Grand Theft Auto 6 is 'the most pre-ordered' game of all time on both Xbox and PlayStation

It goes without saying (yet here I am saying it) that Grand Theft Auto 6 is going to be huge. We don't really have a sense as to just how huge at this point: Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has boasted that GTA 6 preorder numbers are "unprecedented," but he's refused to provide specifics because "the raw numbers could be potentially misleading." But huge, for sure.

Now both Sony and Xbox have joined in the 'gonna be huge' chorus, each of them announcing that preorders for GTA 6 are, definitionally, unprecedented.

"Grand Theft Auto 6 is now the most pre-ordered game in the history of PlayStation Store," Sony proclaimed on the PlayStation Blog. "Given this unprecedented demand, we’ve joined with Rockstar Games to allow players to start pre-loading the game nine days early, so they’re ready to play on launch day. We’ve also adopted a rolling midnight launch by country, beginning at 12:00AM NZDT in New Zealand and running across the globe as respective countries hit midnight on November 19."

Xbox made a similar announcement on its own website, calling GTA 6 "the most pre-ordered title of all time on the Microsoft Store" and encouraging users to begin preloading as soon as possible because of "the unprecedented demand" for the game.

Alongside Xbox Series X/S consoles, Xbox said GTA 6 will also be playable on Xbox One consoles through Xbox Cloud Gaming. That service is also available on PC, but Xbox chief strategy officer Matthew Bell confirmed in October that GTA 6 will not be streamable on our platform .
