ISLAMABAD – Unverified claims circulating on social media suggest that Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has surpassed 50 million pre-orders and generated more than $4 billion in revenue ahead of its planned release in 2026.
The figures have been shared by several gaming-focused accounts on X but have not been confirmed by Rockstar Games or its parent company, Take-Two Interactive.
If verified, the reported milestone would rank GTA 6 among the largest entertainment launches in history even before its release, underscoring the strong anticipation surrounding Rockstar’s next instalment in the long-running franchise.
Separately, a user on social media claimed to have pre-ordered the game for less than $3 by combining previously earned Best Buy cashback reward certificates with a 10 per cent discount coupon.
According to the user, the cashback rewards had been accumulated during an earlier purchase of a PS5 Pro, reducing the final cost of the GTA 6 pre-order to under $3.
Rockstar Games has yet to announce official pre-order numbers or revenue figures for GTA 6.
