The figure could make it the most pre-ordered game in history, though Rockstar Games has not confirmed the estimate.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PlayStation accounts for about 7.23 million pre-orders and $703 million in estimated revenue. Xbox Series X|S accounts for about 2.46 million pre-orders and $239 million. The estimates represent a 75% share for PlayStation and 25% for Xbox. A PC version is not currently available for pre-order.<\/p>\n        <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/user\/status\/2120186825008669053\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a>\n            <noscript>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/user\/status\/2120186825008669053\" target=\"_blank\"rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\n                    View this tweet on Twitter\n                <\/a>\n            <\/noscript>\n        <\/blockquote>\n        <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n    \n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grand Theft Auto 6 is scheduled to launch on Nov. 19. Rockstar Games is developing the game, which returns the series to Vice City, a fictional version of Miami.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pre-order figures cover digital purchases and cannot be directly compared with Grand Theft Auto 5&#8217;s launch results. Take-Two Interactive reported that Grand Theft Auto 5 generated more than $800 million in worldwide retail sales during its first 24 hours after launching on Sept. 17, 2013. The game passed $1 billion in worldwide retail sales within three days and set a Guinness World Record for the fastest entertainment property to reach that amount.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grand Theft Auto 5 has continued to sell since its release. Take-Two reported during its latest earnings call that the game had sold nearly 235 million units worldwide.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Grand Theft Auto 6 estimates cover two console platforms, while a possible future PC release could add another customer base. The estimates are for digital pre-orders rather than confirmed sales, unlike the retail figures reported for Grand Theft Auto 5.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Reviewed and fact-checked by
