GTA 6 sales numbers: First year projection revealed, and it's massive ...Middle East

Perhaps the biggest media release in history, the GTA 6 sales numbers are projected to absolutely shatter records.

GTA 5 made Rockstar billions, and with players waiting 13 years for the next game in the series, GTA 6 could be set to make even more.

But how much is it actually expected to make, and how many copies will it sell? Here's what we know so far.

GTA 6 sales numbers: First year projection revealed

GTA 6 is projected to sell 45 million copies in its first year, generating an estimated $3.2 billion.

This news, released by The Hollywood Reporter, comes from market analysis firm DFC Intelligence.

Fellow market research firm Newzoo goes even further, suggesting that the game will generate between $3.25bn and $5.2bn in its first week alone, as reported by Variety.

In fact, according to a report from Sensor Tower, the game has already generated more than $1bn in revenue from more than 12m copies pre-ordered, making GTA 6 the most pre-ordered game in history.

For comparison, GTA 5 sold around 11 million copies in its first week after release, and took three days to hit the $1bn sales mark, eventually climbing in the following 13 years to a whopping 230m copies sold.

45m copies sold in one year would see GTA 6 get nearly a fifth of the way there, and that's before we even factor in a PC port and sales on future Xbox and PlayStation consoles.

Of course, these are all still just predictions, and when push comes to shove, the final numbers could be much higher or much lower than we see here.

But regardless of the outcome, when it comes to answering the questions of how many copies it will sell and how much money it will make, we do know one thing for sure – it's going to be a lot.
