VGTimes reported on October 20 that Sensor Tower estimates GTA 6 had roughly 6.08 million global digital pre-orders as of October 13, worth about $594 million after refunds. PlayStation is said to account for 74% of copies and Xbox 26%, and most buyers reportedly picked the more expensive $100 edition.
Sensor Tower compared the game with a set of big launches and says GTA 6 sits 148% ahead of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 at the same point, 45 days before release. The data covers only digital pre-orders on PlayStation and Xbox in the US, so physical copies and other regions are not counted.
Why it matters: this is an analyst estimate, not a Rockstar or Take-Two number, and it refines the roughly $600 million figure reported earlier this month. It supports the picture of record demand heading into the November 19, 2026 launch, but no prices, editions or deadlines on the tracker change.
