GTA 6 Poised to Drive Billions in Revenue and Console Sales Ahead of Fall 2025 Release

Industry leaders express optimism about the game's economic impact and its potential to coexist with other titles despite developer concerns.

Take-Two Interactive has reaffirmed that GTA 6 is expected to release in Fall 2025, maintaining confidence in this timeline despite fan concerns about potential delays.
The game is projected to generate billions in revenue and sell millions of copies, with some analysts estimating $3.2 billion in its first year and 70 million units sold.
GTA 6 is anticipated to boost current-generation console adoption, as players upgrade hardware to experience the game on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Developers have expressed worries about releasing games near GTA 6's launch, fearing its popularity could overshadow other titles, but industry leaders argue the gaming market is mature enough to support diverse releases.
Retailers in some regions, such as Malaysia, have already begun accepting pre-orders for GTA 6, despite no official announcements from Rockstar since the 2023 trailer.
