GTA 6 shoots to the moon and past Cyberpunk’s 2020 hype train to become most-preordered game of all time
GTA 6 has reportedly passed Cyberpunk 2077’s pre-order record, with more than 10.3 million copies sold ahead of its planned 19 November release. The figure points to extraordinary demand and could make for a huge launch, while raising questions about whether buyers’ willingness to pay more will influence future game prices.
Sensor Tower’s tracker puts pre-order revenue above US$1 billion, including US$750 million through the PlayStation Store and US$250 million through Xbox. It records 7.73 million PlayStation pre-orders and 2.58 million on Xbox, with the article saying most buyers chose the US$100 edition. The article also cites projections of around US$5 billion in revenue by the end of the opening weekend, though that remains a forecast.
In short
- GTA 6 has reportedly sold over 10.3 million pre-orders.
- Pre-order revenue is said to exceed US$1 billion.
- The figures may add pressure to raise AAA game prices.
