If PC is included 50 million if it is priced at 79.99* but if it is priced at 100* then you have to account for all the people on the internet who will say they will not buy 100* games it will be around 49.9 million.

But it can also be delayed because next gen systems take longer and those versions were an extra spike they don't want to miss.

This game will need to sell 20M just to break even it seems like.

Im guessing 40-60M by the end of 2027. But it will of course keep selling and reach insane numbers as usual.

Yes, every GTA data is for ~12 months, only one for 6 months is San Andreas, since I couldn't find info about its sales after 1 year.

Depends on quality and when the PC version is released.

In the likely scenario that it lives up to the hype and a PC version is released by November 2027, I'd say about 60-70 million. The game's base price should affect sales as well. My assumption is $70-$80.

Added perspective:

GTA5's been selling some 20 million copies annually. Animal Crossing New Horizons managed to sell 31 million copies in 9 months on a single platform, though it did it during COVID and at $60.
