Take-Two says GTA 6 preorders are far above expectations, nudges yearly forecast up
In its fiscal second-quarter results, Take-Two said GTA 6 preorders are tracking far above its initial expectations, while only slightly raising its full-year forecast.
A named outlet reported this and Rockstar Games has not confirmed it, so details can still change. See the source
Take-Two said in its second-quarter fiscal 2027 results that GTA 6 preorders are 'tracking far above' what it first expected. It did not share preorder figures.
The publisher moved its forecast for the year ending March 31, 2027 from $7.9 to $8.1 billion up to $7.98 to $8.18 billion. CEO Strauss Zelnick told GamesIndustry.biz the change is small because launch is only days away, and the company expects to know much more after release.
For players, it is another sign of heavy launch demand. GTA 6 releases November 19, and preloading is already open for those who have preordered.
