sinister house. You'll wander around darkened hallways and rooms as the story slowly unfolds.
The price-to-length ratio is certainly skewed, as Blackout clocks in at roughly an hour if you really take your time with it. Paying that much money for an experience that has barely a fraction of the time you can spend in a £70 game feels almost perverse.
In the game's defence, there are definitely worse indie horror games out there. It's nothing all too unique, but a lot of passion and thought clearly went into it. If it came in at £10 or under, then there might be more positive things to say about it. But, as the most expensive game currently on Steam, it has a clear case of mistaken identity.
