In a surprising but exciting update for the gaming world, Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) is predicted to generate a massive $7.6 billion in revenue within the first 60 days of its release. This estimate, reported by Konvoy’s managing partner Josh Chapman (via Insider Gaming), also considers revenue from GTA+ subscriptions.
According to the report, 85 million copies of GTA 6 will be sold to reach this record-breaking figure. Interestingly, the base price of the game is predicted to be around $80, which is higher than previous Rockstar titles. The price has been adjusted for inflation, using GTA 5’s $59.99 launch price as reference.
Chapman’s post claims that GTA 6 could become the biggest video game release of all time, surpassing records in sales, viewership, and concurrent players. The hype is so high that analysts predict over $1 billion in revenue just from pre-orders, and over $3 billion in the first year.
One of the boldest claims in the report is that GTA 6 might support lobbies of up to 200 players. Previously, it was rumored that Rockstar was aiming for 96-player sessions, but if this report is accurate, the next GTA Online could redefine multiplayer open-world gaming.
Despite earlier excitement, GTA 6 has been delayed. The new official release date is now set for May 26, 2026. Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Rockstar’s parent company Take-Two Interactive, addressed the delay, saying:
“Delays pain me — how could they not?”
Even with the delay, Rockstar is reportedly confident that they will recover their $2 billion development cost within just 30 days of the game’s launch.
