Grand Theft Auto VI is expected to be a record-shattering game that will generate over $7 billion in revenue in its first 60 days of availability.

In a new post on LinkedIn, Josh Chapman, Managing Partner at Konvoy, an investement firm focusing on the video gaming and interactive entertainment industry, shared some predicitons on the sixth entry in the series by Rockstar Games, confirming the firm predicts that the game will generate $7.6 billion in revenue in the first 60 days of availability, and Take-Two Interactive will break even on the $2 billion investement into the game within 30 days of release. Grand Theft Auto VI is also expected to be a record-shattering game in terms of copies sold and revenue generated within almost every period of time, player count and viewership.

Long before we knew when Grand Theft Auto VI would come out, many have predicted it will be the biggest entertainment launch of all time, so it will be very interesting to see if it indeed will indeed be the monumental release everyone expects it to be and if it will manage to go even beyond the boldest predictions. One of the records GTA VI already shattered, however, is likely to remain unbroken for a long time. The game's development costs will likely continue to remain the highest for an entry in the series, as Grand Theft Auto 7 is expected to cost less to make, as a lot of development work is going to be taken over by AI.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches on May 26, 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.
