GTA 6 has possibly just become the most pre-ordered video game of all time. An updated sales estimate indicates it has taken the crown just a week ahead of its launch. This comes just a day after Rockstar’s parent company called the pre-order figures “unprecedented“.
According to a new report by SensorTower, the rate at which the game is being pre-ordered has grown exponentially. In the past week, 1.98m pre-orders came in which is far more than the previous increase of a few hundred thousand. This total is higher than the previously reported record of 8m which was set by Cyberpunk 2077 via gi.biz. It is also worth noting that CDPR’s game had about a year longer pre-order window plus the game was launched day one on PC. The game had a large PC audience.
That near 10m copies is about $942m made by Rockstar already. That surpasses GTA V’s 24 hour record and $191m in the past week. XBOX’s share of the copies pre-ordered so far also slipped 1% this week after moving up 1% just a few weeks ago. 490,000 people pre-ordered the game on XBOX last week whereas 1.49m did on PS5.
Other data firms say the biggest week for pre-orders tend to be the one before launch so this week should be bigger. Numbers will come in early next week.
