GTA 6 has crossed $1 billion in pre-orders, according to a new Sensor Tower estimate reported by Insider Gaming. The analytics firm counts 10.31 million copies sold ahead of the November 19 launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Neither Rockstar nor Take-Two has confirmed the numbers.
Per Insider Gaming, the total stood at 7.71 million copies and more than $750 million on November 3. In just over a week the estimate gained more than 2.6 million copies and roughly $250 million, including about $60 million in a single day.
We reported the previous steps: 9.69 million pre-orders this morning, after $751 million earlier this week.
Insider Gaming recalls that GTA 5 made over $800 million worldwide in 24 hours in September 2013 and passed $1 billion in three days. Careful with the comparison: 2013 figures were reported sales, today's are estimated digital pre-orders.

A July 2026 Newzoo analysis cited by Insider Gaming projected $3.3 to $5.2 billion in cumulative sales by the end of week one. That is a forecast, not a result. Prices are unchanged: see our price page, $79.99 for the standard edition.
Nothing changes for players, but the figure raises expectations on Take-Two. Only an official release after November 19 will give real sales; until then Sensor Tower remains an estimate.
