[Estimate] GTA VI digital pre-orders: Sensor Tower estimates 7.71 million and about $751M — what is known and what is not

[Estimate] — not an official figure. Analytics firm Sensor Tower's public GTA VI sales tracker estimates about 7.71 million digital pre-orders of Grand Theft Auto VI on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, worth about $751 million, in its latest weekly update (data to November 3, 2026, reported on November 4–5). Neither Rockstar Games nor Take-Two Interactive has published a pre-order number.

What Sensor Tower estimates

• Total: about 7.71 million digital pre-orders, about $751 million.
• PS5: about 5.74 million (74%), about $559 million.
• Xbox Series X|S: about 1.97 million (26%), about $192 million.
• Trend: the previous update (around October 20) stood at about 6.45 million and $630 million, so roughly 1.26 million more in about two weeks.

What these numbers do not cover

• They are model estimates by a third party, not sales data from Rockstar, Take-Two, Sony or Microsoft.
• They cover digital store pre-orders only: copies reserved at retailers are not counted, so the real total is likely higher.
• No PC version is announced, so there is no PC figure.

Why it matters for players

The figures mainly show strong demand ahead of the November 19, 2026 launch (midnight local time) and the pre-load from November 10. They change nothing about how or when you can play.
