In 2014 it was about $1.63 to the Pound. It's now a shade under $1.33.

Apple actually put it down to currency fluctuations which is perfectly reasonable. Looks like Eurogamer themselves blaming Brexit which, while a part of it, isn't the entire story of course.

You may want to also turn your anger onto Virgin Media. They make a negative remark about the vote and its short-term impact on them.

The reduction in the value of the Pound won't have done anything to discourage VM from hiking its prices, let's put it like that. VM had to make that announcement by law.
