Analysts estimate that GTA 6 could blow its predecessor’s revenue out of the water by reaching $1 billion in sales on day one. For the uninitiated, it took GTA 5 three days to touch the $1 billion mark in sales worldwide. The latest reports indicate that the upcoming installment will reach $1 billion on the same day of its release. That will be smashing all revenue records ever documented in the gaming industry.

Another estimate indicates that GTA 6 could have an overall sales of around $9 billion after its release. Its predecessor Grand Theft Auto 5, which was released in 2013 has earned $8.5 billion in 11 years of its release. It has sold nearly 190 million copies worldwide and its revenue is now coming from GTA Online. The next franchise could beat the record and surge further generating massive profits for Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive.
