GTA 6 Has Made Nearly $600 Million in Pre-Orders — When Does GTA VI Release and What Did the Latest Trailer Reveal?
Grand Theft Auto VI hasn't even been released yet, but excitement surrounding the game is already enormous. According to analyst estimates, pre-orders for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S have generated nearly $600 million. Players are carefully examining every new frame, discussing open-world details, and trying to figure out what Rockstar Games has in store for them this time.
Nearly $600 Million Before Release
According to estimates from analytics company Sensor Tower, Grand Theft Auto VI had received approximately 6.08 million digital pre-orders across PlayStation and Xbox as of October 13, 2026. Estimated revenue reached $594 million.
PlayStation accounts for the majority of pre-orders, with approximately 4.51 million copies. Xbox accounts for around 1.57 million.
These figures are impressive for the gaming community. GTA V has already become one of the most successful video games in history, so expectations for its successor are incredibly high. Many players hope the new installment will deliver an even more vibrant world, compelling characters, and the freedom of choice that has made the series so popular.
However, it's worth remembering that these pre-order figures are analyst estimates and have not been officially confirmed by Rockstar Games.
What Did the Latest GTA VI Trailer Reveal?
The latest trailer takes players back to Vice City, a city inspired by Miami, where luxurious lifestyles coexist with crime and dangerous adventures.
The main characters are Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Their story unfolds in the criminal underworld of the state of Leonida, with events gradually drawing them into a dangerous conspiracy.
Players are paying particularly close attention to the trailer, searching for details about pedestrian behavior, traffic, interiors, street life, and the surrounding environment.
It's precisely these little details that could make GTA VI a genuine next-generation open-world experience. Fans hope Rockstar won't settle for impressive visuals alone and will offer more ways to interact with the world around them.

Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026. At launch, the game is expected to be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
