Xbox Exec Isn’t Freaking Out Over GTA 6 Presales

Xbox Exec Isn’t Freaking Out Over GTA 6 Presales https://ift.tt/P2BKkTb Grand Theft Auto 6 is under two months away, but the early sales numbers for the game are already starting to get out. According to a sales tracker posted by Sensor Tower , GTA 6's PlayStation 5 presales are outnumbering Xbox Series X|S a ratio of more than 3:1. However, Xbox's Chief Strategy Officer Matthew Ball has refuted a report that Microsoft is unhappy about those sales numbers.

Tears of the Kingdom is already one of the year's bestselling games, outpacing the likes of Diablo 4 and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on physical copies alone.

For context, Breath of the Wild, which launched in 2017, has sold around 30.65 million copies. In just under two months, Tears of the Kingdom has already sold half as many copies as Breath of the Wild, meaning it could very well outsell its predecessor if it continues at this pace.
