Today, as part of Take-Two Interactive Software's Q2 2027 earnings call, Strauss Zelnick noted that pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto 6 are tracking "far above expectations", and is certain that soon "numbers will speak for themselves" when it comes to the game.
Zelnick also promised GTA Online and GTA 5 will continue to receive updates in order to support the "nearly 235 million" units sold to date across "an unprecedented three console generations". The GTA series as a whole has, to date, sold over 480 million units. Karl Statoff, president at Take-Two, adds the launch of GTA 6 will be a "defining moment for the company and global entertainment industry". Zelnick adds, later in a question and answer session, that he expects GTA 6 to "set a new baseline" for Take-Two. "The future's really bright across the board," he notes.
