Analyst Forecasts GTA 6 Will Hit $2 Billion and 25 Million Sales on Day One

Analysts at Konvoy have outlined financial and sales projections for GTA 6 alongside their vision of how the game’s release may unfold.

• The standard edition is expected to be priced at $80, with higher-priced versions also available. When adjusted for inflation, this would make it the cheapest major installment in the series.

• Pre-orders alone are projected to generate $800 million, with another $1.2 billion coming in on launch day. Within two months, the game could bring in $6.8 billion, which would far exceed estimates from DFC Intelligence.
• Total profit over the first 60 days is expected to reach $7.66 billion, with nearly a billion of that coming from microtransactions and the paid GTA+ subscription, assuming the new Online mode launches one month after the Grand Theft Auto VI release.

• The expected breakdown of copies sold includes 10 million before launch, another 15 million on day one, and 85 million by the end of the second month. However, that final figure appears optimistic given that approximately 75 million PS5 units and 30 million Xbox Series X/S units are currently in circulation.
• Another questionable projection involves the claim that multiplayer sessions could support up to 200 players. According to recent rumors, developers are currently aiming for a 96-player cap, which is half of Konvoy’s prediction.
