Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders show massive demand for Ultimate Edition
Grand Theft Auto VI is generating unprecedented market interest, with data from Sensor Tower indicating that approximately 89% of current pre-orders are for the $100 Ultimate Edition. This figure significantly exceeds the industry standard for premium editions, which typically ranges between 10% and 20%. Platform-specific data shows that 90% of Xbox users and 88.5% of PlayStation users have opted for the more expensive version.
Rockstar Games is also employing an unconventional marketing strategy through a partnership with Netflix. An event titled ‘Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look’ is scheduled to debut on Netflix on August 27. Following its Netflix premiere, the footage will be made available on Rockstar’s YouTube channel six hours later. While some rumors suggest the presentation could be structured as a multi-episode series, Rockstar and Take-Two have only officially confirmed a single extended look.
The game is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, exclusively for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. There is currently no announced release date or pre-order option for a PC version.
