No official revenue forecast for GTA 6 has been issued by Rockstar or Take-Two. The company only confirms the November 19, 2026 launch and the $79.99 Standard / $99.99 Ultimate pricing. Any specific dollar figure you see is an analyst estimate, not a company statement.
What analysts are saying
Wall Street estimates for first-year sales range from $3 billion to $4 billion. That assumes roughly 25-30 million copies sold across PS5 and Xbox Series X|S at the $79.99 base price, plus Ultimate edition upgrades. For reference, GTA V cleared $1 billion in its first three days in 2013, but that was at $59.99 and on two consoles with a physical disc. Digital-only at a higher price point changes the math.
Pre-orders opened June 25, 2026, with the Vintage Vice City Pack bonus pushing early sales. Analyst note that GTA 6 is likely to become the fastest-selling entertainment product ever, but exact revenue depends on how many buyers choose the $99.99 Ultimate edition and how long the single-player-only launch sustains momentum. Take-Two has not commented on the estimates.
