Overview
- Konvoy forecasts that GTA VI will generate $7.6 billion in revenue within its first 60 days and recoup its estimated $2 billion development budget within 30 days.
- Daniel Ahmad of Niko Partners describes the $7.6 billion prediction as “an aggressive forecast for the first 60 days,” noting it implies an attach rate near 65 percent on current-generation consoles.
- Rockstar Games has officially slated GTA VI for May 26, 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with a simultaneous PC launch still unconfirmed.
- Historical benchmarks such as GTA V’s $1 billion opening in three days and over 210 million lifetime sales underpin skepticism about matching those figures within a comparable timeframe.
- Konvoy’s projection includes a new user-generated content platform that would allow creators to build and monetize custom game areas, though its exact implementation remains unverified.
