Rockstar Games’ upcoming GTA 6 is seeing significantly more preorders on PlayStation 5 than Xbox, according to recent reports. The disparity has reportedly sparked concerns within the gaming industry about the platform’s performance at launch.
The heavy skew toward PS5 preorders suggests PlayStation will command a substantial portion of the game’s initial player base. Xbox stakeholders are watching the trend closely as the release approaches.
This matters for players waiting for launch because platform population directly affects online matchmaking, server stability, and the overall multiplayer experience at day one.
