Looking at the estimates I wonder what made the PS4 do so well in May and June 2017 cause the PS5 was down a lot this month compared to May that year but wasn't far behind the average May for the PS4 in Europe.

GTA is insanely huge in europe..  I think its much bigger in europe than in the US even.
Yes it will move consoles, anyone thinking otherwise is not being honest.

That year, esp as its being console exclusive (atleast at first),.... its gonna help consoles sales massively.

It'll definitely help but not massively. The consoles will be about 5 years old by the time it comes out so the vast majority of people who will buy GTA 6 on the PS5 or Xbox Series will already have one by then. Red Dead Redemption 2 didn't cause a spike in sales when it came out due to how old the PS4 and Xbox One were at the time though GTA 6 being as huge as it is will for sure cause sales to spike for a few weeks and it combined with the PS5 Pro will help the PS5 have a strong 2025.

I think there is big difference with gta6 since this will is probably the first massive exclusive be to next-gen consoles only. If cod was exclusive to next-gen consoles 2-3 years ago I can guarantee that would have made a  big difference as well.
