Well, after the official numbers, we have GTA V at 52,000,000 sold in... it is gonna to sell easy +60,000,000 lifetime, and MAYBE EVEN 70/80 million.

Do you think the next GTA will sell at this crazy level? As for now, i seriusly doubt, but who know... thoughts?

The illuminati made it difficult to look into future, but let me check with my crystal ball one last time.

Don let the Illuminati cloud your vision! Please, enlighten us with your visions of the future!

I doubt it. But GTA VI sales will also be very very good.

Probably not, but who knows?

I don't think it will be close. GTA5 had the perfect set of release dates that allowed it to be a massive hit on 4 consoles and PC. GTA6 will likely release during the middle of the xb1/ps4 lifecycle and only really sell on those consoles.

Only possible if it gets a re-release at some point

Depends on when it is released. Grand Theft Auto V sold huge when the 360/PS3's install bases were at their maximum potential and just before the new generation. Grand Theft Auto IV was released only 2 1/2 years after 360 was released and 1 1/2 years after PS3's release. I believe if two Grand Theft Autos are released this generation (may not be likely), then the latter will sell more than the former. Whether or not they sell more than GTA V remains to be seen.

I don't think it's possible.

Maybe it could match the PS360 numbers, but V was a phenomenon that got the luxury of releasing on very mature 7th gen consoles with massive install bases, multiple bundles, a highly celebrated PC release, HD remasters on hot new consoles, etc.

With 7th gen rapidly dying, and 8th gen unlikely to hit the same numbers by the time GTA6 hits, while 9th gen is almost a certainty to not be in time to get GTA6, I just don't see it. Maybe if it was a very very late gen title in 2019 or 2020 and cross gen with Gen9 and with a PC release shortly thereafter.

A lot of GTAV's crazy numbers were due to multiple buyers. Of the ~50m+ GTAV sales, I bet as many as 25% of them were multiple platform sales to the same person. I know there are some that bought 3 or even 4 versions. Started with 360, 360 RRODed on them (or their PS3 Yloded and they got it for 360), bought it for their PS3 (or a new PS3 bundle), then grabbed a PS4 version when it came out, then grabbed the PC version down the line. Boom, that's 4 sales right there.

I don't think so tbh.
