Recent estimates and data from Sensor Tower suggest that GTA VI has sold approximately 9.69 million pre-orders ahead of the November 19, 2026 launch.

These numbers are estimates rather than the official sales data. Take-Two CEO has already confirmed that the original sales and performance figures will be revealed after the launch.
Revenue could cross $1 billion before launch
According to the reported data from Sensor Tower, the game has already generated around $942 million in pre-order revenue. At the current pace, it will easily cross the 10 million pre-order copies and $1 billion mark ahead of the launch.
PlayStation 5 is said to have taken up about 75% of the estimated pre-orders, while Xbox Series X|S has accounted for the remaining 25%.
Do remember that there is no PC version for now. It is expected to be released sometime in 2027 and you can expect more sales from the PC version as well. At the same time, Rockstar Games has also revealed that the game will run at 30 fps on all supported consoles.
