Grand Theft Auto 6 digital pre-orders reach 9.69 million

Analytics firm Sensor Tower estimates that Grand Theft Auto 6 has reached 9.69 million digital pre-orders. If accurate, the total puts Rockstar Games ahead of the previous record held by Cyberpunk 2077, which recorded 8 million pre-orders before launching in December 2020. CD Projekt Red's previous tally included physical and digital copies, while the current figures track only digital sales.

The digital pre-orders have generated approximately $942 million in revenue. PlayStation 5 sales account for $703 million of that total, while Xbox Series X/S contribute $239 million. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says pre-orders are significantly ahead of initial company expectations. Neither Rockstar Games nor Take-Two Interactive has released official pre-order totals.

Grand Theft Auto 6 launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 19, 2026. A PC release date has not yet been announced.
