Deadpool Video Game Prices Skyrocket Amid Interest from New Movie Release

With the release of “Deadpool & Wolverine” in theaters, the 2013 Deadpool video game developed by High Moon Studios has seen a surge in resale prices. Originally available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, and later remastered for PS4 and Xbox One in 2015, the game has become increasingly difficult to find. This scarcity has led to a significant increase in its market value.

According to Price Charting data, prices for the Deadpool game on PS3 and Xbox 360 hover around $30, while the Xbox One version fetches over $50. The PS4 edition, however, commands the highest prices, averaging over $90. Recent eBay sales have even seen the PS4 version selling for as much as $142, $130, and $115, indicating a heightened demand coinciding with the movie’s release.

The game’s high resale value is attributed to its delisting from digital platforms in 2017, following the expiration of licensing agreements. Consequently, the only way to purchase the game now is through physical copies, which are becoming increasingly rare and sought after by fans.

For those looking to buy the game, it’s worth noting that the current spike in prices may be temporary. Historically, the game’s standard resale value has ranged between $40 and $50 for the PS4 version. As the initial excitement from “Deadpool & Wolverine” wanes, prices are expected to stabilize, potentially offering a more affordable purchase opportunity in the future.

Key Points:

• The Deadpool video game, initially released in 2013, has seen a significant price increase due to the release of “Deadpool & Wolverine” in theaters.
• Resale prices for the game range from around $30 for PS3 and Xbox 360 versions to over $90 for the PS4 version, with recent sales reaching as high as $142.
• The game was delisted from digital platforms in 2017 due to expired licensing agreements, making physical copies the only purchase option.
• The current price surge is expected to be temporary, with prices likely to decrease as initial interest from the new movie subsides.
• Prospective buyers may find better deals if they wait for prices to stabilize.
