Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick said pre-orders for Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto VI reached an “unprecedented and astonishing” level during the June quarter. He cautioned that the company still does not know how the unusually high pre-order demand will translate into final sales because orders can be cancelled before release. GTA 6 pre-orders opened on June 25, and the game is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
