Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take‑Two Interactive, says GTA VI presales are "running far in excess of our expectations..." just days before launch. Analysts had forecast $4.5 billion in first‑week sales, and the latest data shows 6.45 million units pre‑ordered worldwide, with 74% from PlayStation buyers. Zelnick also noted that the GTA VI Ultimate Edition pre‑orders have outpaced the standard version and that the company will release post‑launch performance metrics. The early numbers suggest GTA VI could surpass even the most optimistic forecasts, reinforcing its status as a flagship title for the gaming industry.
