The excitement surrounding GTA 6 continues to grow, and as expected, figures are already circulating that reflect the enormous interest in Rockstar Games’ new title. In recent hours, a rumor has emerged claiming that the game has achieved spectacular pre-order numbers.

However, it’s essential to note from the outset that neither Rockstar Games nor Take-Two Interactive has confirmed this information, so it should be treated with caution until official data is available.

A rumor suggests 39 million pre-orders and over $3 billion

According to this information, Grand Theft Auto VI has surpassed 39 million pre-ordered copies before its release, a figure that, if true, would shatter any known record in the video game industry.

• The same rumor also claims that these pre-orders have already generated over $3 billion in revenue, solidifying GTA 6 as one of the entertainment products with the most significant economic impact even before its release.

However, no evidence has been provided to support these figures, and there is no official documentation to verify them. Given the game’s massive media impact, it’s not surprising that unconfirmed estimates and data are emerging in the weeks leading up to its release.

For now, the only official information is that Grand Theft Auto VI will arrive on November 19, 2026, for Xbox Series, and pre-orders are already open. Until Rockstar or Take-Two shares real figures, any data on pre-sales should be considered just a rumor.
