According to a post from Leading Report, around 12.5 million Americans are projected to take time off work or school when GTA 6 releases. The post adds that economists warn of possible productivity losses running into the billions of dollars.
The post does not name the source of the projection or the economists involved, so the figure should be treated with caution.
It fits a wider pattern of companies and players clearing their schedules for launch day.
