Today's game world also attracts a particularly enthusiastic mix of tech-savvy and cosmopolitan gamers who are willing to spend, invest, and even help create all sorts of amazing products. Here are some of them.
Star Citizen's Javelin: $2,500
Star Citizen is a crowdfunding project that has been developing steadily for ten years thanks to Cloud Imperium Games. Ironically, the game has no release date, yet managed to raise $600 million through crowdfunding. This amount was made possible, for example, by expensive sales such as the Javelin spaceships, which sold for $2,500 each.
A Javelin is indeed irresistible. She is a massive UEE military module with a detailed interior, plenty of space and a high crew capacity. The ship also has five decks, each with different crew ranks and areas to explore.
The ships can provide fleet support, convoy escort, orbital fire suppression, rapid intercept missions and reconnaissance missions. In short, you can use it to fly through space and blow up other ships.Only 200 pieces were offered for sale and they sold out very quickly. The company also sold a second batch in 2015, showing how much the “space dwellers” are willing to risk for exclusive weapons and exploring new virtual worlds.
CS:GO’s Rare AK47s: $500 – $160,000
Counter Strike: GO has become quite a sensational success in the gaming industry, supporting millions of players simultaneously at its peak. The game is perfect for both beginners and experts. It offers simple missions that are easy to start and finish. It is important to select a team that carries out simple tasks.
As you might expect with such a popular game, there are a lot of expensive in-game purchases. Some of the AK 47 skins have been sold at incredible prices. So the Fire Serpent skin can cost between $500 and $7,000. Expect new skin versions to sell for over $6,000.
Another highlight of this game is the gold Arabesque AK47 skin, which originally sold for $2,000. However, prices rose after supply was limited. Today you have to pay at least $10,000 to snag one. The Wild Lotus also has a price tag of around $10,000. Nevertheless, in March 2023, a single Wild Lotus was traded and sold on the market for over $160,000.
RuneScape Blue Party Hat: $4,000
The Legendary Blue Party Hat on RuneScape was originally a free consolation prize during a one-off Christmas event in 2001. Since then, they have become rare and, as human reason dictates, expensive. After all, exclusivity and rarity always drive up prices.
This non-functional hat now costs over $4,000. They have become so expensive that you have to buy them through a third party like RPG Stash because the price exceeds internal trading limits. This limit was to be expected considering that most online game purchases are not meant to be that expensive. Pay Safe Card online casinos, for example, only allow deposits of up to 300 USD or 250 EUR in a single transaction.
Diablo's Fury Mace Mace: $14,000
A previous patch for the subsequent game contained a damage distribution error, as the power of the mace multiplied. This allowed players to inflict an absurd amount of pain on their opponents, driving up the price of the mace to illustrious heights. The bug was soon fixed, and the price of the mace has since dropped to $14,000 or, in the game, 40 billion gold.
CS: GO' M4 A4 Howl: $20,000 - $200,000
We've already talked about CS:GO's expensive classic AK 47s, but they pale in comparison to the M4 A4 Howl, the only skin with contraband qualities in the game. There has been a long-running controversy within the producer over ownership of the graphics rights, which has prevented further releases and makes the skin extremely rare.
Models of the rifle that do not have a sticker can be purchased starting at $5,000. However, a factory new version with Stat Trak can cost up to $20,000. With expensive stickers you can even pay more than $100,000.
Even better, a version of the Howl with 4 iBuyPower Holo stickers that cost $20,000 sold in April 2023 for $215,000. The skin went to a Maltese skin collector named Bidule. The sale was exciting because the potential buyers only had three days to prepare their liquidity. Experts estimate that this skin would have sold for at least $250,000 if more time had been available.
Entropia's Planet Calypso: $6 million
Calypso, a planet in the Entropia virtual universe, definitely won the prize for the most expensive game item. Entropia is known for extravagant deals and investors willing to take bold risks. For example, a player who calls himself “Buzz Eric Lightyear” once bought a space station on the planet Calypso for $330,000.
Another player, “Jon Jacob,” mortgaged his house to purchase an asteroid for $100,000 on which he built a club called “Neverdie.” He built the planet and made a return on the patronage of other players. He later sold it for a staggering sum of $635,000.
For all the lavish purchases, however, none surpasses the sale of the planet Calypso itself, which changed hands for an astronomical $6,000,000. Even under new management, Calypso continues to offer a diverse ecosystem, a thriving economy and numerous profit opportunities.
Our Conclusion On The Most Expensive Game Items In The World
Dozens of other virtual game items could have been included in this list, but we've only focused on a few interesting ones. Because these few also shed light on the ever-growing interest in online games. These price tags confirm the financial capabilities of the gaming world and set the bar even higher for future gaming investments.
